My Lot

Hi there! I'm new to My Lot and I was wondering whether it pays out more when you start a new discussion than if you simply post a reply/response to an existing discussion. Well, I guess I'll get to find out when I next check my earnings!!! Unless, of course, somebody wants to post me the answer on here and earn themselves some small change whilst doing so!!

MyLot does not reveal exactly how earnings are calculated. It uses a complex algorithm which takes many things into account to reward the quality of participation. As such, it is nothing as simple as 'per discussion' or 'per post'. For more information, read the FAQs on Earnings here: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq6.aspx#14 One mistake that many new users make is to think that the more responses one gets to a discussion, the more one earns. In fact, you will earn NOTHING more from that discussion unless you are able to discuss the topic by replying to the responses you get. It is rather sad when one sees so many discussions where the person who started it doesn't bother to come back to the page at all. They clearly have no concept of what the word 'discussion' means! I hope that gives you enough information to answer your own question!
