How pertinent were your responses? If you only gave one/two word answers without any real thought, there's your answer. You only have 23 points so you haven't done all that much in three days. Add some thought to your response, don't just say 'yea, me too' or somesuch. Pretend you're talking to your buddy on the phone or your family over the dinner table. I made .21 my first partial day here, and have been making an average of .70 a day since. Its been exactly one week this afternoon and I was up to $4.53 when earnings updated this morning, with little or no effort. Just 'talking' ...

.43 for 36 posts is good. Remember, whatever you do on one day, the earnings will show up the next day. If you make 100 posts today you won't see your earnings for that until tomorrow. You're doing fine, keep it up!

don't loose hope I've been here for month now and still got few in my earning you need time and post a good quality post so that they will notice and respond to your discussion. You will not view immediately your earning it takes a few couple of hour to update your earning keep on posting and responding to other discussion the longer the better but make it sure that it have sense.

I think you need more friends because your friends will usaully response to you discussions. If you post discussions and had no response you won't earn and the response you post must not be a one liner.

It takes a long time for the money to start building up. On average, you will earn about 0.5-1 cent per post, which is what you are currently earning. Also, your money earned depends on how long your discussions and posts are. The longer it is, the more money you are liable to make. So start discussions that are long and make long replies to others' discussions. You will find that your earnings will go up much quicker. There are many other factors that contribute to your earnings, most of which I don't know as well.

Making money on myLot is slow. It isn't a place where you earn a lot of money. You have to enjoy being here or use myLot to learn about other things in order for it to be worth your time. To increase your earnings make sure you post at least three or four lines per response or new post. That way it is deemed of quality. However, if you are here for money, you should probably go elsewhere.

Everyone has their own way of doing things, and at their own pace. The simple fact is the more you do, the more you will earn. Just be patient and continue to do what you are doing, the earnings will come.

I would also suggest focusing on the quality of your posts and focusing on adding unique content to discussions. You'll earn more and encourage others to join in on the conversations that way. More members are likely to interact with you once you've shown that you are a quality addition to MyLot. Also, try focusing on areas of interest and participate in the discussions where you can add expertise. It won't feel like hard work if you are earning some extra cash for doing something that you would already be doing or if you are enjoying the content.

I would also make the suggestion to focus on the quality of posts as well focusing on bringing a unique perspective to discussions. Spend your time on MyLot in areas and on topics that interest you. It might not feel like hard work if you are earning some extra cash for doing something that you already would do and that you enjoy participating in.

you must respond to the posted discussion not to the posted comment of a discussion because it is not counted...be sure to participate many discussions everyday...see the wonders on earning...observe also how some member posted their respond..make sure also that you paragraph is at least a minimum of 3 sentences.

I'm still fairly new myself, so I'm not certain, but I think it takes time for it to qualify. On discussions you've started I think they only count when somebody responds to them.

I have the same question 2days ago too. I assumed earnings would be .01 per post, then I asked it here. And people says it's on the quality of your posts, how long it is and how substantial it is. And so I try my best to reply descriptively as much as possible, hoping that post would count for the day.
