Does anyone ever make more than $50 per month on myLot?

I like to write, but I like to see a little return for my efforts. How many new discussions do you have to start to get to $2 a day? Is anyone able to sustain that without writing for 5 hours per day? It only takes me about 2 or 3 minutes most of the time to get an article on here. But, that's quite a while for a nickel payback. However, if I'm just killing time, it's better than the nothing I would have made. So, is anyone here able to keep up the income by doing the same amount of work each day? Or, does it seem too hard to figure out?

I don´t make that much, but so far I´m earning about 80-90 cents a day, which I think is pretty good. It took me several weeks to get to that, but now I just keep the myLot window open while I work and when I think of a question, I post it and every once in a while, I browse and answer other posts. I don´t really figure out how many I have to do per day, I just do it as they come to me.

Well, the highest earning for a day that I ever had was $1.89. I have never reached $2 yet (and I'm not sure if I could reach that amount). The $1.89 was for 30 responses to discussions and 2 new discussions that I've posted. One of the latter garnered around 30 responses for that day (but I think the computation for the number of responses would be for later). I have no referrals and my friends are not guaranteed respondents to my discussions. I actually just work on my own. Well, that's about it. Perhaps if you could post 50-100 quality discussions, you would be able to get $2. That would be a whole day's work if you're quick enough in responding. There's no harm in trying. Happy myLotting!

I do currently make over fifty a month and that is without referrals. Almost 99 percent of my responses are 3 or more lines. I answer at least fifty discussions a day like today and started three new ones. I do not start new discussions daily. I have 3 referrals and only 1 is active and still am over fifty a month. It is quite doable if you work at it every day. Like I said I shoot for fifty responses. Sometimes I do more. When the Notify On works I answer from my email my friends discussions. That works really well for me Good luck with this, you too can do this.

My question is this: Do you just post your answer to the discussion and never read and rate the other answers? Or do you read an entire group of 50 discussions on MyLot? It takes time to read and rate, which is what I always do, but perhaps it is better to simply reply and never read what others have to say? Just curious.

Aproximately how long does it take you each day to reply to fifty discussions? I find that there are some even of my friends that are just not applicable for me to respond to. I also have a special needs son and work part-time outside the house so my time is very limited. Do you think that I would be able to accomplish this? The most I have made in one day is eighteen cents and there are somedays that I don't get on here at all. My average daily amount is around five or six cents. I am still finding my way around MyLot. I hope you can help me.

GuateMom has the right approach going. I think the only way you would make $50.00 per month would be after you really got fast and had several referrals posting too. If you are looking for online income then mylot is good as part of a larger set of income streams. I write a few articles for AC and I also to tarot readings online so myLot is not the only online activity I have going. With time I bet you will get a nice set of money making activities and things will balance out for you. Don't give up!

It seems to me that this would be very difficult, but possible. You would have to be very dedicated to posting and responding. I am fairly new here, but I do not think I would have the time to commit to making that much ! I am curious as to what others respond.

I never made 50 bucks a month over on mylot but also thats because i dont spend much time on here...but i did earned 10 bucks already over here !! :)

My best personal earnings for the day was 2.37. I still believe that it is possible to reach 50 dollars with some active referrals. Maybe 10 good referrals earning you about 10 cents a day is good enough. The rest of it we make up with our personal effort.

Alot of people here make good money here a month.You have to figure out a system that works for you within the time frame you allow yourself a day.Many people post a certain number of discussions a day and than respond to a set number of discussions.I would suggest asking the top users here for that kind of advice,maybe ask them to be your friend & pick their brains for advice.Good luck. :)

I can't get on much on mylot and even internet. So I'm able to make only a few cents. But it doesn't matter to me. Why??? Cuz my lot is quite nice. It's forum is unique and it helps me to interact and learn in a new way. Maybe I get to find something else and which is better than mylot. Mylot is quite good from my previous experience from invision free forums. SO it's quite quite better and newer.

You can learn a lot of helpful things here on MyLot. I am interested in writing, and I have gotten a lot of helpful information by reading those discussions and posting questions that I am really interested in. For example, there are quite a few Associated Content writers on here, and we give each other suggestions, read each others' posts over there. So there are many things to learn and be gained, not just the cash from MyLot alone.

I've just started with myLot, and I don't know yet what 'tricks' work best, but I aim to find out. When I do, I'll be sure to let y'all know! Meanwhile, I've earned 34 cents! Not sure my PayPal account can take it! If anyone has some real helps, I'd like to hear some. I also write at Helium.com, but can't say that's much better...probably not as good, so far. Oh, well! I enjoy doing it, so that's part of my payment, I guess! Good luck!

Hello! i am new on my lot can you tell me more tips to how i make more money my lot on few day's.

The most I have made is $1.12 in one day, although I could probably make more money if I spent more time on here and posted more pictures with my discussions and responses, even with $50 a month from myLot in the big picture that is not even money to even matter. I get on myLot mostly for the discussions and the friends I have made on here with whom I enjoy reading and replying to their discussions.

Hmm I have no idea ive not done a lot on here at all. Plus I live in the UK and have not looked into that side of things. I was with gather but they as it turns out do not send the gift vouchers to the uk, what a waste of 4000 points huh. Good luck with it

i think the most i ever made in one day on here was about $.75. and that was with a refereal, a few pics, and a few posts that i posted and lots of discussions to that i responded to. you just have to work real hard i guess and have lots of time to spend on it. i have been here for over a month and a half and i have yet to reach $10! i am close though, just $1.27 away, and im sure i will have that in about 2 days. i have a 5 month old son, so i dont have alot of time on here.

In my opinion the best way is to surf and look for interests and have them noted and write your comments separately in a worddoc and paste them while your are on the net. This will definitely save you some time.

Well I have been on here for about 5 days now. Not regularly I hasten to add and I've made about $0.40. I've done about 30 responses all together which is not bad at all?? I agree with you though. I wouldnt have made anything not doing it so i'm $0.40 richer than I was before...lol I don't think it'll make me a millionaire but it will help.
