Almost every day or every week there are new members here who is being active. Some of them, frequently ask the question, how can i earn here in mylot? How do you answer those types of discussions here in mylot? By the way, i am a member here in mylot for 1 month now, yet not very active, but i must admit that i ask the same question too on my first days here. Now, i am also responding on that same questions who just recently signed up here. Honestly, i answer them based on the answer of other members who respond to the same discussions i posted in the past. I also add additional details based from my experiences.

There is NO fixed rate for each post because mylot is NOT a a paid-to-post site. It is a DISCUSSION site. We earn for our quality particpation in the discussions and earnings depend, among other things, on quality and relevance to the topic.

This cannot be ascertained or indicated. However what is required is clarity, quality detailed response. "Type more and earn more" is the principle and hence if we give one line responses we may not earn.

erjnsimon - welcome to mylot. are you from Philipines? To earn more we have to post more or type more. If we post quality responses more then we may earn more. otherwise no. this is a forum for relaxing and not for earning money. While getting friends we may earn a little.

I used to ask those questions too as I was politely and unpolitely told to go and read the guidelines. But the way I answer is that I try to explain how I have gone about getting to where I am and how I spend my time on mylott talking to friends and getting questions answered here that I can't find elsewhere, and make new friends who are interesting and starting discussions that I want some people to talk with me about and responding to the other discussions that friends have started that I would like to join in and comment on. It's fun and not only that I earn!

I feel just the same with you that I often find questions like that. But I can understand them very much. I like to give response to discussions like them. I want to help them who get their first step on Mylot. Just like you, being here for the first time was confuse me. I had so many questions inside my head, such as how to earn on this site (very very common question cos we come here just because of money..LOL) or how to give picture to my profile. fortunately, I was not shy to ask about them. and members here were very welcome and they gave me the answers and they helped me much in my first steps. And now I want to do the same like those who helped me few years ago. And I think you're a good guy cos you're not stingy to share your tips and experience here..

I think the members should search for the similar dicscussions before they ask them on mylot...The new members can have the idea about the problem they are having...Its good to browse the discussions before we start it...

The best way of answering you is to show how I address this kind of question in practice. Look at my response at #4 in this discussion: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2636595.aspx Also look at other people's responses. Which of them are 'good quality'? And why? Most people are not just asking how to earn, they are also looking for ways of understanding how the site works. Making sure that they are aware of where to find the information which answers their questions is actually more important and useful to them than the bald answer to their question. Don't forget that many people (even those who have been here a while) are interested in reading good responses. I never give exactly the same response every time (copying and pasting the same response to similar questions is against the Guidelines), so it's important to understand what problems that particular person is experiencing and to try to answer each one individually.

Hi... When i was a newbie, i did not ask that question coz i read all FAQs and guidelines. All details are there so why to post a discussion? I rarely respond to such discussion and i think that they seldom read the guidelines and FAQs. Just jump to start a discussion. Most often such discussion get deleted too. Have a nice time.

Yes, there are many new users every day here on mylot and they all tend to ask that same question. I usually tell them to stay active, give lots of quality responses to discussions and most importantly, not to worry about money. If you are active and give quality responses then the rest will all fall into place.

Hi, I am a new member of mylot. I am still learning the ropes. You can earn money by starting and responding to discussions. Have a great day!

I am new here too, but I would think just responding to posts, and posting discussions would gain you income. Why not go back to the guidelines and read the section in mylot about earnings.
