well on both accounts, uploading image while your starting a discussion will get you some credit and also upload some images under your ineterest section,whenever you'll enter your interest section you'll see some pictures on the top of discussion and on the right you can see the option of upload an image just upload some and dont forget to give good details about that picture as it really worths it.

what? you have earning $3.31 just for 143 post? that is amazing, not harrible, right now i'm just earning about $2.05 and my post is nearly with you. Rignow i want to ask you haow you so that? are you uploding a lot of picture? do you have more refferals? I dont have any refferal with me, i don't know how to invite my other friend to join mylot because what i see is they are not intrested in forum or making money online. So tell me, i wanna to know, but if your income is cotribute by refferal that i can't do, if you have other tactic so tell me. if you ask other senior to help is good but you must tell me first..

Well I have been uploading pics just today . The only other times I uploaded pictures was when I started discussions. I always make sure that responses to other discussions are worth the time it took to write them. I want them to be to the point of the topic and be as clear as I can on what I am saying. Always make your post worth reading. This is what I have been told and this is what I am doing. I only have 2 referrals and only have made .01 so it's not from my referrals that I am earning money.

I have been a member here since Aug of last year and have earned as much as 80 dollars in one time here. The key to earning more without answerings hundred of these a day is when your answering discussions make sure your input is useful and long. I find if I fill this box here provided for your respone your bound to get anywhere from 2-3cents a post. I will come on and do 50 of these a day and takes me maybe 2 hours but I earn about a buck maybe 1.50. I hit payout every month although its never very big anymore. So anyways keep them post long and useful and your earnnings should raise.

Thank you so much. I will work on making longer post. It's hard sometimes as some questions don't require a long reply. I wish I could make $ 1.50 in one day just for typing here. There are some really useless post around here that I have seen and they post 1 liners. It drives me up the wall because it's hard to reply to someone like that and have a bunch to say. Do you know what I mean? I appreciate your tips and advice. We need more people like you to help the newbies :-)

Its like going to be two and half month of me being here in mylot. yes in the starting it was kind of frustrating but slowly it improves and i should say quality matters a lot in the posts. What every you do here do it meaningful than you surely will get good earnings. Anyway i should say yours is pretty fine. As i saw others with your same number of posts but with less earnings comparing with your. Till now i have earned $18.26 heheh and i am waiting for the payout. Anyway good luck mylotting

Congrats on your earnings. Thanks for sharing. I really try to post meaningful things and not just one liners. I always try to be the best I can and answer the ones I know I am going to be able to say a bunch of stuff about. There are many post out there that I don't fit in the question so I don't even comment. I really think I need to be posting more. I just see a lot of newbies trying to up their count with garbage and I don't want to be that person! Know what I mean?

That sounds about right to me, I have been here 4 weeks and I have $3.93 but I don't spend a whole lot of time on here, maybe 15 responses a day.

I've been on mylot for about a week now and have made a little over a dollar. It may not be much, but it's a start. I hope to get up to over 10 sometime soon by starting to post more. I don't have any active refferals so I'm getting all my profit off my posts and discussions that I start. I think I'm doing pretty well.

Thanks for sharing and welcome to Mylot. I am only 2 weeks older than you on here. Pretty soon you will be racking up the $$$ :) Good luck on Mylot.

Hi, I've been here since the end of January so it's about 2 and a half months. I have 20 dollars in all, which is not really that much. It's not in the length of time but in the participation here, the posts you make (quantity and quality) and the discussions you started, also the pictures you posted. Not to mention any activity by your referrals. With the number of posts that you have right now, I'd say you're doing pretty well. You'd have to be more active to earn more, though.

Thanks so much. Yes, I know I need to be more active but it's tough when I got a million and one things happening with me arond the house. LOL I am slowly getting into it. I know for about the first week, I didn't post much. Now for the last 2 weeks, I try to post everyday!

2 weeks and my earning is 3.76 cents so far:( i know its more then yours but after putting lots of efforts it isnt much... but as i have learnt the trick now so i think earnings and responses is increasing! trick is give lengthy responses and start long discussions! and see your earning increasing fast... and avoid giving responses to one liners as its just waste of time!!! this is what i have learnt.

hi! i don't mind sharing. i'm as transparent as i can be. and it's why we are here at mylot for... to share. :) i'm almost 5 weeks in mylot. i don't log on to mylot often and i don't post often either. right now i have 380 posts. i earned $16.36 for my 369 posts in the last update. your earnings are ok, it isn't as low as you think. my earnings when i reached 100 posts is just around your figure also. some people earn less too. so you are doing better than most people. :) we earn from active participation here in mylot. so continue to participate and enjoy. do quality posts so you'll earn more for every post. avoid one-liners, they don't earn you anything. :) goodluck! :)

Thankis so much. I am back to 10 star so I must be doing something right :) WOOHOO. I never do one liners unless I am responding to someone that responded to me. I heard those don't count anyways. I don't do them often, but every now and then, there isn't much to say to the person who responded to me. Thanks!

Keep posting and post quality and you will get there. I try to post to at least 10-15 new discussions a day. I think that is about what I did yesterday. IT will help.

Today I'm in mylot for exactly one month, I joined March the 14th.. I already received my first payout today as I made the minimum before the end of last month, it's not really hard if you have the time and can post more responses, as i type this I can see you have 165 points and $3.31 is not bad for that number of responses, as I started I was doing much worth than that.. You just need to post more responses to make more money, it's that's simple. Good luck and welcome to mylot :)

I am here for around 2 weeks and my earnings now is around $6.5. I got one referral who actively posts since yesterday and I earn around $0.15 from him totally so far. The remaining earnings are from my own work. I don't post any pictures and I just reply to people with details. I don't start discussions very often, I do start once or twice a day. I hope it helps.

That is so awesome to have that much money and not be posting pictures / starting discussions. That means you are kicking butt with your replies and making them the best you can. I see you also have 283 post. That is way more than me and I have been on for a whole week longer than you. I guess I need to start making this happen more huh? Thanks for sharing your results!

Patience is a virtue hun, you have done well up to now and in time you will see your earnings increase. Just keep posting good quality discussions and responding with intelligent and sensible comments and you will earn more.

I have been here three months and my earnings right now are $40.45. I have checked the amount at twenty five dollars that I want to be paid at. The one thing I have set up as a minumum of 25 discussions I respond to a day. It is not a chore for me because I love coming to this site and going through the discussions that are posted here. I start out by reading the titles to see if I am interested in the discussion. I read a few lines and if I am interested than I read the whole discussion and respond to it. Don't get discouraged. For one thing I am not here just for the money. I like to read and respond to discussions. It is coming up to the time I will be paid and this will be the first time I will get money from here. It takes awhile to get some money built up here but if you make a commitment to do a certain amount of responding to discussions that should help.

Hang in there!! I joined in February and it took me about 6 weeks to make $10- (but i have two part time jobs too) so i think it depends on how much time you have to devote to mylot and how creative you are. i am pretty lucky cause i am a freelance writer, so i usually can come up with ideas pretty quickly if there aren't any intelligent discussions on here to write to good luck!!

Well I'm a member only for two days and so far I've made 7 cents, although my earning haven't been updated yet so those 7 cents are only from my first day in here. Today I've uploaded some pictures and made much more posts than yesterday so I assume my earnings are about 20 cent.

You will. Trust me, it gets better. I already cashed out once and $1.49 from cashing out again. So it will add up. Just keep poking along.
