Recently I found out that when I used the search feature in mylot, I was granted a reward respectively for $0.03 and $0.13.
There was a message as below:
" You have just earned a mylot reward! This reward is worth 13 cents."
ha! ha! ha!
This message appeared in the screen after I just used the search feature in mylot.
Does this reward really grant for the members who used the search feature in mylot?

Congratulations on your reward.
It has been a while since I have been rewarded for the search. I have used it regularly, but no reward yet. I mainly used for searching discussions and sometimes for other things as well. It is very useful and very rewarding. I hope to get rewarded soon.

Definitely right buddy.
I did get few times, but I never realized that it was from the search feature which I used earlier.
Now, I received the message by telling me about my rewards in using the search feature of mylot.
You can check your mylot earnings at the rewards column.
Just for your information, not all the while I collected the rewards.

About one year ago mylot started rewarding us for using the search.
You can also set it as your default search by following the instructions in this discussion:

Thank you very much for your information, mysdianait.
For me, I never expect to earn $0.13 in one search.
Pursuant to the terms, I would like to iterate and remind the members for not abusing the mylot Rewards program in order to increase their earning.
If any of the members are caught in abusing this feature, they will get the following message and fine:
1. We may see some warnings and other preventative measures that while using
myLot Search.
2. Our account will be canceled without warning. All of our earnings will be
forfeited.

If you use it correctly, just like you would any other search engine and not to search aimlessly hoping for a reward, then you will never see that message

I received a warning once. I make translations and I need to search for various words and information. Some things are hard to find so I put different key words and I try again and again. So I was suspected of abusing the system because I did many searches. Since that time I'm careful and I don't use the search too much.

It is really discouraging the members to use the mylot search feature.
If the system suspects the members abusing the use of the search feature, then they should automatically not be granted any reward.
Moreover, we have no idea the way the system to judge out if we are abusing the search feature or not.
The punishment of canceling the account and forfeiting the balance are too heavy.
I just hope this search feature can be widely and commonly used as other search engines.

I did receive rewards a couple of times. Quite a surprise ! But, I was not sure if they were for using the search engine. I do use the search engine off and on, and I am quite happy with the finds, very helpful for my market research work that I often do.

Great! You are using the mylot search feature all the while.
If you check your mylot earnings column and find the figures in the rewards, that should be your earning by using the search feature.
Anyhow, just remind you about the terms in using the mylot search feature carefully.
Never be trapped in forfeiting all of your earning if you are considered abusing this search feature.
Good luck.

Hello there.
It is no longer new. Almost all of Mylot users (except for the newbies) are aware that we are rewarded by using the search engine.
IT is given twice a day or within 24 hours of continuous use. Meaning you need to do a lot of searching to do that. Ten or more searches will earn you one cash reward.
I am one of the benefactors of this reward. Usually , if I stay online the whole day, I get rewarded twice. One in the morning and the other is before midnight. 
. So far, my earnings are considerably higher than what you earned but this doesn't make me abuse such feature. I am always wary not to overdo my searches or else I won't be able to use the feature for a couple of hours again, which is an inconvenience especially when I set this as my default browser.
I am enjoying such benefit, though.

Thank you very much for your sharing.
When I just joined in mylot, I knew about this feature.
However, I never understand the way the system works.
I never believed I could earn the rewards in this feature until I received a message which told me about it.
After starting this discussion, I realized that many other members were not having their belief in using this feature too.
Anyhow, glad to exchange and share our information here.

I'm a web copy writer so god only knows how many searches I do in day. I'd probably get banned if I made it my default engine.

This is really an easy money to us if we change our online search habit by using the mylot search feature.
When I read about the reminder for not abusing the mylot search features, I am a bit worrying if I shall trap into it accidentally.
The punishment should not be too heavy.
Whoever is caught in abusing the mylot search feature, his or her account will be terminated.
At the same time, the balance in the account will be forfeited.
This is the risk in using this feature.

You should try harder and more frequently use this search feature to earn the rewards.
ha! ha! ha!
Install this search feature to replace other search engines, then it is easier to use it frequently.
However, just keep in mind for not abusing this feature in your search.

I didn't know that!
I guess I haven't read the guide clearly.
I actually didn't even know that mylot could be used as a search engine.
However, this is very interesting to know.
Thanks for sharing.
I will definitely be using the mylot search engine from now on.

I feel a bit comfortable to hear from you.
Hence, I can seen some fruitful in my effort to highlight the mylot search feature to other members.
ha! ha! ha!
You should use this search feature wisely.
The consequences in abusing this search feature will be regretful and painful later.
