hi mylotters, how are you?
i can see a lot of discussion about how you can earn more money, and something more like this, and i thougt: what was your fist impresion they have had about mylot? the things i know are that this site its gratefulto know the opinion about unknowing people aruond the world, and you could earn money using the mechanism that mylot gives us to earn money (writing, posting, refering, etc).
i remember that i knew this thanks a friend i have, and he said me that posting and writing i could earn money, and inmedialtly i signed up, and the first time i havent have any idea how to use it, but then i could see how is the mechanism to use it, but i found with the pass of the time that its dificult earn a looot of money doing this, but in my case, i have started to see that thiis site i would like because i could improve my english, practise and correct some grammat mistakes i could have, (knowing that sometimes we make some mistakes knowing that we make this), and i could practise my english outisde the classroom of my english institute, and was fantastic...
weell, this is my story about my fist impression about this site, and i would like to know what was your first impression about this, with the propose if we share a few the same story, or has a totaly different story about this!see you later, and thanks for the responses!ali!

Well, I enter here a few days and don't know much things about the site yet.My first impression was just confusion, 'cause I didn't know anything, but I learned fast, and now i can browse on the mylot without big complications, and I really liked here, 'cause I'm from Brazil and my english is very awful, and here I can practice, and this is very good. I just don't earned much money, actually, almost nothing. But that's ok, with money or not, this is very cool.

Oh, Uruguay? You're the first person that I saw of Latin America here! Your English is very good, and yeah, the translator is always with me, and i'm still terrible. I can read in english well, but i can't speak, it's a disaster. Si! yo hablo portuniol, i think. Spanish is seemed portuguese, but this can confuse. Sometimes I try to speak spanish, but I think i'm really bad. Do you speak portuguese?

I still am not real sure how MyLot works. However, I have seen a little increase. So it encourages you to continue to write. It seems like you really have to write a lot to get an increase in making anything substantial. One thing I can say, it is the first place I have seen it really work. Makes you have a lot more faith in the website, when you hear you can make some additional cash, and actually see it start to accumulate. I wonder if there is a method to the madness. I have heard pros and cons, that some people say you have to write a couple of paragraphs, to make it work. Then I have seen others say, write for 60 minutes a day and see what happens. I think I will keep trying and do just that, "see what happens."

But I mastered my way through and this Site teaches a lot things that you wonder about at some time always appears here, you learn about the different Countries and how the Laws are different and all that
Also you make some wonderful Friends here and like you say, like in your case it helps with the Language
This is a lovely Site and yes there are stumbles but they can be overcome

At first, I can't understand it. It's like I'm confused on how to do it. LIke any other sites, it is natural, I started picking my interests and then uploading a photo and then I started my very 1st discussion. They said you get paid in myLot by simply posting a discussion, blog and commenting, but the truth is only if your performance is good. When I started my 1st discussion, many responded and they really helped me answering my question. Yes you're right in my lot you'll learn from other people. It's like learning and earning at the same time. But one thing I love about myLot is that when you want an answer or opinion, you know where you are going to, especially if you can't say it to your friends personally. Happy posting!

It was so long ago that I honestly can't even remember. I THINK I joined up hoping I could get rich quick but after I realised it would take some work I went off of it and then a few months later I came back on after reading something about it and I'm so glad I did since I absolutely love myLot! (:

I have the very same impression as you about this site. At first It took me a while to get a very good understanding about the website and how it worked. I found out about Mylot from a different PTP site. Now I spend more time here than the other one. lol. I like how people can help other people with their questions and earn money at the same time. It really is getting me to improve my English and Grammar and improving my typing speed too.

When i forst joined i thought i was gonna make money really easily like one minute you type and the next Boom! Money!.... but sadly it didn't work out like that like i expected, i realised i had to put effort and time into making money here in mylot.
Mylot for me was a nice experience, the whole website was really nice, everthing was simple you type to earn money that was the money making, you could also earn a few freinds along the way as well.

Honestly telling you my 1st impression was mylot paying us if we write. Actually one of my friend she asked me to sign up here. As it pays us.
But lot of things i learn from here. so now it's mylot impression to keep continue here that i am learning lot of things here.

I was totally unaware regarding mylot at the time of signup. I thought it was for earning only. Once i have started in participating discussions, i got interested in discussing more on mylot, rather than concentrating more on making money. I have added my interested, i have been adding photos of my interest. It is really interesting to be here and chatting with friends in mylot.

I don't even remember how I was first introduced to My Lot! I remember being quite sceptical though as regards My Lot being a legitimate site! Once I got into the swing of things and started posting and then eventually reached payout I was very happy! I also like the fact that this is one place where you can actually learn a lot from those that have more knowledge in any particular area. I think that this is a very good site in terms of improving English communication. I love typing and this is one place where I can really hone my typing skills! I have made quite a few friends in the process and this can only be a good thing! Overall I'm extremely pleased with My Lot and will always recommend them to potential users! Andrew

I want to develop my English, because the first time I saw them using English language and I wondered if I could speak English. I came, and my English messy then began to adjust to a good grammar. But until now still misinterpreting the sentences that are often used. And of course here also increase your knowledge of any existing.
