Anyone Ever Have Trouble Getting Referrals On Sites Like Mylot

This is a problem I have a lot. I just can't seem to get people to join sites like Mylot and Swagbucks (personally, I'd much rather have referrals on Swagbucks lol). This is no matter how hard I try or what I do. I mean, I HAVE gotten referrals in the past for Mylot and Swagbucks but only a handful on here and one on Swagbucks. And none of them are active anymore. One or two were active for a while, but eventually all just gave up and stopped being active. Does anyone else have a problem getting referrals? Where do you typically get them from, if you have any?

wow! i am in the same boat as you Darth. i never seem to get referals and even if i do, they simply are not as much as i am interested in the site. This can be quite hard and frustrating at times i can really do, with some refferals in mylot It would be much easier and fast to reach payout too that way. how is swagbucks like? i think i am a member of that site. i am not sure. how does it work?

The same thing happened to me, I think. One of my referrals on here joined through my referral link I had as my signature on IMDb. He posted a few times and then wrote me asking how to make money on here or something like that. After he found out Mylot wasn't going to make him a lot of money and he would take more effort than he wanted to give, he never logged in again. Swagbucks rewards you for doing different things on the site, like searching the internet. That's my primary source of SBs, that and the points you get for doing the daily poll, using the toolbar, and visiting the surveys. You trade in your SBs for rewards. I've been getting the Amazon gift cards but I decided recently to just start going for the $5 itself to be deposited in my PayPal account. If you're not a member, then please write me first before joining, wink wink. lol. (But seriously lol)

i have got nearly all my referrals from getref where i set some condition like you have to post on at least 5 discussion so that i would accept your credits i don't why why many people have joined me from there but only one of them has posted till 15 and then gone inactive i always tell them at least try the site out but don't reply to any one my pm not here and not in getref also then i just say them why have you joined if you don't even want to try haven't you read the description that i gave and i ignore them

oh ho. what is getref all about? i think mylot is a place where you can earn only when you like and enjoy the site, or else it becomes a chore of starting or replying to discussions right!?

Normally I get them from my blog. Possibly some from the banners in my profile. I have to admit though that even though I have got quite a few. Only a few were active. I only have one active referral now. Not complaining. One is better than none. Although I understand what you are saying. It would help me a great deal rather than just earning money myself alone. It would free up more of my time. I really don't have the time to earn money online anymore like I used to. I would suggest putting referral links anywhere that you are allowed. Putting banners in your mylot profile. Possibly creating a blog. If you create a blog, remember you have to get traffic for anyone to see your blog. A couple of good things to do with your blog is to get blog exchanges, traffic websites, and linkreferral. The best things that worked for me to get traffic to my blog was linkreferral and blog exchanges. I wish you luck!

Hello, DarthJustice. I think I only have one referral here but he is not active ,got only one post. And it seems that he can not get motivated to post more. The thing here is that , online earning is not a familiar thing for my friends. Besides, they are busy with socializing in FB after working long hours within a day. I can not blame them. I promote sites in one of the traffic exchange I am a member of. Plus in my FB account. But, still it is not getting anywhere.... Sigh... it is difficult to convince people to work online unless they see real money and that is real big cash!

Most of my referrals I have on here only posted a few times. One only posted 26 times and gave up the site. I think that's a problem for a lot of referrals--they simply just lose interest, unfortunately.

I wish I could get that much on here and Swagbucks (more SB). I'm going to do my best to do that though. I've never heard of Beruby so you might be right.

I have the same question exactly like you. I now have two referrals here mylot, but they even haven't put one comment here! I don't why. And I don't know how to get referrals...
