Do you earn faster with more posts?

April 23, 2007 9:53pm CST
I don't have many myself, but I was wondering, for those of you who have been paid by MyLot already: have you noticed if you're earning money faster with each post, because you have so many posts? What are the things that have helped you earn the fastest? I've heard I should make long posts, make posts that will get a lot of responses, always indicate best response, and watch my grammar and spelling to make sure my pay rate is decent quality. Anything else? Do those work for you?

erm.. i seldom create discussion.. maybe two discussion daily.. i think it's more like spamming if you don't reply to your discussion. .what's the point? it's like you started conversation with your friends.. and when your friends started talking about it.. you open another topic discussion.. wouldn't that clash with your previous one? i think if you want to create a discussion.. do participate in your discussion first.. don't let people to post for nothing.. then mylot will be much better place for us to discuss.. now that i see people just keep opening discussion but not active in it.. they just think too much of earning money.. and it's already out of control =)

You can always boost up your earnings thru basics which is posting more than a good discussions and replies. You can earn thru referring friends as mylot gives you 25% of your referrals' earnings on top. Another one is uploading pictures and images. For every post, it always good to have it clear and comprehensive to everybody. Don't post only to comply with the quantity you need to hit but the quality of it either.

Oh yes you do earn more faster with more posts, and I have been paid by mylot, the best thing to do is to put out about 4 discussions per day and then concentrate on the amount of posts you can do per day and then you will see your money going up if you can posts 50 responses or more per day then your earnings sure will add up more quickly. You have the rest here in your discussion so hopefully what I have added will help you.

Hello jollyjeangiant, yes you can say that.Logically you can earn faster wiht more posts ,this is because when you post more, your earning value will increase. But the most important thing is you need to maintain high standard quality of your reply message, so that myLot will count more for your pocket money when you selected as "best respond".

Above each response usually is blue letter saying chose as best response. but that is missing here i thought that jolly had chosen but it's not showing up, up there under her topic starter. May be it is just visable to her. If you have started any discusions go back and look at the top of them and you will see it.

Quality post matters a lot .. If your post is considered to be a quality post then u will definitely earn much .. What is a quality post -- Quality post is the post between 6 - 8 lines which contains quality -- by which other members benefit. Quality discussion - A quality discussion is a discussion which motivates other members to come and post on your discussion .. it should have very easy and simple language .. so that more and more members will come and post on it. Whatever u do .. just do it with your best Good luck !!!!

Some post will pay more than others. I have had post that I thought were not very good and had only one and got .05 for it. one time I did 5 and got .46 one day i did 14 and got .13 for it so the only thing to do is keep posting and make each post the best that it can be.

I am not sure about Indicating a best response helps in boosting the payout ... But yes Posting as many as possible helps in doing so ... also if your post gets a lot of response you will have 2 reply them if you wanna get earned with those .... Even adding Images boosts up the pay-roll but now-a-days this feature is only provided to the members rated over 500 ..... i am sure some day or the other we will reach that mark and be able 2 boost more !!

I also agree with the points that you have stated to earn faster and better.Moreover I like to add that the uniqueness of the discussion is a factor where you will get many responses and your creativity to present it before the the mylot readers also influences much.

I havent been paid by mylot yet ,hoping to get my first payment from them in the coming month,i dont think we earn any faster with every next post , its just the same , it rather depends upon the lenght and quality of response that maximises the earnings and yes you are right about this ,write more earn more but there is nothing like every next post increase the rate of post its just same,well getting more responses will certainly enhances the earnings as its something like 1 cent for every response you get, and yes i heard this aswell that good grammar and punctuations given credits aswell plus the tagging and ratings.

i think it is very ture that you analyse the reason for the earning and posts.at first i make a post too short,and my new discussion topic get no response,so my earn is too little.there are people from different country,English isn't their mother language,so there have many grammar and spelling mistake in their posts and topics.

Posting a lot does make a difference. Here at mylot you determine how active you are. The more active you are the more you will earn. Doing responses, comments and discussions that are in depth, generate interest, and give a way for people to respond with something is what you want to do. When doing responses or comments (and yes these do earn you money even if your number doesn't change, how much though who knows) you want to make sure you are adding to the discussion. You want to share your view point or answer questions but to give enough information so others can understand what you are saying. You want to make sure you stay on topic and that your response has several lines to it. When you create a discussion make sure you put it under the correct interest. It really does help to bring more people to it and so they can respond. Make sure you give enough information for otheres to give a long response to. Don't start something like "What is your favorite movie" but more like "Vampire movies, do you watch them and why? What makes you think they are so good?" And then add your point of view into it. That way the responder can have something to go on. Final note on both, make sure you do add in tags. They do help with finding the discussions. It might help with earnings, I don't know for sure. Try to use correct grammar and puncuation. This helps for people reading it and responding. The better they can read it the more likely they are to respond. Hope this helps.

those things that you mentioned are what does it. also, i think reputation (as in the number in the star beside your name) could also have an impact on how much money you make. right now i am at an 8 and its like i make 0.5 cents more for each post than when i had a 2 or 3. but i have tried to post better posts and i dont force myself to post in discussions that i just dont have much to say in. that way, i can concentrate my thoughts to discussions where i could be the more useful. i think, to make money on mylot, you have to realize that you can't get that much money. you cant expect too much money from just posting about stuff. if you think about it, how much do you expect to pay yourself for each post? i think my posts only deserve 1 cent and 2 cents at best. i dont know why anyone would pay me so much for stuff i ramble on about. good luck with making money at mylot http://darkzzt.blogspot.com/

Thanks for posting and starting this discussion. I am a new user here and I have wonder what is the best way to respond and what is the best way to increase you earnings. I have learned a lot from the other posters here that have been here for a while. I think it is nicer to respond with a longer post rather than a one or two word answer. Thanks.

To earn faster i think the most important part is the quality of ur responces, how long are ur responses as well as topic of discussion i have heard from many myloaters that uploading relavant photographs to ur discussion will also add up in ur earnings. i am not very clesr about the resposes u get ? how much does it effect our earnings as i am newer to my lot i am experimenting every day.
