Hi , I am a new member here . I begin to post in MYLOT in 1th Feb . Now it has passed 5 days . I found some thread about MYLOT said I can earn 1-5cent per post from MYLOT . 1-5cent per post , what is the post ? Is post a new topic or post response ? I found I post response more and more , but I earn money less and less from MYLOT . The first day that I post , I can earn more than 1 dollar per day , but I post now , I can earn less than 1 dollar per day . And I start a new discussion , I found that my post quantity aren't rise . Such as "huanghaozi(362)" now . after I start a new discussion . I can see the info still is "huanghaozi(362)" . By the way , I need ratings , too . after you read my topic , please answer my questions and give me a good rating , thank you .

A 'post' can either be a reply to a discussion or a new topic you create. =) myLot values your post depending on the content (I have absolutely no idea how they do that). So posts that really doesn't contribute to the discussion virtually has no value. When you start discussions, sometimes the number in your name doesn't increase immediately. =) Just keep posting quality responses and create interesting topics. And do upload images if you have time. =) Good luck and happy posting! =)

Don't worry all people is referring to posts as messages, they could be new discussions or only replies. I'm often replying and not starting new discussions for much time. I'm earning in the same way. I want to give you a good news: you can earn more than 5 cents from your posts (replies or new discussions), I've found in my earnings (after writing a long message), that you can earn up to 20cents per post!! So try always to do longer and interesting messages, so others will rate you positive and you will earn more and more! Keep writing and good luck! More you will write, more myLot system will pay you in future (if you rating is big of course)!

I forgot to say...maybe your earnings are not grewing up some times because you reply to discussions started from you! It's in the RULES of mylot, that you will not earn: - writing in your discussions. That can help only to get an old discussions to get again read from others - uploading pictures in your profile. Instead replying to other discussions let's you earn. Uploading pictures in discussions let's you earn more!

you earn a cent or more per discussion and per response you make. post means both discussion and response you make. upload photos to increase your earnings and try tom make at least 30good posts everyday.

Posting discussions doesn'at get you any credit unless people start answering them. That will help your pay, but not add to the number of your posts. And you should be aware that asking for ratings is against mylot rules, and some members will deliberately rate you down for that. Read the rules and guidelines if you want to do well here. And the higher rates of pay are when you also have active referrals.

I am also new here but from what I have been reading and hearing, it depends on the quality of post you make to earn a lot. That is nice considering that other people are busy and do not have the extra time to post. It is not the quantity but quality of post that it is judge, although I do not know the criteria in which myLot staff grades the post. But imagine if it will be all quantity. Look at the possibilities that will happen. First, Flooding. The gates of hell will break loose. The shorter the response, the better. The people here will just post nonsensical short response that the essence of the discussion is diminished. That is not a very good prospect if the myLot staff is very ideal about the kind of discussion we are making. Second, this will degrade all interaction just for monetary purpose. Imagine interacting with other people just for money. Is that fun? Well, for me it is not. I don't know what are other people's values. It's intrinsic. But what I do know is we can have interesting discussions, have fun, learn different culture, and the bonus is earn some money. Nice combo. A great experience.

Most of it will have to do with the quality of your responses and the discussions you're responding to - I had a quick look at some of the discussions you've replied in and a lot of them are just one line discussions that only require a one line answer. Take the time to give quality responses in your own words. As for your points - if you start a discussion you get one point when the first person responds to it - with replies you get one point for your first response or comment to each discussion.

It is better that you try to response quality responses.. If your responses are choosen to be the best response, you will earn more. There are two ways of being to be chosen as best response, first, you try to make quality responses, second, try to make friends as many as you can and let them choose your answer to be the best response..

Yes, I have learnt from your discussion and the responses of yours. About me,if you start a new discussion and many people have replied it,you will earn more money. So while you make 'posts',I think an ideal way to rise your earning is that you can make more friends! Wish to become your friend!Chinese,too!

You don't get points for starting a discussion only answering them which is why your total didn't go up. I think the amount you get paid depends not only of the number of responses you respond to but also whether they get a postive rating and whether you have had any best answers.
