Hi everybody. I am a new here .I just signed up mylot a few days ago . The reason I join here is that I wish to earn extra money online . At first, I feel exciting when I responsed others' article . And I find the members of mylot are kind-hearted. So I like here . But now my account has just $0.08 , I think it is so slow to make money here. I heard somebody can earn about $100 a month .Is it ture ? Why I cannot do that? How do I improve my efficiency of earning money. May be my method is not useful for me . Please tell your experience about making money here. I will appreciate your advice . Thanks

Hi woodman, welcome to myLot. Yes, it is true that most of us here at myLot signed up to earn a bit of money. I did too, but then I enjoyed it so much that I would still be here even if I am not paid. You seem to be a bit disappointed about your earnings. Please go through FAQs and Discussion Guidelines. http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx http://www.mylot.com/o/faq.aspx You earn in myLot for posting quality discussions. You are paid for what you type here. Now, if you post a discussion or respond to a discussion that got deleted because of guideline violation or against the terms of use, then you don't get paid. You can boost your earnings by using the search engine here. They give out rewards from time to time for using the search engine. And there are some tasks that are given from time to time which are a good way of boosting your earnings., Happy Lotting, and I hope you enjoy myLot as much as I do.

Ah nice, I am greatful for that information too, as I didn't know how I got rewards exactly :) May I ask, do the quality of posts increase the amaount of money you get paid, or is it by the number of words/letters you use in a post? Or would you be able to post very short comments and still earn the same amount as a longer comment? One last thing I have to ask is, if you start a discussion, do you get paid more for every person that replies to it? Thank you if you answer if, it would be greatly appreciated :)

Quality will always earn you more; though I am not really sure how quality is measured by myLot. One thing I know, is that it is not calculated by the number of letters/words. You get paid for what you type, not for what others type. Suppose you start a discussion and you get 10 responses, you don't get paid for your responses. However, if you comment back on your responses, you will get paid for that. More if you can broaden or further the topic of discussion. A pro-myLotter always advised that you comment back on all your responses. I agree. It becomes a discussion when you comment back on responses. If you don't, then it is just a question with series of answers (again quoting the myLotter).

I joined quite a while ago and made about $0.20, and thought it wasn't much so I left. But now today I've come back to it, as it really is quite fun to talk about experiences or anything you want, and get paid for it at the same time. You are right also, the community here is very nice and friendly :) About improving your efficiency, I can't really tell you, as I don't know that much about mylot myself :/ I recently earned $0.04 randomely for a reward, but I don't know why or what I did to get it. I too am interested to see what others can say, and see if they can help give good tips to find out how to earn more money with mylot.

You earned that reward for using myLot search engine. The reward is given from time to time to encourage us to use the search engine here. But the discussion search is not working right now, though you can use the web search if you want to search for myLot discussion by putting 'mylot+keyword' in the web search. A word of advice though, if you abuse myLot Search, your account can be suspended or banned. Use the search engine as you would normally use. Do not just use the search engine to get reward.

Welcome to Mylot! I see that others have suggested you check out the payment guidelines. That will help you better understand how the earnings work here at Mylot. Mylot is a great community and I really enjoy participating in discussions. The extra money is certainly an added bonus. If you're interested in trying more sites, like I do (I earn a lot of $ each month because I participate in a variety of sites) feel free to check out my profile. I have a link there to my website which will teach you more! :-)

I have made payout twice. I am a fulltime grad student and get a lot of homework. As a result, I do not get to spend as much time on here as I would like to. I am trying to find a balance so I can make extra money. I am trying to save money for Christmas this year. I also do a couple of other things to make money as well. Add me as a friend and I will give you some other sites.

I have no idea about this,too.The reason I register Mylot is also planning some money online,but the reault tell me that the effect was not as good as I expected.In my opinion,the only way of earning money is working by my own ability.

hello there, I am new here either, and yah earning money here is kinda slow. Well perhaps because this is not a get me rich quick site. patience and lot of effort would be of help perhaps. Anyhow, participating in a discussion and sharing some views are fun right. maybe you should enjoy while earning pal.
