Your own myLot discussion

Australia
November 8, 2009 8:15pm CST
Quick question: We all start discussions, people respond to our discussions, so if I respond to a comments made on my discussions, do I earn money on those too? Or do I only earn on other's discussions that I respond to?

YES! That is what makes it a discussion and that is what myLot is all about. Commenting on responses on your own discussion will not cause your number to increase but it WILL cause you earnings to go up if your comments are of quality. Just saying 'thank you' is not enough. You earn for ALL your own activity as long as it is within the Guidelines.

That's great news. I was wondering about it and thought it would be stupid not to get earnings from my own responses on my own discussions. It's all about interacting with other people so I am pleased to hear that I will get a few cents here and there.

The fact that your earnings counter do not increase is probably what is putting off some members to respond to comments on their discussion. They think it would be a waste of time to respond on discussions thinking that it won't enable them to earn. But this barging technique, as one senior mylot member has coined, it actually one of the best ways to earn through participating in discussions.

Yeah mysdianit is right. We have to respond on the discussions that we have posted here in mylot. A discussion is not a discussion if the one who open it is not responding on it. Just what we do in the school when our teachers is discussing on the front they used to ask question so have an interaction and they are used to expound our answers to clear it out and add some information if needed.

Hello Friend, Welcome to Mylot. I can see from your dicussion that you have some doubt regarding how to earn at Mylot. Take it easy , when you get more familiar and go more around at Mylot, slowly you can know more about Mylot. What I suggest is you need to read the Mylot guidelines since you are a newbie here. It will help you to know more about do and don't at Mylot. To answer your questions in your discussion : 1. We get earn when we start a new discussion . 2. We get earn when we respond to other discussions. 3. We don't get earn when other give response to our discussion. We will only get earn when we reply back to the response we receive. All the post I mention above need to be write in at least 3 full lines content, less than that you will earn anything. Lets say you reply a response with only one line, you don't get to earn anything. The more you write for each posting, the more you earn, provided they are as descriptive as possible.

'1. We get earn when we start a new discussion .' IF it is within the Guidelines and it receives 2 responses (or 1 response and 1 comment). If it remains with no responses it does not earn us anything

Thanks for your comment, indeed very useful for me and for other members too. I see some members like to create new discussions but do not reply at all. Perhaps they should read this useful comments from you! But I have a question here, one response is made from others, and how about the comment you mentioned, is it have to be from other member or from the discussion creator himself?

Hi. I think if I understand this correctly you only receive money for the first response you receive on your discussion. You also receive money for responding to comments others have made on your discussion. You won't get any money for other people responding to a comment on your discussion.

From what many of us have found out here, you can earn from Starting New discussions like you have started here, and then you also earn from others responding back to those discussions, and you responding back to them to keep your discussions going, and then also when you go around to other discussions in here responding back to them as well. Wishing you the Best.

Hi onlinemoneyjourney, Quick answer: Yes, you earn for every comment you post on the response to your discussion. Your number will not increase for the comments, but surely you earn, as you have done some activity and here you are paid for every activity...... ehheeehhh

Hi onlinemoneyjourney, indeed we only earn from our own discussions by commenting on the responses we receive, and try to ask questions in your comments to maybe keep the dialogue going too and that way you'll make friends here and find out who you like to interact with. Another point about it is that those who never respond or only respond to a chosen few, soon stop receiving responses to discussions as no one likes to be ignored, so if you post a discussion be prepared to answer each responder in an original way. That way your earings will increase substantially.

And then they start a new discussion about why their discussions earn them no money at all.

Thanks for the advice Thea much appreciated. I know what you are talking about being ignored. I have responded to a few discussions and nothing - they are obviously only starting discussions to get responses to earn money. Little do they know...
