I don't remember getting higher response, my response is always low rather. But i think you can get high response if you look for topics that we might experienced from our daily lives. Everyone can relate to these topics. And also the age range topics like internet, everyone used internet and get topics that they can find in internet so they can relate to this.I think General topic with quality is needed. Me, i am starting to look around.

Thanks, I agree with you. A topic that people can relate has higher chance to get high responses. How about the number of friend a person has? Does friend determine number of responses?

I don't think so, because i have many friends and still i have few responses on my discussion. I think it is the quality of your discussion, if they can relate to that, they will response.

I agree, the quality of the discussion may associated with the number of response. Some low quality discussion such as 'what toothpaste brand u use this morning?' sometime invite many responses too. Maybe this is the thing that people call outliers LOL

If I knew the secret well I may have got more response;). Still i think its depends on your popularity and the friends you have got in your lost. If most of your friends answer most, then the number is going to bound.

The most number of responses I have received from a discussion I've started is 11. The others are mostly 3 or 4. I think it is mainly because my discussions are mostly questions that have 1 answer. So when someone had already anwered, no one likes to participate anymore. That discussion that had 11 responses is a question about preference. So anyone could answer it, and it won't seem redundant.

Make sense, an 'open' question will invites more response compared to a 'close' or one answer question. Thanks..

I think my highest was 23, which wasn't to bad but there was alot of conversation in the post.. The posts though must strike someone ones interest.. Like when I did my post about a bat in my house there was a lady that knew just about everything about them.. OMG she was amazing.. I think alot of people learned alot from her.. At least I know I did. I am not as scared anymore of bats than I was before I started that post. It does amaze me how people know so much and want to share it with others.. But knowing about the topic is a huge help to get people to talk in your post! I hope this helps!!

You prefer a good discussion between you and people who response. Good to hear that the 'bat' problem has resolved. I am still not clear, is high response will result to high $?

I don't get much responses for my discussions. Its on average 4-5. sometimes if its greater then say about 9-10. I have also seen some of my friends get hundreds of responses for their discussions.

Hummmm I never look at the number .... I never expect a lot to respond because most of my discussions are just to tell people how to make more money or to tell them how and/or where to get great software to help them with whatever program they are in. Should this be of a concern in posting at Mylot? Will it help to increase the earnings? Or the value of the post?

i heard that the more response you get from a discussion that you started the more pay you get. other than that it is very satisfying if your discussion recieve many responses!

My highest response number was about 40. The topic was about Ebay. And that was like my third or fourth discussion I had started. I know it is diffently not a lot of responses compared to 300 but it is a lot for me because I usually just get about 5 responses to my discussions. I do not know any tips but just post discussions that you think everyone would be interested in responding to.

I think that my highest response is 2 or 3. I'm not sure if that has some bearing on the payout or not. Do you think it is?

2 or 3 is too low. I think you need more friend. it is most likely that around 5% of you friend will response to your discussion. this is what marketing people believe which which is around 5% customer that see a product will buy. try add more friend!

The highest response I got was 48. I think that the only way to get high responses is to come up with a post that is one-of-a-kind.

one-of-a kind, I agree. also I think a post that people find easiest to answer also does very well. like i see a post something like 'are you a loyal friend?' got hundreds of response. even one that ask what is the brand of your toothpaste got hundreds of response (i personally dont like a meaningless post/discussion).

Most of my discussions get about ten responses. Then I got lucky and had a few hit twenty. Now I have two that have hit forty! I have no idea how to get more then that. This is partly due to the fact that I have no idea how to get large responses in general. I have heard that time of day effects the number of responses, but frankly I come here and make discussions when I have time and not just at "peak" times.
