Its very bad that I don't get referrals. Currently I have two. one of them is active and another one is inactive. I have found many inactive referrals earlier. One day I just sent a message to my inactive referral and asked why have he joined the site if he does not participate in it? He told that here earning is very slow. He also said that he will make more money in a week than he used to make here. I wished him good luck and told him that if you can't earn elsewhere come back to myLot. Its the most enjoyable earning place. His comments were showing his inexperience. Two weeks have past and I am waiting for his reply. Is this a recent trend of trying to become a millionaire overnight?

If this inactive referal doesn't participate then how would he expect to earn? In the future, make sure you share with him the followings: - We earn by starting quality discussion, including while replying or commenting - Do very easy task - Refers friend so he can earn 25% from them - Manage in getting higher reputation: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq11.aspx By getting higher reputation "star" will boost his earning - Goldem Rule: Treat others as he would like to be treated. By rating other people comments is a start. It's important he contribute to his discussion including to other people comments! I did recall having a friend here who start discussion but never contribute once and that person complains that earnings are slow! Such complains are unfounded to say the least! Participations = earnings Again, by pointing the above to this inactive referal, hopefully this will ease up his understanding!

i think that you must change your strategi to convince your referal... don`t onlu offer them about money and earning.. but convince them that here they can get many fun and good friend if they want to repair their english, here is the best place

They are not bothered about making their English better. Neither they are interested in making friends. They need only MONEY. So, I think myLot is not an ideal place for him.

Do you send them a PM welcoming them and some tips about how to use myLot when they join? Let them know that until they reach 100 their earnings will be slow but then after they get their star things will pick up. During that time they can get familiar with what to do here and read the FAQs and Guidelines so that they will not lose their posts. MyLot is not a get rich quick site but earnings do add up and it is absolutely possible, and not difficult, to reach payout every single month just with the discussions. Many new users reach payout within a month of joining when they do things the way they should be done. I hope you will have better luck with your next referrals

I think a lot of people are getting very lazy and hoping that they will find a "get rich quick" scheme which will indeed help them to get rich overnight just like you said. I use websites such as this just to chat to people, and the earnings really are a bonus. It's one of the main things that makes it so much better than other websites where you don't get the chance to earn in the same way as you do when you're on here. I have no active referrals anymore. I earned a lot from a couple of them at one stage but they've slowly all stopped responding and now I am left with none at all.

I thik it's ok there paying us to post things that we would be posting anyways from what i've read most people probably would still be on this site if they didn't pay us I porbably wouldn't be on so much if they did'nt pay us but i'd still participate all teh time jsut not as much and i think in the near future the earnings will increase as the popularity of the site increases.

Well for one thing, when I joined, I didn't join for the money! I joined to participate in the discussions, which means a lot more to me than money! If they joined for the money, they were mis-informed! If they are interested in becoming a millionaire overnight, you are not going to do it on a discussion board !

Hello, Yeh I can totally understand what you are saying about new members not staying active for very long. Most of them dont even read the rules and instructions properly before they start so they make mistakes and dont earn any money. myLot has never been or claimed to be a get rich quick site, sadly alot of people dont understand this simple little concept, their lose not mine. Doing something that you do everyday with people ie talk and discuss, and voice opinions is what myLot is really all about. Yes , you can make some money, and every little helps nowadays, but it's not the be all and end all of myLot. Hope you have some luck with finding active refs.
