I'm new here. If you clicked on my profile, you'll see I'm just few days old here. I'm a blogger and gained lots of friends doing that. It has been a very meaningful experience. But when I asked a good friend on how to earn money online by writing blogs and such, she directed me to myLot. I'm still not familiar and feeling lost here. I don't even know how to upload a profile picture. I tried to but failed. I need some smart ideas on how to get started and how to make the most of my time here, not just for monetary reason. I don't want to get around clicking things and mess up.

Hi Ruthsm, Welcome to Mylot! When I first joined I felt really out of place and had no clue what to do. I began by responding to discussions that grabbed my attention and reading through a lot of the responses. Doing that kind of gave me a feel of the people and how the discussions worked. Also, If you haven't already read the FAQs and Guidelines then you should do that because it will help you to avoid some common mistakes here. I made some friends that had been here for a while and they really helped me out when I got stuck or had questions. Good luck and hope to see you around in some of the discussions!

Thank you for the warm welcome. Yes, you're right. After few days of being here, I met nice people, very friendly and helpful. I felt at home already in just a matter of days. Thanks for the suggestions. Blessings!

the best way to start is to post good discussions in large topics, like Friends, Life, People I personally don't have Life or People as interests, but I do post lots of discussions in friends and cats, even a few in mylot and computers A good solid discussion, like this one, asks at least one question, and responding to other people's discussions. Another thing is to respond to people that respond to discussions you start - nobody really knows HOW they calculate the payments, but the more you do here, the better chance you'll make payout...

You are certainly very much welcome to myLot community. I am sure you have sensed it now, that myLot is a very unique place to meet and make friends with wonderful people from countries around the world. As I see it, that is the true value of myLot. I have been very impressed with the people who had developed this program, bringing the opportunity for all who wish to cooperate with one another. I joined myLot over two years ago, and I am very glad that I did. Best wishes and happy myLotting !

Just keep on hanging here in mylot and enjoy the community, forums, and friends. Express how you feel, but make sure to be subtle in some aspects. =)
