Opinions! Beta-Reading Services?

Aye, what's up?

Okay, so. I've been contemplating on whether I should also provide beta-reading services since I see a lack of beta-readers here on AFF. The only thing stopping me right now is my schedule LOL. Aside from being a writer and reviewer on AFF, I've got a full time job while working on my dance career and running my online store. Do I have the time to be a beta-reader? Well, yeah. I rarely sleep and am always looking for things to do because I get bored easily so like, why not be productive right?

When I beta-read, I don't only correct a writer's English but also come up with suggestions on how the story can be improved. I also spot loopholes. I honestly feel beta-reading takes up more time than reviewing somehow (in terms of hours, not days).

Maybe I should be a selective beta-reader and take up only 3-5 requests at a time. I might be charging 5kp per chapter though.

Another thing is, sometimes I can beta-read a chapter that night itself while sometimes I'd take days, mainly because my schedule is not standardised. I don't like rushing through requests. Meh.

What do y'all think? Is anyone keen on having me as your beta-reader?
