The sobering truth about getting paid on Mylot.com

What's the problem? Mylot doesn't begin to make you rich. It begin as a comunity which make you earn something as an incentive to write in this forum instead in others forum. I don't understand your problem

i cant get any referals it is driving me crazy! If I even got one active one it would make me happy!!!

well yes of course the money we get from posting is generated from the adverts around the site. However I have been paid 3 times now so something works somewhere, i love it

it doesn't really matter i don't think. just think is people didn't pay for the adds and everything, myLot wouldn't even be around. just think of it as a bonus, for the little real effort we need to put in.

Honestly it's great in my eyes that I'm being paid for my opinion.. Nothing more than my opinion. I don't have to research anything.. it's fun- I even learn things about other countries, cultures, people from different states, backgrounds, etc. So the money is an added benefit. I have no problem with others reading my opinions-- if I did- I wouldn't be here. I love mylot!

I think its ok if you are getting paid for sharing your views and giving opinions to other at the same time receiving them

I was doing some calculations in my blog http://15000dollarmission.blogspot.com/2007/01/how-do-pay-per-post-myspace.html Believe me, Mylot makes a lot of money.

well, got no problem with that really, i only think of posting and replying to discussions, that's it. i am contented with the way mylot is treating me... good day

Well if this is what it feels like then I don't mind at all. It is not bad to make money for doing something that I enjoy and would be doing anyway. I do the same thing all over the net and am not treated as well as I am here.

LOL I have no problem with it at all. I love the fact that someone actually is willing to pay me for my opinion regardless of whether it is the same as theirs or not. And if I'm helping to contribute towards my earnings by something I've posted, then so be it. I love mylot :)

I like getting paid but sometimes I hate how things work on payouts. I dont get how I can make the same amount of comments, never one liners, and one day get $1.02 for 32 comments, and the next get $.52. How'd I loose $.50? I didnt even get a star raise. To be honest I made 26 comments last night and I got almost $1.00 today. yeah it confuses me... I know once I get a real job, I will not come on AS much. But still its fun to get paid. But its usually not more than $.01 or less a posts. Sad but true

i never thought of it like i was an active advert.I may cause revenue for some companys and sometimes it affects me directly for example refferals but if it is something i am rewarded for or something that takes little effort and i do it in order to show people thing i think they will enjoy i dont see myself as a slave to large companys more as someone people can trust to show them things that are enjoyable.

I'm content, as long as I earn the little slice of capital I've signed up for.

Well, what you say is true, but it is not really as bad as that you know! I enjoy connecting to people and love voicing my opinion about stuff and if somebody pays me for that, well, even once in a while, I would still be happy! I mean, I write blogs and articles on other sites just for the heck of it, so if I get paid, isn't it cool? I'm sure that quite a people here write or respond just for the sake of earning and the quality shows and their earnings also tend to be mediocre. I feel that we should just enjoy our time around here and anything that comes our way is the interest derived upon the enjoyment!

You have to keep on posting here more and more.I do not mind if my response is loved by everyone or not.

i have no problem with it at all... in fact, i enjoy myself a lot here and i don't really care about the money... i treat it as a bonus and i am happy that i actually get paid just for posting or voicing my opinion here...

well, i can see no harm for me coz' i'm starting to enjoy the discussions. the payment is really secondary coz i haven't got any yet but of course, i'm looking forward to it. :)

Come to think of it, isn't that alright? Someone's paying you for your opinions whether they like your thoughts or not, right? And you get the chance to read what others have to say about what you think. For me, writing for this site is a hobby. It's something I feel like doing when I'm all stressed out and need to relax my thoughts.. I open MyLot and read other people's ideas, then come up with my own ideas... and get paid for them!

The money is not much to excite me. I am just happy to be here coz of all the great discussions and the cool opinions of other people.

I don't really mind or care from where the money come, i know it's a fair way and i don't think we should complain from where the money come since we are the ones getting paid just for posting in my opinion... So answering the question i don't really care hehe :).
