earned $500 from MyLot -- is that true?

Philippines
July 4, 2012 7:26pm CST
A member claimed to have earned $500 from myLot and I wonder if that is true. I can't find her myLot profile name on the article, so I can't confirm if this is an active and real member. However, she made a good write up in describing what myLot is. She mentioned that she makes $4 a day on posting and about $2 fromt asks. So she earned $500 in a span of 3 months. Here is the link to this blog: http://expertscolumn.com/content/how-make-money-mylot-i-make-50000 Does anybody know who this could be? Do you think it is really possible to earn $500 here in myLot in a short 3 months time?

I don't believe it is true here on mylot, you'd have to do an awful lot of posting for that much money everyday non-stop here. But, I do manage to make more or less on average $5. on mturk (via amazon), that is my goal for the day every day there now. I want to build up my earnings to pay for some of my medical bills. Several times (through June 12 to June 22) I worked all day and made $11.45 to $16.58 per day but it's not that often I get that chance, I just made sure they were fairly accurate otherwise they can dismiss your tasks there.

I don't see how you could make so much, and so consistently on here. On quadruple earning days I didn't even make $4 and I was very active for over 6 hours. Unless they spend 24/7 on here, I don't believe it.

I can say it must have been true. Mylot is very legitimate and if you have referrals who are as active as most of us here, i would say it is quite possible for you to earn such an amount. the biggest earnings i had in a day is about a dollar and a half. That is only my participation. When my referral was active i go as high as 2 dollars, not including rewards when i try to use mylot's web search. :D I'd say this person probably has a lot of referrals and is active himself. =) so it is possible.

She didn't mention any referrals as source of earnings for myLot. She only said posting a whole lot and doing tasks. I wonder if anyone here, knows who this is.

Oh then if we are only to base this from the claim that 400 posts a day.. well i think that is not right then. I have counted my discussion in mylot and well all i can make of for a day is about a hundred post - yes and that meant i am here for like hours upon hours with about 2 paragraphs long of discussion. And i make about $1.5 for that... and well if for 400 posts a day that is too much and is impossible. i would make such a number of post, as i have in other forums but in answer to discussion games, where i would only rhyme words, and so on but never with the one i have to think, reflect and share a deal of discussion. =)

Right. I've learned from vets that its not about quantity but quality here in myLot. Big earners don't do it by posting by hundreds but by participating in an active discussion. And, referrals, too. I even tried to be online more than 12 hours a day during my first month, but no way can i make 400 posts a day.

I have never made $4 a day here. On the quadruple earnings day the most I made was $2.35. So on a regular day I definitely do not make that much and I am usually here a LOT! I think you would have to be here ALL day and night to make that kind of money here...Just my thoughts and opinions though...

Sorry but it is both. I don't care what anyone says. If I posted one comment that was really great is that going to make me my money for the day???? No!

I don't think its about how many you post. It may matter, but that's not the wise way. As most vets say, its all about quality and not quantity.

If it is that great and other members would respond, and you respond back to make the discussion active, then you'd earn better than posting hundreds of topics and comments. When I say better, i mean more efficiently. Less effort, but more Substance.

he is just lying there,i also read her article in that site and asked her to give her mylot id and she refused,so its clear that she is just making crap so that she could attract new members with her referral link as she is saying such big words i.e. making 500$ and making 4$ just from replying discussions!!!

Did it have her referral link on there.. I didn;t notice. Yeah, probably it was just made to attract referrals.

I agree with people when they say she is full of it although I don't know why she'd lie since she didn't put a referal link. The only way you could do this is if you had hundreds of active referals. And how the hell can one person make 400 comments a day on here? I probably make about 10 to 20 a day and don't even make $1 from that. Active referals would be the only way that I could think of to make about $4 a day and really who here has a even a few active referals that come on daily and make a few posts? I wish I had a few like that at least then maybe I'd make $10 to $20 a month :)

It's possible that there was meant to be a referral link but that ExpertColumns removed it according to their Terms of Service. As it stands, it a completely useless piece of BS which helps no one!

No, she didn't put any referral link and that made me wonder why she would talk a lot of crap about myLot and not get anything out of it.

I have seen that article before and I have a pretty good idea of the MyLot username of the person who posted it (it is NOT 'facevalue', by the way). The person I suspect has NOT made anything like 400 posts a day (or anything approaching that in total). I seem to remember that the person claimed, in one discussion I saw, which has since been removed, I believe, that this was because they had closed their account and rejoined. They would not, however, reveal their old username, so there was no way of reliably checking. Because of the evasiveness - notice that there are several comments which ask for her username, none of which she replies to - and certain other things in the article which convince me that she is not telling the truth, I think that this article is complete BS and joins the many others I have seen which make completely false and exaggerated claims for the amount of money it's possible to earn here.

If I read her article before I got on myLot, I may have been lured that easily, too. And, later would realize that its all just a hoax and I was stupid to believe. HOwever, I would enjoy the activities and continue with it and forget all the crap that got me hooked to myLot. If she was able to get referrals from that link, and those people were really after the money making part, they probably only lasted for a week, max.

I'm not saying. it's not possible but it will be extremely rare only because, most of the time when it comes to earning money on mylot is self labor. Some of the earnings come from referrals you get 25% of what they make but, you will have to get hundreds and hundreds of referrals to get this process on the move. You probably will have to rarly be active maybe just post once a week and you will be working a part time job.. or peak time job. on mylot haha.. So yeah its possbile but almost impossbile. :)

Wow, that's horrible I know I have blog but I'm 100% honest and it's mostly tips on my blog to maximums your earnings. I guess she is trying to get 400 a month with referrals getting then all happy sign up and realize wow.. I'm not even close to 400. So.. Yeah they will most likely think bad about mylot and not join and tell others.

She was just really exaggerating it and close to lying. If she wants referrals, she better be honest about what myLot can really do for them, and she'd be sure to have happy and long term referrals. She can simply tell the world that myLot lets you enjoy posting in forum topics while getting paid for their contribution, and that should be enough to lure other people to join in.

jureathome Normally discussion where we discuss the amount earned through mylot etc. -- are deleted. This is a forum for us to earn something more and enjoy sharing ino with friends. I do not who is that member. It is given as 'facevalue". If one works hard for two or three hours a day may be he can a few dollars. I cannot specify the amount. good day

Hello jureathome, To earn $500 from Mylot is not possible even if someone writes responses for whole day and $2 from task you won't get that much tasks here.I joined Mylot 14 months back and have earned $75 so far after being an active member here.I think she has done this to get referrals otherwise no one in my knowledge has earned $500 in 3 months.

You can if you change your setting in your preferences to that amount, but it would take a while to get too. Because that would be very hard to make $500 dollars from mylot in one month it would have to take several months and lot of hours online to get that amount. Some people choice a $100 as well. I stick with $10 because then I know I'll make that amount with in one month if not two depending on my free time.

May be if one has got very good marketing capacity -- gets roughly 100+ referrals who also work actively and this person spends roughly 10 hours a day-- it may be possible to make 100$+ per month. good day.

she was asking about mylot at least that is what I got from the question. What your friends do on here will not affect how much you make and you would have to get a lot of new people every month to make that kind of money.

She mentioned she made $500 in 3 months. Averaging $160 per month. I don't think her referrals helped her much, either. If her referrals expected to earn as much as she claimed and realized its not that easy, I dont think they'd last a month on here.

Im really not sure about that, i think the only way you could do that is to be constantly on your computer for hours and hours putting in post after post but that will require a lot of work.

Yes it is possible but it is difficult, we have to work hard and have to spend lots of time in typing . I heared some mylotters are earning nearly $5 per day but daily is not possible

In this case, it would appear to be a fabrication designed to bolster the earnings of the author of that piece. However, technically, it is possible to earn that much on here during a three-month span. It is not, however, likely.
