Hi, I've wondered about this for so long, do MyLotters get to earn points for blogging on MyLot the way we do for the discussion threads? Hope I get an answer. Thanks!

For blogging itself, Im not sure but for dropping comments on the myLot blog pages, I think so. When we post there our post count increases and from my understanding, whenever we get to increase our post count, we earn something from doing that. Responding to those blogs can be a good distraction from responding to other members' created discussions. We also get to voice out our opinion on the matter that was being blogged about. It is just like responding like usual but its a nice change of scenery to read a blog post or a blog article and not just the casual daily myLot conversation, as well as those thought provoking ones. Hope that helps somehow, and Im sure someone will shed the light on this matter. Welcome back by the way, and happy holidays.

Thanks for the "welcome back," bjcyrix. :) Sure appreciate it. Owlwings has already given me top-notch info, and I'm thinking about putting up a blog first, then have it syndicated here sometime. :) See you around!

You don't exactly blog on MyLot. What happens, I believe, is that MyLot accepts RSS feeds from your blog, if it is submitted and accepted, and make it possible for other members to subscribe to it and comment on it. There is no mention of payment for commenting on someone's blog or payment for maintaining your own blog. Probably the best source of information is: FAQs: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq18.aspx . Guidelines: http://www.mylot.com/o/blogsubmissionguidelines.aspx . "Add your Blog!": http://www.mylot.com/o/bloggers.aspx?a=a

Wow, this is top-notch information. You should be given the Best Response "award," but since I gave it to Jersey first, I guess I'll just have to give you a Best Response vote some other time. But thank you for the links, that sure shed light on what I've been wondering for so long. :) See you around, Owlwings!

Glad my discussion was informative for you, bunnybon7! Though, it's really those who participated in the discussion that helped, not me. Heheh!
