Tasks is a pretty general term. I am not referring to a construction type job. I am referring to any task that can be accomplished over the internet. A task such as fixing a website, doing research for someone, photo touch ups, tutoring with a shared monitor, answering technical questions, etc..
Amazon's mechanical turk barely pays any money. You can spend hours completing mechanical turk tasks and not even make a dollar. Probably something closer to Fiverr, but the other way around. Like on Fiverr people post things they are willing to do for 5 dollars. What about a site where people post things they want you to do and are willing to pay you X number of dollars to complete the task.
