I came to MyLot from Yuwie. So far I like both sites very much. But from what I'm hearing, people came over to Yuwie from MyLot, not the other way around. Am I the only one? And what do you all like about both sites (or just MyLot if you're not on Yuwie)? Thanks!

You're not the only one, Dawn. I have also recruited a yuwie friend to join me here on mylot. Unfortunately, she hasn't found time to be that active here yet. But she's pretty active in yuwie though. I hope she will find time soon to be discussing and promoting her business here on myLot.

I recruited one Yuwie person to come here also but she hasn't been active yet.

Well, let's wait for sometime for them to find time to come here. Did you tell your recruit how much better it is here and how easier to find cents?

to tell you the truth, I don't know who it is! her name on here doesn't resemble anybody I recognize on Yuwie, so I just welcomed her...

I was on Yuwie for a while. But, became bored with it. I joined Yuwie from a link I received from a freind on MyLot.

I had quite a few connections. Just didn't get how to navigate the site too well.

I admit it's not as user friendly as some. You do have to have a bit of familiarity with HTML to do things with pictures in your blogs,for example. Though they have made a fair amount of changes!

No I joined mylot in 2006 but its improved a lot since. It was still too disorganized and the discussions were useless back then so I stopped coming here for a year. Yuwie came out sometime last year I think, I know that I joined in October but I am bored with it. I like mylot MUCH better, and I also use myspace and facebook more... and they don't pay.. so what does that say about yuwie?

It's all about the people, I think. If you connect with the right ones,you are going to have a lot more fun with the site!

i was here on mylot first. and went over to Yuwie because of my great friend Oldbuddy. I am on Yuwie and Mylot all day, I love them both. I will admit that i make a little more money with mylot now, but in the long run Yuwie is going to be a very large earner. I like the people that i have met on both. i mean really great people. of course the money is a great bonus, but it can not compare to the wonderful friendships.

I use both programs, as I have friends on both, but have recently been using My Lot a little bit more for the discussions . Did you know that you can ask for payout at $5.00 on Yuwie now..?? Flamenca

Yes and I did that so I will be seeing my very first payout whenever they pay for March earnings. And then I can go eat lunch at Taco Bell! lol

I did come from Mylot to Yuwie. I like both sites, but I like Mylot for the fact that you can see your daily earnings here and earn more here on your own than you can earn there. Austinbell came from Yuwie, she is my referral here. So you aren't alone. At any rate glad that you are here!

I am a member of both, but I like Mylot a whole lot more, in fact I hardly visit Yuwie anymore, but you do meet some nice people there. But the whole point of Yuwie is visiting profiles and posting a few words,I think in MyLot there are some grest discussions, and sometimes the threads get very interesting.

Many of us did sign up on yuwie from MyLot, usually brought over there by friends. I am also one of them. However, I'm sure everyone has at least one thing that went the other way from the norm. I my discovering bands & musicians out there, I did a backwards thing also. I came across guitarist, Michael Schenker, when he first started his solo career. From there, he also toured with Uli Jon Roth. It was through finding their biographies in issues of a either a guitar or rock periodical that I ended up discovering The Scorpions. Of all the other fans of I have interacted with online & offline, Those discovering Michael & Uli were originally Scorpions fans first, & through the Scorpions, discovered those two guitar players.

My situation about finding these musicians & bands go back to almost the beginning of 1980. (Oopsie - am I giving away my age here? OK - I admit it. I have not had a nice, fresh pteradactyl egg in AGES, & I want one now.) I think quite a few of these musicians are from MySpace (who censors the name yuwie). In addition to a few musicians, here are also various clubs for various bands that you might find the occasional gem.

I've been with Mylot for awhile now and love it. I've only recently joined up with Yuwie and am still learning my way around it. I'm not sure how much I'm actually going to be working with Yuwie. I've gotten TONS of friend requests from people who haven't even bother to take the time to read a single blog I wrote. I have this thing about that. I want to join up with people who I actually have something in common with not just every tom, lary and harry. I like to actually get a nice crowd where people know people and serious discussions can be had.

You do get a lot of people adding you and then you get comments pinging and ponging back and forth. But there are people who take the time to read my blogs if I take the time to read theirs. I find that if you read other people's blogs and comment on them, they will make the effort to come and visit yours also. And then the ones who have the same kinds of interests will come back more often also!

yep you are the odd ball :) lol. i came to yuwie from mylot. i had seen oldbuddy talking about it on here a few times and got curious. i ended up joining under wendy though. i like talking to people on yuwie and sending funny comments that will hopefully put a smile on their face. i like mylot because i can run at the mouth and get paid for it lol. i like talking with people who have similar interests, especially tv shows, and helping people out that need advice.

I joined mylot over a year ago and recently joined yuwie through a friend here. I am still on both but more active here in mylot. I interact more better with some of my friends here than I do in Yuwie. There are a few that I met on mylot that are now on Yuwie and I still keep in contact with them there.

With me it was the other way around. But they are still my 2 favorite places, for different reasons. I also like Multiply a lot. That's where I post stuff mostly to keep in touch with family members who aren't local!

Check out mine: rddcn.multiply.com Not a money making site, just a social site. Stated purpose mainly for keeping in touch with people you already know although you can meet new people there!

I came over from Yuwie and once I did, I deleted my Yuwie account. I found Yuwie to be really impersonal. All it really consisted of was exchanging alot of pretty fairy graphics. Very little personal interaction and it didn't pay well at all. I don't miss it in the least to be honest.

Does mylot pay well? So far after 10 posts i have made $0.27 so i'm looking at around $1 for 40 posts, to me thats about £0.50p :-/

I've managed to find some people on Yuwie who are really nice and not just into posting pretty fairy graphics. But yeah, doesn't pay well unless you can build a large, active downline. I'm doing better on MyLot and I'm not as active here as I am on Yuwie. My first payout from Yuwie after about 7 months will be just enough to have lunch at Taco Bell!

I came to myLot from hearing about it from someone at Yuwie. I like you, like both sites. I like Yuwie for the fact there is more ways to interact with the friends in which we have. And here in myLot you can discuss things of the same interest. I do however spend more time in Yuwie then I do here, mainly cause I have more friends to interact with!

I also joined MyLot after Yuwie. I enjoyed yuwie for a while, but as soon as i became part of the MyLot community, i didnt feel any need or desire to go back to yuwie for any reason, and i havent been back since. I feel there is so much more going on here at mylot.. the discussions are excellent here, with such a wide spectrum and always something to meet your interests. The people are all so friendly here too, a genuinely friendly community feel. Plus, the earning potential here, i feel, is much more than yuwie.., for me anyhow. So i dont feel that theres anything yuwie has, that mylot doesnt have in an abundance! Im much happier spending my time here, and i cant see me ever going back to yuwie in the forseeable future. xxxxx

I can make money faster here for myself. But I wonder about referrals. You really make money on Yuwie if you have a good active referral base. I don't have any on MyLot so I don't know how that compares!
@dawnald (85135)
• Shingle Springs, California
16 Apr 08
You're probably right. I stay on Yuwie because of the people I've met, not the money. Though it has become a bit of a fun game with me to see if I can get a referral base going.
16 Apr 08
Yes you're right, in fact the ONLY way i could see really that you could make any money on yuwie was referrals. As i dont have a huge downline, and doubt i will ever get one, yuwie really wasnt of any use to me at all. Id imagine those with a LOT of contacts and potential referrals may do ok on yuwie, but id still imagine that MyLot has more earning potential. Just my personal opinion though babes xxxx

They are both more for fun, I think. Although with referrals possibly Yuwie has the greater potential...

It's just different. It's more of a social site like MySpace but with money involved. MyLot is for discussions. I've seen people who like one better and others that like the other better. I'm kind of addicted to both!
