I sometimes wonder if it is really worth investing so much of time here.To date i have managed to make a grand sum of $0.77 and hardly any social contacts, i have tried answering in my friends discussions, and except for a few, i have met with poor response....while the same time invested elsewhere would probably give me more satisfaction with regard to earnings as well as making friends.Either, i am not yet fully aware of the way to go here or else....i am not sure??can some senior members plz tell me how to tackle this site?so that one gets satisfaction and earn a decent bit of money too..??

If you are here to make only money then you are making a mistake.We never can make a living by mylotting.It is the interest that must keep us going.At times it is so irresistible and interesting to participate in discussions from the sharpest minds from the four corners of the world.

Yes i agree, i dont think that any of us, or rather most of us are great writers..it is more a hobby that gets better with practice and may be in time we are able to write to the point and effectively, so that it makes an impact.

You guys are correct. At first I was after the earning potential... but when I saw some posts that interest me and the people who post here about themselves and what they do, somehow, I can relate and find answers to my questions. Some posts here are also inspiring. I am not a good writer, but this way, I know I can improve.

Thanks a lot yadav for the warm welcome, however let me please tell you something here.I am a mother only to my children, plz don't brand me as anyone other than an individual.I see this happening with most Indians, they need to slot people either as sister, aunty, bhabhi,mother.Please leave me out of it. I don't mean to be rude, but i dont like it one bit and i am frank about my feelings. Thanks a lot for all the helpful information and suggestions that you have given me and all the best to you :)

I used to ask the same question before. When I reached the first payout, it gave me a sense of motivation to reach my second payout. And since im on the net almost the whole day on non-toxic days, why not convert it into something money-earning? I'm happy seeing my earnings change daily. And I don't reach payout monthly but in about a month and a half, which is quite fine with me. What I noticed is that it is really hard to earn at the beginning but once you get the hang of posting as many posts as you can in a day, you'll start enjoying it. I use mylot also as my way of relieving my stress. here, I can find thousand of topics I can relate to.

Thanks a lot jammyt, that's exactly what i am asking?How much of time one needs to invest here? I notice that though i have made a lot more number of postings, the figure next to my name shows just 62.How come?Does it have anything to do with tags?

I am also a new one in mylot, these days i only response other's discussion.maybe one discussion we can get $0.01, finish discussion i always fill in the tags with keyword, then add the section into my interest. next day it's exact showing how much i can earn .[ amount= response number * $0.01] i think so, not sure. till now , i do not know how to accoung start new discussion. because few people answer my discussion, i shall try to learn in the future. More important note: every response must be more than 4 lines, or we can not be paid in mylot.

Hi, i too am quite a new member here.It is a slow process of building up one's numbers and hard earned cents.the pay out is not much here, but one gets to learn a lot through these discussions.This is what makes the site unique.Starting a discussion is not at all difficult, just write whatever is close to your interest. Thanks a lot for telling me about the 4 lines fact.i was not aware of it.I have posted many one liners or two at the most ..
