Welcome to MyLot! You earn money here by actively participating in discussions (including using suitable photos to illustrate your discussions), undertaking any tasks you find suitable and by using the Search bar in the way that you would normally use any search facility. All of this (and much more) is described in some detail in the FAQs: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq.aspx The first section to look at is the one on "Earnings", which will tell you all you need to know about setting up a PayPal account (if you don't already have one), how and when payments are made, how earnings are calculated and how often they are updated. It is also very important that you learn to avoid some of the common mistakes that may people make which result in their posts getting deleted. Be careful to read the Guidelines through several times: http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx Many discussions are, unfortunately, posted which violate something in the DON'Ts section and these are very quickly deleted. Many unwary people will respond to them, nevertheless, and will simply waste their time and not earn anything when the discussion disappears. When you come to post discussions yourself, make sure that they make it practically impossible for anyone to post a short response. MyLot is all about two things 'discussion', which means, more or less, 'having a conversation with many people', and 'quality', which is all about being descriptive, original, relevant and as informative and valuable as possible. It takes a little time to get used to the site and to find your way about. The best way to start is to look through discussions which interest you and about which you have something of value to say and to post responses. You will only earn for what YOU type and the better quality it is, the more you will earn. Many people are puzzled that their earnings don't show up at the top when they have responded and commented many times. This is because MyLot takes many things into account when it calculates the earnings and the calculation process is run every day sometime after midnight (according to MyLot time, which is shown at the bottom of every page) and you will see your earnings for the previous day posted at between 9am and 11am, by MyLot's clock.

You start earning from the moment you first post. How much you earn (if anything) depends on the quality of your post. Just a few words is likely to earn little or nothing. You will SEE your earnings the following day, when the days earnings from midnight to midnight, MyLot time (shown at the bottom of the page) are calculated. They are usually posted between 9am and 11am (again, MyLot time NOT your local time!).

you will start to earn money when you post. Correct me if I am wrong, but make sure you post with sense because it will not earn you a money.

I better suggest you to read the instruction before you start to comment on discussion or post a new discussion. Here the link http://www.mylot.com/o/photoguidelines.aspx This is a site which paid for comment in discussions. You can comment as much you want per day, no limitation i think. Just go through after clear you doubt in guidelines. Good Luck, my best wishes.

You have given the wrong link above. I believe that you meant to give the link to the Discussion Guidelines, not the Photo Guidelines. The correct link is: http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx Please make sure, especially when answering newcomers, that your information is absolutely accurate.

participate.. Find something that someone asks or says that really intersts you so you can make a good comment. Don't just say Yes I agree. What I like to do is tell something that happened to me that might help the person. Or tell a person why you think he's wrong if you don't agree. And by the way, that's how you want to answer. Don't be negative or cut somone down. This is not YouTube or yahoo. Your post will be deleted.

Hello lilmar4, As the people above me told you how, I will also say this to you: "Participate in discussions, don't just post a reply then do not go back, that's rude. I mean, just discuss with people here, don't mind how much did you earn but have fun in this community" Regards, chichard
