How often do you tinker with your profile and interest groups?

I find myself changing my profile about once a month now since I've found a solid set-up, usually not a whole lot though. But I'll add or a remove a site for some reasons. I also find myself adding a new interest group or two each month, usually find these through discussions my friends started and when I respond it provide the option to join. But few times I've spent hour or two modifying these things to try and get the most out of the Mylot experience. Along with customizing my homepage to make that a nice home page bookmark. So how often do you tinker your settings and profile?

I have not gotten around to changing my profile page in ages. I was messing around with it when I first signed up here at mylot and haven't bothered since. But I have been thinking about changing things around a bit lately. I just haven't had the opportunity. The interest groups is another matter. I'm constantly adding new ones as I go.

Thanks for the suggestion, I should probably do that. My only problem is that I haven't been too active on any other sites besides this one. But I'm definitely going to promote some when I do find some I'm going to stick around for. Glad you were able to find some more interests to add from my list.

As a resident from the USA, I'd highly recommend Swagbucks search and win site and Quickrewards GPT site. Detailed info with payments proof for both are found on my blog.

I don't actually change it that often, but when I do, I find myself engrossed in it for hours; usually because something doesn't work right. I think you were actually trying to help me out the last time that happened...lol. Anyway, I usually like to rearrange things and fool around with the colours to try and make it more appealing. I have to say I do have a hard time on some profiles where the background colours and the font colours clash so much that I actually have to highlight the text in order to read it. So hopefully people don't find that problem on my profile. xoxo Cyne

Yeah, I hate having to highlight text as well. It is really annoying when for some reason the things won't save properly. I've had to retype some things a dozen time it seems like just cause copy/paste was somehow messing things up. Nice profile, like the look and feel of it all the way through.

Thanks for the compliment. I tried not only to make it reflect my personal preference, style and personality, but I also tried to keep it appealing for those who might stop by. xoxo Cyne

I do not seem to do it more than once or twice a year. I am busy doing lots of other things online and it is not something that I do real often, so when I try to it sometimes takes quite a while.

I probably need to review my profile. I haven't looked at it in a while. I remember when I first signed up for MyLot there were so many interest groups to join...pages and pages of them. I started to list some and then just stopped. I do add interest groups when I get prompted after I answer different discussions, but I probably need to take the time out and update my profile.

To be honest I never really change my profile, the only thing I do is add or remove links in my profile, I really should check for new interest groups every now and then but I tend to just leave things as they are. I might decide to change it a bit now after reading this!

Thanx for the tips, Im not good with making profiles but you just gave me some ideas on what I can do later, thank you!

I do not edit my interests at all, if I answer discussions and it asks to add to my interest I might add or not. As for my profile I visit it each time I need to remove, add and or put payment proofs.

Not very often. I just recently updated it but I don't really changed much on my profile. I added a couple of interests as well.

Now see what you've done? All this talk of profile alteration, and I just had to go back and work on mine again . . . LOL xoxo Cyne

Really, almost never. About my profile, it's on my to-do list for some time now, but, I never got the time or the patience to build it and put some links. I also rarely review any interests at all. I chosed them the very first day I joined MyLot and are those that I like the most. From time to time, I read some discussion and add another interest, but very few, as I'm happy with them.
