Reaching the minimum payout is really challenging

Philippines
October 17, 2010 11:10am CST
I've been here in my lot since september and now my current earning is $3.5 dollars. If I have to sum up all the days since I joined it is 1 1/2 months and counting. So if I have to continue here in my lot, I think it will take almost 5 months in order to meet the minimum payout. Sometimes I've been inactive for a short time but my hobby is pushing me to continue here in my lot. It is really a big challenge to reach it and I'm still hoping I will meet it sooner.

The payout is elusive but not impossible. You have to be here a fair bit, and there is no sure way of calculating what you will earn. If you were to look at an average of about 2c per post, that would mean about 500 posts a moth.

I myself do not really know how much I earn per post. My first day here, I only earn $0.06 but my second day was $0.43. I couldn't remember if I really have responded to a lot of topics that time. I think, the quality of our post matters the most. I am not that worried that I wouldn't reach payout easily. I tried to be more active in here and so far, I can see that my earnings is growing. I am on my second week in here and already earn more than $1.

yea, its real hard. but just keep using the search engine. i got about 50 cents from there already, and i used it about only 15 - 20 times! i currently have 1.23 in my account after 1-2 weeks here.

Yes, this is true. This is also what I do since we've been asked to do some research. I used the search engine and I got rewarded of great amount.

I have had the same problem too. I have been hear for almost two years and i have had one one payout. It took me almost a year to get it. I an now about halfway to my next one. I can spend only so much time on mylot perday and sometime I do nto feel like loging on at all. there are other time when I can't log one becase of ohter things going on in my life. so sometimes I simpley do not have the time to spend on mylot.

Mine is very near to the minimum payout; but I have a problem registering my account information because myLot rejected it. Please help me process my paypal account information if you reach the minimum payout. I have already a paypal account, trouble is myLot rejected my email address I registered with paypal. I received a notice from the admin (myLot) that they'll terminate my account because I discussed it. My purpose is only to seek advice from other mylot members. I hope you save this response.

Mylot has already sent my cash out two weeks ago into my paypal account and I am yet to transfer to my eon card this week. Am I glad that I have reached it less than a year. Try working on the task tab if you wish to reach your cash payout faster :)

You right, my friend. It is very challenging to reach the minimum payout here. For me I have been two weeks since I login because I am inactive in 6 months and trying to reach payout at the 14th day of November and am now having $8.79 earnings and hope I increase that... Have a nice day!

Don't sweat it. My first month at mylot I made cashout... but I was on here over 8 hrs a day! I commented all day long, I created tons of topics and checked to make sure I responded to every single comment so I didn't hurt anyone's feelings. It was grueling work. For 20 dollars for a whole month? Doing the math it isn't really worth it to me. But, here is my new plan. I get the mylot digest and comment on those topics. It doesn't take nearly as much time and I won't sweat it. I have other places to earn money and my top priority right now is school anyhow. I know you really want that cashout, but it will be there when you are ready. And you will be so much happier for just relaxing and enjoying your time here. Trust me!

It is really challenging, my bf also wants me to continue here when i first became inactive. I have been here for 1 year now and have been inactive for almost 6months, just logging every month to check on the latest updates here and then that's it. I came back because i feel like trying to earn again but found out that there's so much more than earning here.

It's becoming hard for me, I'm member from august and earned 2.92 until now, I'm still far. While I know, I'm not that active and don't post that many discussions and responses. I use MyLot more for a relax on my spare time and I am not dedicated to post every day. I will take a while to reach minimum and I know it's hard, but I try everyday to post at least something to make a few cents.

I have also been part of mylot since september. And I have a little less than you have. I have been inactive so many times that is why I can even reach closer to payout. But I am determined to reach the minimum payout. That is why I have 10 comments per day rule. I can always try to go higher than that but the minimum would be 10. So maybe in this way I will be able to reach payout in no time. I see the payout as a challenge as well. I have other sites that I joined also. And I am hoping I will reach their payouts in no time.

I also find that it take long time to reach my minimum payout. I have been working here for 1 month and my account has 1.8$. so i thing it will take 3 to 4 montha to reach the minimum pay out. I got a maximum of .35$ in some days . If i work like that every day may be i can achieve it in one month. But it is boring to do thatmuch in one day.

duh those who have joined my lot only for earning money are sure to get disappointed. My lot is not a place if you want to earn good money or think of a get rich scheme :D. Its a place primarily for discussions and having fun, Its just that these people are being generous and paying you a little money in return which social networking sites like face book won't do. It would be better that you post quality discussions and quality replies rather than replying just for the sake of doing it. You won't get many cents if your reply is not worth it. I am near by your posts still above 5$ may be because My replies are quality and quantity based. Referrals are something which are going to earn you money as well. So tell friends and people you know to join mylot if they are spending their time earning nothing on those wooden sites :D. Its better than they make use of mylot for learning and helping other in return for a small gift ;). Read the Faqs 10 times so that you will get a clear idea how you can reach the payout fast :). I agree with others here "Set A goal and work on it, Stick to it".

Hi sis! Maybe you could set a target each day so you could reach payout easily. I joined last week and currently have $1.15. My highest earnings was on my second day which I received $0.43. I am not that active too but I think if we will try to respond to every topic here at mylot (well, that would be very hard I guess since we can't really relate at every topic) but if you have target, try to give it some effort to your post. I sometimes do researching if there's a topic that I really can't relate. Yes, let us take reaching the minimum payout a challenge. I know it wasn't that hard at all. We can do it sis!

it's not that much of a challenge. If you give yourself a goal each day you will see you can reach it in no time. and if you are serious about reaching payout each month then you need to build your mylot downline. that's the best way to make sure you make payout. if you can get at least 5 people to love mylot as much as you, you will make payout every month.

Hi, Do you participate in every posible way? Do you comment on the answers to your posts? Do you upload pictures? Do you give best responses? Do you make friends and expand your interests? I don´t post more than a couple of posts a day but answer a lot more. And when I answer, I try to express what I want to say. Only when I´m away for some time or my computer freaks out (as lately) I don´t make at least $10 a month. Having friends help too. Think of mylot as a big party at your house. Mix with guests and talk. This post you just made is not worth much if you don´t comment on our answers. What I´m writing now is MY participation, not yours. Read the rules and guidelines and you´ll do better. Take care and happy posting!

To my thinking the payout is just a bit of jam on the bread. Were there no payout I'd enjoy the discussions in any event..Its the communication with a wider band than my buddies close by that keeps mylot a place to be..Learning, growing and enjoying..With a bit of jam on the bread.. ENJOY!

you may have to post lot of question with in discussion guidelines of myLot and respond to question , you can reach pay out soon. Bit when we act seldom, we may take time to reach pay out. I am yet to get my first pay out an I am nearing the Payout.

Its not as hard as it seems to reach the payment. Try posting a few more posts everyday and also using MyLot search as you might be rewarded with a cash bonus of anywhere from 1c-12c(most I won was 12c yesterday). This will help you reach your goal in no time and of course a referral or two wouldn't hurt

I am a newbie and am interesting in hitting the minimum payout as well. You are right it appears like an unreachable task.
