My Lot Question

February 8, 2009 4:55pm CST
I wanted to know about how much they pay out per whatever like per post, per comment, per discussion, per photo or whatever. They dont really tell you much when you sign up so I thought I would ask the general public.

earning breakdown - myLot discussion guidelines We encourage our members to use myLot as much as possible by taking advantage of all of our great member functionality. Like most things in your life, we have some guidelines here at myLot we would like all members to be familiar with: DO's * Please take any warnings you get from the myLot staff seriously. * Help us out and report trolls, flame wars, and troublemakers by sending an abuse report to myLot. * Help out when you can. The myLot staff tries to monitor the site constantly, but we also need your eyes and ears to catch problems when they arise and report abusive behavior. * Be sure to rate users’ discussions, responses, comments, and photos for the new myLot reputation system. The myLot reputation rating is decided by myLot users. * Make sure you search for existing topics before starting new discussions. * Please make sure you give your best effort to respond with quality responses. If you don’t know how to respond to a discussion, go on to the next one. Answers like “I don’t know” or “I don’t care” don’t help anyone and will be removed. * Make sure to post useful links in discussions when necessary to provide authoritative guidance or to refer to a third party article. * Please use myLot messages to chat back and forth with your myLot friends. Make plans for the weekend, schedule a time to meet for fun, or just talk about what happened today at work! If you would like to know more about a certain myLot member, request them as a friend. * Make sure you ask for clarifications on discussion topics or responses when necessary or help other users to get their point across if they are not able. We like to think of ourselves as one big happy family. * Feel free to contact us if you would like to advertise on myLot. * Post in English, unfortunately the staff at myLot is not bilingual. * Please let the myLot staff know if you are having any issues, by sending us a private message. * Feel free to express your happiness with the myLot community. We love hearing how much you like myLot. Now for the DON'Ts * Create more than one myLot account per person. Creating multiple accounts is grounds for immediate account cancellation and forfeiture of all earnings. * Share PayPal accounts. Please use only one PayPal account per myLot account. * Post comments in threads for the purpose of drawing attention to another thread on a different subject. * Make multiple posts on the same subject for the purpose of getting attention paid to your issue. * Post the same response to different discussions even if the discussions are related or similar. This type of activity will more than likely harm your reputation rating. * Post copyrighted articles or photos please link to them. DON’T post copyrighted photos at all. * Respond to a discussion until you've read all of the responses. * Post "Me Too!" messages; add something of substance to the conversation. * Start a new discussion unless you have something of substance to say. * Start discussions asking for one word answers like “Yes or No”. * Thank everyone that responds or comments on your discussion. This will not increase your earnings. * Start meaningless discussions or give meaningless responses to try and boost your rating. Discussions like “What’s your age” will be deleted as well as short responses like “ok” or “no”. * Post jokes, recipes, etc. as discussions. This is a form of abuse and all recipes and jokes will be deleted if they are started as a discussion. * Start game and poll type discussions. For example, discussions like “How old are you” or “Let’s see how high we can count, I’ll start with one”. * Post any links promoting other affiliate programs or that do not pertain to the discussion. Posting the same link over and over or posting links that have no relevance to the discussion is not allowed. * Post discussions directed at one person such as “user1 what did you do today?” or “user2 where are you?” * Post discussions soliciting a response for a response for example “+” rating for a response. These are against our terms and will be deleted. * Post to “flame” other users! Being mean to others is just not fun. Anything derogatory that is directed at a myLot user is strictly prohibited. Just be nice and have fun! * Request donations, post charity requests, petitions for signatures, chain letters or letters relating to pyramid schemes, advertising or solicitations for funds, or mass mailings. * Post for commercial or advertising purposes, including classified ads in the discussion area. * Post anything that discloses your personal information or others' personal information. We do not disclose it to anyone for good reason. * Post similar or identical postings. Stealing posts from other users or posting the same thing over and over again will not help your myLot earnings. Multiple identical postings, even if legitimate, may be considered spam. * Post symbols or languages other than English unless you are asking how to translate a word or a phrase. * Start discussions on individual issues you are having with myLot. Please contact myLot via private messages and your issue will be addressed. * Post discussions, responses or comments criticizing members for bad/broken English or bad spelling. Everyone is welcome at myLot, we have users from all around the world and they are welcome regardless of their proficiency with the English Language. * Use all-caps or excessive punctuation. * Post anything that inaccurately explains the myLot earnings algorithm. Our myLot mathematicians have worked long and hard on our elaborate payment system and we wouldn’t want any of our users to make them feel inadequate by breaking their algorithm in minutes. * Start discussions promoting a milestone, such as birthdays, anniversaries, reaching a certain myLot rating, etc. This is best celebrated via private messaging with your myLot friends.

It is OK, you've done nothing wrong and you got the perfect timing to ask those questions, jodie_warner06. I sincerely admire your attitude of learning and at the same time I hope you understand why members don't want to tell their earnings breakdown. They don't want to receive any warning message from myLot admin staffs or moderators. I'm glad to have your questions.

Yea for some reason it looks like they are looking for quality and quantity and not just garbage typing. Also seems like if you start a discussion you get paid more and you get paid for the responses it gets. I think the more active you are the better. Also if you post photos and show you are participating it helps. When I signed up I remember reading something that says the more things you know something about the more money you make. Therefore I think the more intellect you have on a particular subject the more you will make so you should probably stick with writing things you know something about.

there really isnt any way of knowing how much they pay for the different things that we do on here. if you really want to know the best bet would be to contact the owner of mylot and aske them. i thought that i knew how much they paided, but then when i check my earnings i was wrong about it. i know that i've posted a response one time that got me .45 cents and then other times i have posted alot of responses just to get a small amount of money for it. i think that the reason that they dont tell us how much they pay is so that we pay more attention to the quality of our writing and less on how much we're making on here. its easy to make a lot of money when you know how much your getting paid for every thing, which makes people just post things for the money more then for quality. another thing is the fact that there are so many people that use this site and there are some discussion that get talked about many times over and over again. i know that this might have not helped you out the way that you wanted, but i guess i would give you what i have learned form this site so far. well good luck with find out how much they pay us for every thing that we do on here. keep mylotting.
