How many comments in a discussion does MyLot pay you for?

January 15, 2007 9:43pm CST
Hello all. I'm a newbie with a question: If I post a discussion, and say, 20 people post individual comments, and I respond to each of their comments, do I get the point for starting the discussion and one point for each reply to each unique comment posted? I mean, is that how the veterans are getting paid here, or is it because of sheer volume of discussions started and commented on? Please don't answer this saying "I don't know". Only people who have been paid by MyLot before and who really know what they are talking about need reply. Thank you, I.C. Jackson

Computation for earnings on mylot for discussions started with responses have not been disclosed by mylot and Ihope they will soon be transparent about this. What I can say is you earn a credit(your number) for the first response but commenting on each and every response will not earn you any more credit. But when you do comment that is actually having a discussion of some sort. I guess you earn more if you have tons of responders in addition to your postings to other discussions. As for me, I earn more from posting to discussions as I don't get that much response when I start a thread LOL. Just post to discussions more often and also start a quality thread and hope that it would get much attention from other users. Some quality discussions don't get that much attention too. Even veteran mylot users have no or few responders also. Happy posting!

Well I am farily new myself and I realize you did not care for my response however this is my input and i hope it is helpful. I asked this same question last week and what I got back and from my postings understand that no you only get paid for your responses to other plp's discussions. Strange I know but this is what I am seeing. Good luck..

It's no problem... At least your comment added some real value to the thread, which was what I was trying to ensure. Someone else has already done exactly what I was trying to avoid... but you're good. I.C. Jackson

as far as i know you do get paid as long as someone answers your discussion but im open to contradiction I certainly get most of mine from answering others and have been paid twice now

I think they pay for all comments/responses providing they are of a good quality.

Mylot is not disclosing how exactly they credit members and why some people are getting more $ per post/discussion than others, apparently they don't want to make it easy for scammers to fake what looks like good responses, so you just need to reply to other people's discussions with good responses really related to their topics, it better be more than two or three lines and you can also add a photo if you have a relevant one to the topic. As for starting your own discussions, you get paid for any discussion that has at least one response and you only get paid for it once no matter how many people posted at it or how many comments you made to their posts. what makes a difference is i think when you respond and comment on your own discussions you get paid higher rates for your next discussions as you are seen by mylot as an active and serious member.

You get paid more for having more responses to your discussion as this has created more conversation on the mylot website. You dont however get money for a response to someones response to your discussion. Most people acutally get annoyed when you post "Thanks for your response" on all ur responses. Hope this information is useful

You get one point for each discussion you open that get one or more responses and one for each response you make to a discussion. You lose a point if the discussion you responded to get deleted (for what ever reason). The number in parenthesis by your name reflects the total of points you have earned.

It would help if Mylot gave an actuale earnings statement that showed how much each respond or post was worth.

but if I'm correct in this, don't the replies have to be more than a sentence? they should be 3 to 4 sentences that contribute positively to the discussion as well as make sense. I'm still new, but I try to post more than one sentence that pertains to each discussion, as well as some of my own photographs.

Well I think only Mylot knows the exact calculation and your earnings. You get paid higher amounts if you start and post to quality discussions. Dont even think of answering hundreds of dicussions with a single sentence in a day because even though your ratings will go up, mylot knows how to detect members who really respond and comment on quality discussions. You can also earn additional amount thru posting/uploading pictures expecially to your my interests. P.s: Post pictures which you have legal rights to. Or should we say, you took the picture yourself. Lets just keep on posting here. Best of luck to all of us!

I think the most help would have to be reading or at least glancing over the guidelines. I have noticed there are plenty of people whom pasted the website of the guidelines under their discussion. That's what helped me understand myLot a lot better than before.

From what I have experienced, for each message you post up here, you get $.3 cents each. It may not sound like a lot at all, but at least you got nothing to lose.
