Trying to Make Extra Money

Canada
February 12, 2009 2:32pm CST
I stumbled accross myLot this morning. I'm not exactly sure how it works though. You get paid for starting discussions? Do you get paid for replying? I have been a stay at home mom only since january. I looove being home with my son, who is almost three. BUT money is starting to get tight. We are unable to save anymore with only one income. We are instead just getting by and staying even with where we are. We want to save for lots of stuff though, so I either need to get a job or find another way to bring in some money. Will I be able to make money with myLot?? Thanks for reading!!

YUP, you get paid for interacting on the site, be in joining in discussions, posting discussions, referring people to do the same and posting pictures. there are pretty simple rules, but they dont tell you exactly how much you will be paid for posting, its more quality over quantity on here. if you like to take surveys, i made a website of free to join actual survey sites that can help you make some extra money. most of the surveys i've taken lately are about grocery shopping and children.. just add me as a friend and then check out my profile.. thanks and welcome!

You answered this question well. This site is a good site for corresponding and earning a little extra money. You do have to watch the rules but they are not really hard to deal with. Quality is important also but I find that dedication is also very important. I am interested myself in making more money but I am leery about gpt sites. I want to be careful of the scams out there.

First of all let me say Welcome to MyLot, I hope that you enjoy it here and make plenty of friends. To earn money on here, all you do is join in the discussions, answering others questions . Try to make the discussions and posts as descriptive as possible and remember to always add the Tags at the end as well. I was told when i first started that you don't actually get paid for posing the question in the first place, but you do get paid in answering those who have answered your question, and also rate them as well with the + and - at the side. I hope this helps you a bit, but the most important thing to do is relax and enjoy yourself on here, make some friends and then you will be answering each others questions and feeling part of a friendly community. Best of Luck and Happy MyLotting

i guess it is impossible to make huge sum only by posting answers and joining discussions, figure out a more effective way to earn money is your only option

Yes definitely you can earn here in mylot, though its not that big but still its an extra cash so it can help somehow. If you work hard here you may get more, really depends on your participation. Quality is important. You can either start your own discussion, response to other discussion, get referrals and upload pictures of your interest which is pretty simple. Apart from that reason of earning here, you will really love the site as it really fun. Personally i was addicted when i was new like everybody here experiences. Anyway, you could pretty earn a good amount of extra cash here if you did all those. I've been here for 3 years now and and i'm always thankful i came acrossed this site. Now, i welcome you here and have fun mylotting. See you around :)

uh. I have a question. why don't you find a Job? I don't think it is a good idea to make money in this way. you really need a job. what can you do if your child growes up? he will need a lot of money. where is your husband?

Wow, that wasn't very helpful at all. Or nice. Obviously I know that a child needs money, mine is three. I don't want to find a job because I want to stay home with my son, instead of him spending 9 hours a day in a daycare. What do you mean where is my husband? It is none of your business. Where do you think he is?

You don't make very much with mylot. But there's other sites you can use as well. Some people have found neobux.com useful. Also, theres sizeofpaper.com and PickJack.com apparently pays you every two weeks. With myLot, you get paid for starting discussions, replying to them, rating posts, and posting pictures. It takes time to get a lot of money. When you leave a responses it's always good to make it fairly long. Hope you enjoy mylot. Have a good day.

I just came accross this site last night... I made a couple of posts earned myself 10 cents I think this is awesome... I have some spare time sometimes and I just come on here post around get involved in dicussions and I earn $$ pretty cool. If you think of it... you earn 10$ a month or more and you can go and buy a game or something off the internet. I am doing this because I need to pay for a ventrilo server every month and I dont have anymore $$ on my paypal, so I hoping to make 10$ by the end of the month to pay it off for my clan. Pretty cool stuff =-D

I've been on one week today - have spent a total of about 3 hours all week and I am at .85 cents! lol - Don't look to make it rich! But I found if you have a question or an idea or something anyway and you are going to put it out into the world anyway you may as well do it here and earn a few cents!

You get paid for basically everything that you do on this site. But I would not recommend that you consider mylot a job. you will earn a little each month. If your family is getting by on what your spouse earns and your just looking for a little extra saving money then you can defiantly use this site. You also can look into the other money making sites in the internet. you will find that a lot of people on this site use many other sites to earn as well, and most would be very happy to help you out.

Yes, actually you get paid for creating discussions, responding to discussions, placing images, etc... you need to make quality discussions and responses in order to get paid fair enough.. and yes, it has to be 3 lines and more.. i was able to earn $7 in two to three weeks and that was by making quality responses.. if you want to earn more then you need work hundred times harder.. good luck

i think if you want to make money, mylot is not a good choice. you can try some other ways. however, you can find many useful information here. for example, if you want to find some good site to earn some extra money, you can just search the discussion about this site to see whether it is scam or mot or how much can you get from it. i joined mylot 3 weeks ago but i have only earned $0.79. very little. so please try some other way to earn money but don't give up mylotting. it is really a good site. happy mylotting!

Welcome to MyLot and have fun here! I have been here only a week, but do see my earnings going up to. I got a referal the other day, too, so I make a few extra cents a day on her posts, too. You may want to look at doing other things on other site in order to make money, but at least this is place to come and chat about it and make a few friends along the way. Enjoy the ride, and have a great time here!

Hello! I just joined mylot recently hoping to earn extra money. Just like you I have been a stay at home mom - for 5 years now and yes money is starting to get tight. I have been looking for a homebased job or business but i just cant seem to find one. I have tried to get into franchising, currently i am in selling insurance but lts a hard time. My husband won't allow me to get a full time job since my kids are still young. Ok so now I think i am not answering your question but i am asking the same thing - will I be able to get that extra income I am looking for in Mylot?? :-)

You basically get paid for discussing things with other people here by replying and starting discussions. I'm a SAHM too, and do things on the internet to make an extra buck or two. I really enjoy mylot, I have gotten paid by them. It is nice to see a little money coming in and knowing that even thou I'm at home I'm doing a little to help out. You wont get rich here and it wont really pay a bill but it does make a little extra. Good luck and happy mylotting!

you're in the right site to earn a little but you had mention dedication is important, true should you just be dedicated to this site, you'll earn more. Others are making more than 2 dollars a day. I think that's good enough by just staying at home with your pc plus enjoying getting along with online friends. There are other sites but I'd prefer staying at mylot and learning how to increase my earnings...Happy Mylotting, Enjoy while esrning...
