Hi All, I have one simple query for you. I have noticed that some of the discussions created by me do not attract any responses. Would like to know how to grab the attention of fellow myLotters for their opinion on the various discussions? And some which were receiving regular responses suddenly became. How to keep these discussions in constant attention? Can anyone suggest the best ways?

With only 20 posts you do look new to me. Slowly make lots of friends here, they do respond on your discussions, and always do comment back on the responses , if you wanna your discussions to remain alive,,, And first and most imporatnt thing, start the discussions that are intresting, and innovative.. Happy mylotting..

Well, like others have already mentioned here, a lot of times it just depends on what your discussions might be about, and if your Title is attractive enough to get anyone to respond back to it as well. Also since you are a Newer member here sometimes you just need to take time to get known by others by responding back to others discussions to make them want to respond back to your discussions as well. All I can say is you never really know what will work best for you, but just expirement a little and watch what happens as well. Welcome to myLot and wishing you the Best.

Well for starters you can request friends. Because it never hurts to have too many on here. The best way to go about this would be to request those that respond to discussions that you have started, as well those who's discussions you have responded to. Here's a link which has helpful tips on how to mylot successfully: http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/1118753.aspx It's an oldie, but goodie. I hope this helps. Good luck and welcome to mylot!
