Hello fellow MyLot members! I became a MyLot member 5 years ago with 1,190 profile views all-time. I had created 32 discussions, posted 11 answers, added and/or accepted 44 friends and made 299 likes. I left my account dormant for a few years and my total earnings is only $0.16. What about you, how long have you been a MyLot member and how much have you earned? I've always wondered how much are the average discussions and answers to reach $10-$100, or even bigger than that? I don't find the website good enough but most members are still active so I'm going to continue this. I don't know when I'll be receiving my first pay-out but I'm sure my efforts are worth it. Is there any rate in relation to how many comments you're getting with your own discussions? This may sound rude but I'm not removing this discussion. At least I'll always be reminded of what I'm not supposed to do. Photo grabbed from dreamstime.com.

I've been a Mylot member for 6 months,and so far I started eleven discussions and made 800 posts;I was paid twice until now,so I received about 28 dollars from Mylot,and my earnings grew faster after I started using the search engine regularly.I am quite satisfied with my earnings and I hope to earn more this summer.

I just joined yesterday and I already have .16 in my account. But as the others said, its the quality of your conversation and how you contribute to the site that gets you paid. And in the rules it said you must log in every 3 months or your earnings are forfeited. So you may have lost what you earned initially.

I'm making comments here now just in case you guys are still here. My account has a few cents when I logged back in so I guess the rules really did change.

There is no fixed rate for anything here (except the tasks) and what one user earns is not the same as another user. There are many factors involved including the time that we spend here, the value if our star, what we do (tasks, searching or participating in the discussions) and whether we have referrals. I have been here over 4 years and I reach payout every month if I am here. I do so just with my own particpation in the disussions. I also use the search and have some referrals who are occasionally active. Add those earnings to my participation earnings and I am happy with the results. If you want to earn here then you must be active. YOU will ONLY earn for what YOU do here. You do not earn anything when others post responses on your topics, they do. You earn by commenting back to them and furthering the topic and making your topic become a discussion.

If you understand that then I am surprised that you are not yet commenting on the other responses and that you only posted one line in your comment here. We only earn for quality remember

Oh well, I was looking at a bigger picture back then. I'm starting from scratch again and seeing how myLot has grown, this will do just great.

Hi, I'm a member less than a week ago and I've earned $0.07 until now. I think if you want to earn more you should post a large number of responses and maybe discussions too. Perhaps it will be good if you research MyLot site and choose "earnings" or "MyLot" in order that you can learn how to earn money. But besides all this, I'm enjoying to participate in discussions and hope you enjoy it as well. :)

I agree, it's really great that comments like these are left where they are. It still serves a purpose, a gentle reminder on how we should be doing things around here.

Rick, I think it is not just posting a large number of discussions and posting a large number of comments but actually discussing, creating dialogue with individuals on the site that will help you to build. Many just post or comment. This site is more about interaction and carrying on quality conversations.

Hi Beaufly and Scarface. Thanks for your comments, because I'm going to understand better the real sense MyLot should have. It's very helpful to get the views from other members which help to improve your contribution to this page. Thanks again.

I've had a myLot account for about 5-6 days now, and I've earned $1.19 in that time. Most of it is from discussions, but I have done a few of the quicker tasks that have earned for me. I always try to make sure my discussions are good quality in order to attract more views and earn more. Anyway, I've also added photos to my discussions and to a few of my interests as a way to earn more. The more quality discussions you have and the more you get involved in the community, the more you get paid. MyLot is working out fairly well for me so far as earnings, although I probably won't reach the minimum payment for this month unless I up my game and start posting more quality discussions. Quantity counts some, but quality and thought count more. As far as the rate for comments on my own discussions, I've only posted 2 discussions of my own, but I've commented on over 60 and posted 4 photos in my interests and discussions. I discovered that myLot doesn't pay you when other people comment on your discussion, so I tend to comment more on other people's posts. Don't get me wrong though, myLot will delete any discussions that aren't of good quality and you will lose your earnings on that discussion, so it's more prudent to make sure you have good responses and thoughtful, unique topics for your own discussions. Happy Earnings!

Such a big mistake to underestimate this site. I now realized it's better to spend more time here. You write whatever's on your mind without the hassle of word counts and grammar checks, and I feel totally at home too. Good luck to us all.

four years and we have no fixed rates as we a re paid for quaity not how many posts you just put down one sentence or two or three words as thy do not pay for that at all. I have made pay out every month I have been her for almost four years but look its rude to ask how much we are paid as di Diana told you they do not give us a fixed rate.we all are paid . differently.read all the mylot information as it will give you the keys to making good earning on mylot. knowing the rules then you will not break them and will not have your discussions deleted. No there is no rate as you should have learned by now. I think that is because if they had a rate for each different thing soon people would be gaming the system and breaking more rules than they b reak now.

I have been a member and this will be my 13th month though I have only been active for 9. I make payout way over the minimum each and every month, but it is because I am very active. My suggestion to any member is simply not to worry about participation points and or earning and enjoy the site. Doing it this way it then becomes an increase in earnings as you do not realize how much activity you can do as you will be concentrating more on quality. Best of luck to you and hope you too can make payouts monthly and or continue to enjoy the site.

I have a been a member here for awhile but I come here in spurts and I believe I even lost earnings because I had not been here in a long time. This is a discussion-based site so you get paid for furthering discussions, what I see here mostly are people posting a lot of different posts or starting a lot of different discussions without coming back to them or trying to develop a conversation or a discussion......That's the rub, earnings will be low in this way. Engagement means participation and it also means time. That is what I am the most curious about is how much time people spend here. Your comments and discussions also have to be of quality, meaning more than one line or a word here or there. I am over the $5 point but I don't expect much from here because I usually do not have the time. I am enjoying the last 2 days at MyLot as I take a break from my steadier and more lucrative online work.

Come back and continue your topics, have fun and engage in topics that interest you and I think you will see greater results, possibly even amazing ones. The more we can engage and discuss meaningfully, the more we will all make. I am checking my posts and I get a little disappointed when I see the original poster has not even come back to add any feedback for anyone so that is someone who probably does not understand what the site is all about, creating discussions and engaging in dialogue, like a conversation.

I consider your opinion is right -you need to have time to write comments here. But not only time -you have to write good too. At the moment I have time, but I don't know the future. The main thing is that you like to write and enjoy meeting people from around the world in order to know their opinions and contributions to this community. Continues to enjoy MyLot!

I have been here for more than three years. I used to have another account and cancelled it and came back with another name. I am not so sure how much I have earned so far and to be honest I don't really care. I come here to have fun. You can't write for a living here and most of the time 20 dollars or 10 dollars I get per month won't buy me much in this world not even enough gas.

Thank you for reminding me that it's all about the fun in here. In my case though, I came back with the same account and just changed the name. Username can't be changed but I like to keep it as is.

My account's been alive for about six months or so, but I haven't been using it for that long. I actually took a hiatus from myLot for about five months to really focus on my schoolwork and my social life. myLot was taking away from these things for a while. But now I'm back because I could use a little extra cash on the side to buy some luxuries such as clothes, shoes, and other things that I might want on the side. Right now I've answered 103 discussions and started 43 discussions. I've been using this site really often for the last three days. I've been commenting on so many discussions, starting many, giving long and thought-out responses, and doing some tasks along the way. And I think I made a pretty good amount. I did have some mistakes though. I actually started really popular discussions, but I would never respond to them, which was my mistake. If I'd have responded to them, I could have earned more money. But that's fine. We all make mistakes, and now I've learned my lesson.

Hi piyoz000, I joined this site just a month ago but it seems to be great site though i have not reached the payout not yet but i am just few cents away from it. My suggestion to you is to be more & more active more you are active here more you will earn. try to do all activities like using search engine,photo uploading,referrals,posting good quality posts. Don't think more of earnings here else you will stress your mind & will leave it in disgust try to have fun & then earning will come automatically though it won't give you huge money but yes will surely give you a satisfaction that you earned something along with fun. You won't find such a good site to have discussions from such a nice people from all over the world.

This is another great advice even after all these years. Now that I'm back, I'll just focus on writing my heart out and make new friends. Friends that we won't ever see, or actually talk to in person but share the same interests. Thank you so much.

I am new here in My-lot almost 1 week and I already earned .70 dollar.My payment is mostly for discussions and I join discussions which I am just interested.Their payment is good for me because all you have to do is participate in discussions that you are enjoying while earning.I also earned from my referrals and by completing a lot of task and I would say that its enjoyable and rewarding here when you earn by just participating.If you really want to earn more you should participate even more in others discussions.I'm surprised that you only earn .16 for 5 years here in my lot.

Hi there, I'm not sure who you are referring to with regards to that small amount of earnings. But in my case, I found some better opportunities that time, and I took myLot for granted. Big mistake on my part because it's only now that I realized it's more fun here than elsewhere. P.S Sorry about that, I jumped into the comments section and didn't read back on this discussion first.

Hi there, welcome to mylot. I have been on mylot i guess since 3 to 4 years. Amount you get is not fixed per month its upon how many discussions you do. I have earned not much here because i am not regular to mylot in recent times. Whenever i was regular i have earned really good and i can say mylot is the only site that i found genuine and upto their words. And i will never leave this site you can earn really well out here.
