Some more useful tips for making money on My Lot.

Tweet

Yesterday I posted a discussion on useful tips for increasing your earnings on My Lot. And, I'm not surprised that it got a good response. It's a topic lots of people are trying to figure out for themselves. One of the reasons that I have found that my own personal earnings have gone down over time is that I have made some classic mistakes (against My Lot guidelines) and later had the money deducted from my daily earnings. If you break the rules, they don't pay you for it. So, you end up posting for hours for nothing. Best to stick to the safe path, follow the guidelines and play nice. To keep your discussions or replies from getting deleted (and any earnings that you may have received for them) try these tips: Don't respond to SPAM style discussions that request affiliate links. Don't post your affiliate links (those discussions and replies will just get deleted. Or, at least most do eventually.) If you want to share a link, refer others to your My Lot profile page where you have your links posted. That's why you have a profile page, so that you can network with others. Don't get involved in arguments or controversy. If you can't say something nice, then don't say anything at all. Let the My Lot police take care of the trouble-makers. Or, better yet, click the "report" button and do it for them. The offender won't get paid. And, if you bother replying to the offending discussion, and the discussion gets deleted later, you won't get any money for your response. Are you getting the picture yet? If you respond to a discussion that is later deleted, your earnings from posting the reply get deleted too! Try to add something substantial every time you respond to a discussion. One liners rarely make you any friends and certainly won't earn you any money. It says so in the My Lot guidelines. Do more than say, "Wow! I didn't know that." That one liner will get you nowhere. It adds nothing to the discussion. Not that you are guilty of one liners. But, if you are, then it's probably the reason for lower earnings. Another member suggested trying 2 to 3 paragraphs per response. I tried it, but found that I made very little money for the effort. And, it took too much time to type that much. My best advice would be to post more discussions. Again, make sure that you post 2 to 3 paragraphs for each discussion. Whenever I post a detailed and interesting discussion that draws lots of responses on it's first day, my earnings go up. I am not saying that is the secret to the My Lot earnings algorithm. Perhaps it is just a glitch. But, it couldn't hurt to try! Don't post one liner discussions! About two weeks ago, I posted nearly fifty one liner discussions and practically got nothing for the effort. And, I can't blame My Lot for not wanting to pay me money for such a lousy effort. I'll admit it, I could have done better. Since then, I am always sure to flesh out the discussion with as many extra details and opinions as I can think of. When you post discussions of your own, be sure to include your own personal experience on the subject and/or personal anecdotes. And, be as wordy as possible! Just a couple tips I picked up along the way. Hope they help you earn more money!
