Do You Keep Track of Your Mylot Earnings?

Do you keep track of how much you earn at mylot each day? Do you keep track of how much you post and reply and compare that to your earnings? I have seen alot of discussions here on Mylot about the earnings, people complaining that they did not make neough for what they did, or that the amount in thier accounts had gone down, and also positive ones with people talking about how they have reached payout. I check each day to see how I did the day before, but I do not keep track of how many posts I made or try to figure out what I should get paid before I do, because it said in the Mylot Earnings information section not to bother trying to figure out thier pay scheme or whatever. I am getting close to payout soon, so I will be proud of myself once I reach that. So do you keep track? Do you earn about hte same amount each day, or do you try to? What is the best you have ever done for one day?

I don't really keep track of that sort of thing much. There are days when I come on and make just one or two posts because I don't really have time or don't feel like doing it, and other days when I'll be on and off all day. I did once try counting my posts to see how many I made, because so many people had mentioned making 50 or 100 a day or whatever, but frankly it bores me! I'd rather just talk and have fun and not worry about the earnings until they happen.
I do always check my earnings when I come on to see what I made before, just out of curiousity. However, the amounts actually seem kind of random to me sometimes, and I've never gotten seriously upset or excited over them. I have made more than $3 in one day a couple of times, but most often it's more like less than a dollar these days. I don't really worry about it, because I've never not made payout since I joined.

I like to keep track just to see if I am going to make it to payout. I will this month, so once I have made it I will probably be less worried about what I have until next month. I know this is not a place to get rich but at at least $10 a month it's and alright way to put away a little savings for gift buying.

*nods* A lot of people here seem to worry about the money aspect a lot, as if it were going to get them a HUGE amount somehow, and I just don't see it being all that likely. In my case, so far my mylot money has been used to give to charity, something I can't afford to do as much as I'd like of otherwise. However, this month things are a little tight for me myself, so it's likely going to have to pay a bill.

I certain keep track of my earnings.I am fast approaching my payout specified amount . The earnings differ from day to another day as the quantum of my postings and responses differ.

I know for a fact that My Lot is paying less for the same posts than before. Yesterday I earned $1.67 for 45 discussions and 50 replies. However two weeks ago, I made $2.37 for 35 discussions and no replies! How silly is that? They are paying much less and consequently I am don't hang out at My Lot anymore.

It is unfortunate to hear that you don't coem on mylot very much anymore. I haven't really noticed the drop in earnings myself but I have only been here for a little over a month and won't make payout until the end of this month. I actually had my best day on mylot yet the other day, I made 79 cents, I guess that's not alot but it's still good compared to the other programs I was mmbers of in the past. I would be so happy if I could make like $2 a day here. You must have been really committed to the site then. I only really get on mylot when my husband is at work.

The first time I'm here in mylot I directly go check my earning even it's still my first day. I'm always checking it evrytime I login. Though it's a small amount, I enjoyed reading and commenting someones topics. I use this as a way to intertain myself.

Yes, i do keep track of payments in mylot only on those days where i would have posted lots of discussions and will try to calculate on how much they trying to pay for each post i post or respond.
Otherwise I will normally not check on how much I earn except looking at mylot earnings: part daily that's all and i don't research on it if i had posted very less on particular days.

Well, actually I have been so long not to set up my foot here. Anyway, I should say hi to you. Actually in mylot I've always making my own note book for the sum of my postings. In the next day, I'll check out my daily earning in order to make some observations on the payment. My daily earning won't be in the same stage for each day since I'm too busy to be around.
I did post about 100 postings per day and I got about $1++. I think that's nice although the rate is too low but at least mylot will avoid from some people that love to scam.

I don't keep track of it. If I did it would only make me angry.
When my star rating was higher I would get 3 cents to make a response to a discussion.
Now that it is lower sometimes I don't even get a cent.
I know this because I usually make one post a day because I do not get anything from my referrals if I do not make a post that day. Don't worry what I get from referrals is usually nothing but I don't get it if I don't post that day.
What I don't understand is... if my response was worth 3 cents when my star was 9 then why do they pay me less now that my star is an 8.

Yes, I keep track but just for the fun of it. I do not take it this serious. Once I made almost a dollar and once above one dollar a day. Some days I earn just a couple of pennies, I think I average around thirty cents. Happy mylotting.

when i first logged into mylot, the first thing i do is check my earning, how much money that i got yesterday, but it quite seem small for me, only few cents per day, and also i even didn't get it for one day, because i have some job to do and can't online here.

I was hopeing to make the payout of $10 each month when I first started on mylot but I have not been able to do that yet. I am a housewife and do not have income other than what I make online right now. I want to try to make enough between mylot and other things that I do online so that i can have my own money to buy my husband gifts with at Christmas time.

I don't keep track of how many times I post or how much I make per day. Mylot has become sort of an outlet for me. I enjoy reading peoples dicussions and posting on the ones I like. Good luck in reaching your payout. Have fun and enjoy.

I've only been on MyLot for four days, but I've been keeping track on how much I earn and approximatly how many posts I've made. So far I'm earning somewhere between 20 and 30 cents per day, and I post atleast as many posts.

Yeah I don't really understand hte pay structure but i know that what you make has something to do with the quality of your discussions and how many responses you get and stuff. And the quality of your replys. There have been days tat I have thought I would do better than I did and there have been days that I have done much better than I expected to.

I always keep a track of my earning. I check how much I earned on particular day from how many posts. I also calculate my average earning per days and time spent on mylot. This helps me to know how much I can earn here per day and how I can increase my earning.
But, mylot's pays very mysteriously. Their algorithm is very mysterious. But, I think my analysis would surely help me to know my earning speed and ability here.

Yeah, for some reason that is the first thing I look at whenever I login each day. It's a habit now although my earnings are around 5c each day. The first day was a lot with around 20c, since then, earnings per day seems to have really dropped recently.
