I am really confused, I have responded to posts, and for the last week I have only earned .03?????? This site is going to require a lot of work just to earn a dollar.

well i briefly looked at your activity in your profile and i already see your problem. you have been a member for a week and you only have made 8 posts and they are all short posts at that. your right on a level. it doesn't pay out very well if your going to make eight low quality (thats not to say they didn't say anything important.) the problem is that here they arnt just looking that you responded to the question. what they seem to be looking at is how well thought out your comment is and how well it adds to the discussion that you responded to. its also not necessarily about quantity either cause there are days i have posted less and made more. What i would suggest you do is when making a reply to a discussion is to consider the discussion and make your reply, not only what your choice is in a this or that discussion, or what you would do in a certain discussion, try explaining why you would make a certain choice and or why you think a certain way, perhaps sharing a life experience that explains better why you would choose that way. if you do that i bet my bottom dollar that not only will the quality of your posts will be better and longer, they will also help your earnings increase. oh and where earnings are concerned...don't worry about them. just have fun with the discussions and you will start seeing your earnings increase fast. i check it once a day but theres no need to worry about all day. it adds up after a while. and what im gonna do is send you a friend request so you can pm me with any questions and so you can see if theres any discussions I've commented on that you can comment on as well. thanks for asking this question. i hope i didnt confuse you more than help you.

Start by reading discussions from your interests. As you see people that give good responses and provoke thought, send them a friend's request. Be sure all your friends are on "notify on" so when a friend starts a discussion you'll be notified by e mail. After all, these are the people that you have chosen because of their responses, so you'll be more apt to respond to their discussions. Start some discussions of your own. What's going on in your life? What concerns do you have? What makes you happy. Get a discussion going on any thing that interests you. But most of all don't expect to get rich over night. We're here to communicate with people that we have things in common with. Also, invite friends to join mylot. You get a percentage from your referrals to. Happy posting and have fun here at mylot!

sweetie you only have 8 posts. That means you have only started and/or responded to 8 things. You have to give it time. You have to do a little more work. This site does not require a "lot" of work but it does require a little. I usually post and respond to a total of between 10 and 40 a day depending on how much time I have and how good the discussions are or how much I have to say. Also are you keeping your responses and posts to a minimum of 3 - 4 sentences. Mylot earnings are based on the amount of QUALITY posts. So if they are short you won't make as much. I tend to ramble lol so I do alright. Don't lose hope or give up. Just keep posting and responding. Try to do a few more a day than you have been and see what happens. It took me about 2 weeks before I figured out what my daily and weekly post goals needed to be.

Hi sudalunts, don't ne confused. The right thing to do here is post quality discussions too. It's not just by replying that you will earn. You will be earning more if you will post quality posts that are interesting to other mylotters to respond. Once there are many people responding to your postings, you will earn. That simply means, the more you participare the more you earn. Referrals also can help you increase your earnings if they are active in participating in here. I am also new to mylot but I am not so much concern of how much will I earn. I just enjoy posting and discussing then I realize that the more I participate the more my earnings increase. So, just don't give up. Participate more, enjoy and earnings will follow. Good luck!!!

gotta write more posts...start your own discussion.it helps.Also see that your posts have more than four lines in it and also content is also very important.Referrals also help.Imagine 25% of the referrals earnings.Also upload images on your posts.

9 posts in a week? I made $0.04 on one day, with only one post and 10 minutes spent.. And I made $0.04 the second day too, with 3 posts... I've made quite alot posts today, so I guess I'll get about $0.15 today.. It's easy, but the money is just a bonus, this is like a discussion site, just that they pay their members!
