i am online from 8am to 10pm today, i didnt go to work. i just stay online and i did mylot. i replies from other discussion and my own discussion. i think i did post more than 30 and yet what i earned is only $.05. i am so disappointed because i spent all my time here in mylot. I was confused because when i spend only few hours and i replies not more than 20 and yet i earned more $.50. so how come that i only earned a little bucks. the same length of replies and same quality of replies. I am so sad with this.

Hi Charlenmendoza, bear in mind that you are staying in Philippines, and mylot earnings is based on the time in USA. You have to take in the time difference. Most likely your earnings for that day (in Philippines) split into two days (US timing). I can't imagine typing from morning to night. If you have typed article length of 400 words for each post, you can earn a lot in mylot. The highest earnings I have is more than a dollar, and that is not even more than 3 hours of posting. Just take note that you do not post anything lesser than 7 lines, otherwise you do not earn much, even if you make 100 posts.

Hi Charlenmendoza, I hope you make a lot when you add up the earnings. With one full day of online activity, you should be making much more than $1 in earnings. Actually your thread is popular, if you could reply to each and every one who joins the discussion thread, you could make a lot from this thread alone. It does not matter if you have to repeat the same words. Just a "hi xxx, thank you for your comment." and ends with "Enjoy mylotting, hope you reach payout this month". Add a few sentences to the body of the passage to make it longer. In this way, you save a lot of time. You do not need to hunt for other discussion threads. And the mylotters appreciate your response to their comments. Once with just 5 days away from payout, and $2 away from payout, I started two discussion threads. The total responses to both threads about 150, I made more than $4 just replying, and saying the same thing a hundred times!

wow, $4 for replying to those people who post on your discussion. i really want to experience at least $1 for one day work. But the highest paid i ever got is $.60. although i didnt do much work with this $.60. not like what i did last monday that i really do it full time. although last night i get, $.42, maybe they are correct, i am not aware of the time where they update their earnings. we have different time so i need to focus on replying early morning my time.

yes, i actually forget that we have different time zone. i just base it that every 10pm philippine time, they update their earnings. so i thought that after 10pm up to the next day, they will rate your postings, replies, discussion and update your earnings again at 10am, but now i know im wrong.

I really don't know why but one of the rules is ...don't even try to figure out their payment system. I find it odd that you seem more upset at earning only .50 here than missing a days work.

i get it. I'm pretty much the same. I almost never take time off from work. When I do it is only about once a year...maybe twice...it is to catch up with family and friends. it really hurts the bank account but have to do it.

missing my work is my decision and i am happy that i take some leave off. in a year i only got 3 days off. I go to work even if i am sick but when i decided to be absent its because i just want to indulge myself of being at home and never think about work. Its also my decision to stay online the whole day, i was just shocked about my earnings and i want to share it here. but it never hinder me to still doing mylot.

we should be awarded by our employer lol. even at school i never absent, i always present because my believe is i will miss a lot if i missed one day either in school or at work. Like me i work as telemarketer and i have my own quota so if i missed one day, i know my quota will be affected. So as much as possible i make sure that i will be there always.

Well .50 for me is a lot especially these days since myLot is kind of getting frugal. I am getting somewhere around .30. But like the other responded said, you haven't made more before the cut off time of 2:30pm. I guess you should adjust your output like you can work more in the afternoon up to night then you can work slow the next day in the morning. I guess that will give you time to do your work then maybe at night, you can myLot yourself away and still earn a good pay.

so its 2:30pm philippine time is the cut off time. i noticed that they update my earnings every 10pm philippine time so i thought that they credit my work up to 9:30. but now i am aware of this what i will follow your advice, i will do it afternoon up to night time since i am working in the morning. In that case i can focus my time at work and i will focus in mylot the whole afternoon. thanks modstar for posting and also thank you for the idea. happy mylotting

Try to see your earnings the following day, your other posts might missed the cut off but would be credited to your earnings the following day. That happened to me I was wondering why my earnings quite lower than am expecting but when I checked my earnings the following day, that was much higher than what I have worked for. I understand we have differrent time zone, especially if were from the Philippines. For 30 post you'll be entitled for at least 30 cents if you don't have violation plus your other posts. See, you're wondering why sometimes your less than 20 replies yet you earned more than 50 cents. Maybe this would answer your question and hope you wont get sad next time.

yes, i got more compared to the $.05 i got last monday. I got $.42 tuesday so maybe it was credited to me. But still a little bit confusing since i didn't stopped mylotting tuesday. i still replies from other discussions and to my own topics, so how would i know if they pay the work ive done last monday or the work i did last tuesday. anyways for me not to be disappointed, i think i will just forget and just enjoy mylotting.

Like they say, it usually depends on the "quality" of the reply, though I am not quite sure myself of what is of quality content. The question is, if the reply is not entirely within the topic opened, will it still be counted? Moreover, if the reply does in fact fall under the topic yet is found "too vague" does that mean it will still not be counted? I do also wonder about ratings. They say when a reader rates your reply, it adds up to your rank. so if someone ranks high, does myLot equal it with your earnings account? So far, I got .98 for being here about two weeks or so. I usually do this for fun.

hi miloque, thank you for replying to my post. Actually i think everybody is at lost when we talked about mylot, how they base their payments. if its quality, i think all my reply is long and with quality. but we really dont know. and also i want to know what is the exact time they start and finish rating our replies or post. is it server time or not. with that i know when to focus my time here in mylot. Your good because you get $.98 while me the highest i get is i think $.60. Anyways, happy mylotting to you and i know you will reach your pay out soon.

Possibly, your posts have not been credited yet. Why not try and check the next day if yours have been credited. And, like one of the respondents here said, do not lose your spirit. Just continue and enjoy discussions. I kept on tracking my earnings almost everyday and just like you, increments are not really that high. I tried to tweak the way I view mylot. I savor the discussions here and I could give my insight when I feel that it could be of importance to others. Anyway, continue posting and be happy posting. Have a nice day!!!

hi and yes, i get bigger amount the following day compared to $.05. the following day i get $.42 so maybe they credited the work i did last monday. well honestly aside from enjoying mylot, and having new friends , i also want to earn extra bucks that is why i making sure that i earned more than $.50 so that every month i make it the pay out.

Such a sort of thing happens to me once in a while. When I thought I put greater effort into posting, I earn a little; but when I just linger around here, replying to a few discussions randomly, I earn more. This is really confusing. I have no idea of the credit system here, maybe they evaluate our earnings by other unknown rules. Anyhow, forget it and happy mylotting.

well, your is not a problm at all. many a times even i have noticed that my points have not increased in proportion to the work that i have done here. even i feel a bit sad but later when i log in here after some 24 hours i see some more points augmented. hence don't worry, if you have done some work you wold surely get the results also.

yes, the work i done last monday was credited the following day. I was just closed to the idea that they update earning every 10pm so from 11pm work up to the next day is credited at 10pm and that i am wrong. now that i am aware of the server time, i will change my time here in mylot. thanks for posting and happy mylotting

The Amazing part is that I posted 3 new Discussions and got $0.12. isnt that interesting. also when i applied for task They got decined even when they were properly made with more than 6 paras of data... I am wondering what system is used to judge quality content.

My friend - First of all, I recomment not staying online from 8am to 10pm.....its' not good foryou :) As well, it does't really matter how many post you do - it matters the quality of the post. For example, if you right 30 posts that are one line each, it's not going to get you anywhere. as well, it could be that some of the discussions that you responded to got deleted for one reason or another.....Do not wory....try to write quality posts and i'm sure your earnings wil increase. Good luck!

thanks leyisa for replying, i promised myself that i will not do it again. Although i did enjoy doing it because i was able to post more replies and i learned lots of things by reading someone discussion or replies. yes, i will post quality reply although i think my replies are all quality. happy mylotting to you also.

Wow, 8am to 10pm? That's 14hrs in a row! Haven't done that so far. :) If I were you, I would also feel the same way. You even skip from work just to be online. :) But as the others have suggested, don't think too much of the income here. If you forget about it and just post and post and post to any discussion that appeals to you, you will be surprise to learn that you earn a lot. :)
• Philippines
18 Jun 09
yes 8am to 10pm, actually i didnt do mylotting the whole time, i also play farm town and update my facebook. what i mean is that i posted more than 30 replies and yet my income doesnt change a bit. but as your advice i should not focus on the time, i just keep on posting and posting and start discussions. i know at the end of this month i will reach out my pay out.

i think its common yesterday i posted more than 20 responses on mylot,but i got only $0.03 when i saw it today,i feel so helpless.
15 Jun 09
All depends on what other people rate your comments and also how populer the the discussion are. But if you thinking that spending all day on here will cover missing work its never going to happen or everyone would be on here lol Hope yor earnings pickup and don't forget to add friends the 20% you get from them all adds up.

Its really confusing how they rate your reply. Before i thought that i know how to make it bigger, by replying more and more, not a one line reply but more than three line and qith some sense, quality replies. the only different yesterday is, i did it the whole time. so now im again wondering how did these things work out.

i can see your point but i think popularity has some control. and people rule the movement. lets bet on a roulette wheel. at least i can control that the chances for getting some money :) awee to be sure, to be sure, the pot of gold is merely an illussion, but the chase is worth it if you enjoy what you do.. i should know, i'm an internet marketer. http://000url.com/aboutme

oh,this is the special people to read your answer and replies,and value its' anwer question,and you can see your money which you earn everyday,not disappointment of it,you put your energy into it,and very be serious to do it.you feel not only the mylot com have be a lot of interest. and you have appreciated a lot of fields,at the same time, you can increase your experience and knowledge of all fields, and add up to living common knowledge and other valuable things,you are not concerned about you money getting,from your side,you can add some certain skill and willing train to do some things,such as patience and willings or some other characteristic of yours.i think these qualities are so important that these can make you big some things.

may be how people respond to your discussion and may be how you expect to earn that is why you are disappointed to your earning
