I was helping a friend sign up for myLot account. She had to sign up for pay pal as we know. I began to wonder what is the most you have ever been paid out? Has anyone gotten anything larger than $10? If so what's your secret?

When I first started here it was easy to earn abour $30.00 a month. Theypaid much more than they do now. They paid for each photo you added seperately now it is included in the discussion earning.

Heather, I've noticed that I've been getting more recently than I was at the beginning of the year, although I've not really spent much time in the last year.

Just when I think I know everything about myLot it changes. I am constantly finding out new things. I didnt even know about the picture issue. I thought it was about adding them to your profile. See I learn something new everyday. dl

Yes, I have received more than $10 a couple of months on here. I will earn a little more than that here this month. I think that the most I have ever made is $15 and I was thrilled with that. I am hoping to find a site that pays a little better than this for writing for next month as I need to pay for some car repairs. I hope that your friend does well on here and enjoys the site. Please remind her that this site is more for fun than earning money though.

If you find something better, let us know. So far I have not found a better forum, or one that is so reliable. There are sites that pay for content, and I need to get active there myself.

You are absolutely right my friend! myLot is about fun and friends. I sometimes forget about the earnings. I happen to look up and see the amount. I cant believe how much fun I have on a daily basis just chatting to people. My husband loves myLotters and he's not even a member. He likes the part that I am not talking his ear off. lol thanks dl

I haven't even reached 5$ yet.. heheheh I only post once in a while when I have free time in my hands. I am not really that conscious about how much I would be earning in mylot cause I am here simply to learn, comment, post questions, ask advices, and sometimes help others by giving them advices. The advice I could give you is, don't watch out for your earnings, but instead, just have fun here at mylot, that way, you don't just earn, you also have fun. ^_^

First off dont worry I didnt receive my first pay out until about 3 months ago. I didnt really grasp the whole process. Now that I have extra time, I have become a crazed myLotter. I will be sleeping and think of a great topic for a discussion. I have them written down all over the place so I wont forget. I did earn alot this month. Meaning I received my second pay out much more quicker than the first. You will too I promise. Welcome myLotter. dl

I have been paid five times so far and each time it was more than the minimum. Usually I make around $15 in a month at myLot. I started a few discussions, some of which had many good responses and helped to increase my earnings, but mostly I do it from my own responses. I just keep on writing. I find new discussions every day where I can add lengthy responses. I know I could earn more but I just do what I like doing at myLot and get paid for my participation.

You seem to have the idea of it. I am catching on too. It took me a while. I thought the discussion had to be about an important issue. I didnt understand that it can be about anything that's bothering you, making you mad or happy. Now that I know that, I have been earning better. I tend not to focus on my earnings. I do it mostly for the fun of it. dl

Hi dloveli, I have made $15 dollars one month. I am not sure how exactly I did it because it is the only month I ever crossed 10 dollars on it's own. The first time I missed by a couple cents and I have just made my third payout a few days back for the month of July/August. I don't post a lot so this is why I don't make payout every month. I think a lot of posting and putting some pictures as well would help though.

I found out that when posting a quality response with a pic I made $0.03. I only made that one response that day so I am quite sure it was only that earning. I could imagine that 1 cent was for the post, just about making it, a cent added for quality and lenght and perhaps also one added for the pic?

Hey, you can put them in discussions and upload them to your interests. You don't get money for pictures in your profile. It won't make a big dents in your earnings but it did help me lots.

yes, I received more than $10 in a month since I have been here. I am a member of mylot for 4 months now and when I reach pay out this August, it will be my 4th month receiving pay out from mylot. the only thin I could tell you is spend more time here and be sensible with your response and the topics that you are going to make. Rate those who respond to your posts and start interesting discussion that your friends would be interested to relate to and give their response. Good luck.

Thanks for the advice. I have been here for almost a year and I still can grasp it all. I thought I was doing well. I guess I was wrong. I love it on myLot. I love being able to discuss issues of importance as well as silly things. I like it better here than myspace. dl

Oh really? I am also a member of myspace but never have been there since I signed up. I just use myspace in promoting my article in Associated. How can you earn money in Myspace?. I have no idea about it...

There was one month that I worked my butt off non-stop at mylot and I made $30. I know other people who have lived on here and made $60 by themselves.

They must have been on here constantly! I am on alot lately because I am waiting for my new position to start. I took a small vacation. So I have alot of time to spend on myLot. I have only made $13 and some change. However I have been receiving pay outs more frequently than I used to. There is hope. If I can do it any one can. lol Happy MyLotting dl

The other month I made $30. I did so by being very active and adding photo's to my discussions and responses. I also made sure that my responses and topics were of the best quality I could provide and I would reply to most or all of my replies. The only time I did not reply to them was if there was really nothing else to say but 'thank you'. I have been working for 32 hours during 4 weeks this summer vacation and I have hardly been active in those weeks. That's why this month I can hardly make payout. In the day I didn't work I have been catching up with friends and my boyfriends so there wasn't that much mylotting time for me. Being active is the key, I have referrals but none of them are active at the time being. They earned me 20 cents of the $30 so most of it is my own work .

Good for you :) Considering it is very possible to make $1.00 a day it is not that hard making $30 a month if you are on daily, perhaps you can make even more. It's just that sometimes I have no time at all for mylot and other days I am very active, so my account swings in all kind of directions. In that specific month I made 0.72 a day on an average when I took the total and devided it through the total number of days in that month. So you can try and see your average and you know what you can add up to. As long as you are having fun, keep going girl .

Thanks for the info. Its exactly what I was looking for. In other words the more active, the more earnings. I have been very active the last few weeks. I am waiting to begin a new position. I am loving the time spent myLotting. You have helped me much thanks sista! dl

Yes, I have, but not horribly so. In the beginning the pay per post was higher. The people who get more often answer in tabs, which I do not do. They post, respond, comment, use smileys, rate news articles and just spend lots of time making posts that are at least four lines long.

I try to do all of those things. It does seem to be working. Where do you get the smileys? I havent a clue about those. I am hoping that I can keep on this pace I have going now. I am addicted to myLot its crazy. I love hearing from others and making their aquaintance. I think there is something here for everyone. I even had my older daughter sign up. I didnt know about the referral process. I thought they just let myLot know who referred them. Oh well. Next time. Thanks Gerty for all your help. dl

I've been paid 3 times so far, all last year, my first payment was over $15. the amount paid has fluctuated a lot over the time I've been here, however recently I've noticed that I'm getting more for the few times I've been on here. It's beginning to be worth while to be back here.

I have only been paid once. I will receive the second this month. I found it to be alot of fun. I enjoy the time I spend myLotting. I find it soothing and therapeutic. I dont think there's anywhere else I could talk all I want and be listened to. My husband plays like he's sleeping. lol Gotta love him. dl

My first payout was actually quite big but it was the combined earnings for two months because I did not make enough for the first month when I became active in Mylot. I did get more than $10 on my third month but failed again on the next month. Cheers!!

Welcome my friend. I am glad you have joined and decided to respond to one of my discussion. I hope we can be myLot friends. I enjoy hearing about different people and their families. I am out of work for the summer so I have been on myLot alot. I have been earning quite a bit more than usual. My advice to use is to make your discussion interesting, responses more than 4 lines. and keep it friendly. Oh and posting pictures with discussions is good too. Read on I am sure the others have more help for you. Welcome once again and thanks for sharing. dl

hi there! my first payment i've received from mylot is $19.09 i guess because i wasn't qualified then for the first month and it was being credited a month after, so in other words that was for 2 months of work.,

The most i have earned from mylot was only slightly more than $12.. hehe =D THe secret to it is actually very simple, it all depends on how long u wanna spend your time in mylot, scanning and searching for discussions to respond to ^_^ ON top of that, mylot only wants quality posts rather than quantity.. So it's good that one should at least respond with 4 lines with their post ^_^ Other than that, put in one's best in responding to order to earn the best repsonse ^_^ All this little little things will add up to boost your earnings ^_^

Yes, my first payment I was paid 13.47 dollars but sadly I had worked here for like 5 months before reaching payout. I was sooo elated when I received a mail from moneybookers. The secrete is to respond to discussions, start interesting one and so on. the second payment I reached payout after two months of hard work.......I was motivated by reaching a 500 mark so that I can paste and after that I was dying to get the 1000 mark...........since then I have relaxed and I have problem responding to discussions here.

It took me 2 months to get to payout the first time. I reached payout shortly after the first of the month, so I had the rest of that month to add to my earnings and it was $11. and something. I've reached payout every month since then, but I've picked up a couple of active referrals along the way and that helps a lot. It seems that the longer I'm here, the more per post I get paid. I don't know if it's because I'm more comfortable with the forum and contribute more quality posts, or if the length of time here and number of posts has something to do with how much yo get paid. I quit trying to figure out any details, and just come on here when I have time or when I think of something I want to discuss, and just let everything take its course.
