Hi Roman,

I would also recommend Mturk.
Another good example will be "Crowdflower" , here is a tutorial also:

Hi Roman,

Mechanical Turk would be ideal for an annotation task like this, assuming
you have some funding to pay the Turkers.

Their tutorial [1] explains in detail how to create custom tasks.

Cheers,
Chris
