Why Do Some People Reach Pay Out Faster

I have read several postings here, where people have said they made payout, they only had around 200 posts. I have a little over 450 and I am just a little over half way. How is it they are already at payout when I have done twice as much and I am not even close? What am I doing wrong?

Hi thedaddym, I also took a lot of posts to reach the first payout. But i think we have to learn some from our senior in MYLot.They saying that we have to post long discussions more than very short discussions.And the quality of the discussion also will matter. SO just start more good discussion, reply to the others discussions, give best responses to the responses you got, mark them + or -,.... We do all we can the all remaining will come to you..

Thanks thedaddym, I also like my avatar.Why do you not used any avatar. I think it also will help you in Mylot. If you have a avatar then we can recognize you easily and can respond to you more. More of my friends recognize me by my avatar, not by my name!! Thanks again and Have a great day

Hi there!! I won't like to disappoint you, but i used to have the same query when i joined this site initiaaly. And after posting 100 posts, I was not satisfies with earning only a single dollar. As a result, I left this site and returned only after a year. I learnt some good ways of earning money from the people already present here and has improved somewhat!! You won't ebelieve by my post count, but i have had 3 payouts from mylot till date and i will be hopefully reaching my 4th one next month for which i am striving a little hard. I reached my first payout of 10$ by 320 posts, second one by 540 and third one by 730. In all, I have already received 34$ from this site and have already earned 9$ till date. There are a few things you need to keep in mind while posting here. First, Quality matters!! The more descriptive you are, while writing a post, the more you can earn per post. Second, You can also earn from commenting. That does not count in ur post count. So, try to keep the discussion alive and keep commenting!! Third, you can also earn by uploading pictures. And dont get disappointed. People may also earn thru their referrals, though i dont have any active referral. So keep posting!! Happy mylotting. Cheers!!

Hi there thedaddym! There are those who have made it to payout despite having less number of posts because of several reasons. It is possible that their posts are worth more than those who posted more. For instance, a member can have 1000 posts but if the quality of the posts do not warrant them much as compared to someone who just have 200 posts. It is also possible that despite having less number of posts, they have active referrals who help them earn more than others. There are also those who maximize their use of different myLot features like uploading photos, tagging, and rating discussions.

They probably leave really long lengthy answers to discussions. They probably also started more discussions, and those discussions must have done really well. They probably also rate. You also have to make sure that you tag. It took me nearly 500 responses to get to my first pay out too, so you are certainly not alone. Once you hit 500 you will be able to upload pictures, pictures really help to boost things. Best of luck to you, I hope you make it to pay out this month.

I've given up trying to figure out the pay scale they use here or whatever you want to call it LOL! Hurts my head to think about all that..*g* but I would've thought with that many posts you would surely be at the $10.00 amount by now?? I use a lot of photo's with my topics/posts when I can and I think that too helps out with the total; I've been here right at a month now and I reached my total today so I'm excited, just gotta keep posting and responding and try to work in some photo's when you can, Nothing freaky, Mylot would frown upon that if you know what I mean; good luck and just keep posting !
