Is myLot really worth doing? It seems like it would take a lot of work and devotion just to make the minimum payment. About how long does it take you guys to get to $10? Are there any other ways to make money other than posting? I know some people aren't here just to make money, but also to have a community of people to chat with.

First off...? ? ? Welcome to Mylot! ? ? ? If you are here to participate in discussions, then yeah it's well worth it in my opinion. I learn something new everyday here as well as meet some wonderful people from all over the world. The best I can say to make the most of you time is, don't post spam, one sentence questions and/or try to cheat. Try to post unique ideas or ask questions that have not been asked. Give replies with a lot of detail and have a blast. Also keep in mind every thing you do will be rated by the rest of us and that rating is one factor Mylot uses when judging what to pay you. So if you do want to make as much as you can here, keep that in mind. Now to answer your question how long does it take me to reach $10.00, about 2.5 weeks. I don't post to discussions that breaks the rules for one, so I have a few posts deleted and that helps. I also don't reply with a couple of sentences either. I also want to suggest you scroll down to the bottom of the page and in blue find "FAQ’s", "Terms" and "Guidelines", then read them. They honestly have hints on how to earn as much as you can here as well as how not to have your posts deleted, which if happens you make nothing from.

I havent been here for long but i think it is worth it for the advice given and gotten and the people I have met, and getting paid no matter how much is a bonus.so to me it is.

It is worth if you just forget about the money and try to know new people and change ideas. Eventually you will get some money. You will never get rich though.

I am new here.I am here to communicate with people.I do not consider Mylot as the tool to make money.Everyone will have his own troubles, through Mylot, you will spread your troubles to others to get help, which is the most important.And making money from Mylot is a kind of tool to attract people to communicate.

while I haven't exactly made a "living" on MyLot, I have earned pretty good money. I like being able to spend a little bit of money on the things I want, and MyLot is the perfect way for me to earn the money. MyLot is definitely worthit.

i think yes you are right it takes long time to get paid but what i feel is just try to chat more here and devote 2 hrs insted of 1 hr you will defenetly get paid and never post any reffral link. Because reffral link posting leads to deletion of a/c and reduction in earning! So better be care ful and post steady!! and care fully!!

If you do continue to post a lot and post good subject matter than the money will come. But you're right, you have to be willing to make the effort to get it. Mylot isn't really all about the money, most people come here for the discussions and topics. So far I have made about 41 dollars here. But I have seen people who have made 1,000 dollars plus here! So it really depends on how much time you can devote to mylot.

Well, I guess it's true...I mean the hard work just to make the mini...in my case, it may take more than a month before finally achieving 'it' since I don't do mylotting full time...I only do it on week ends and sometime after my work...but ever since our household help left, I hardly have time to work here, that's why I am really going a bit slower compared to my past activities here....I don't have any active referrals working here, so I guess it's just myself I have to rely on to make some money here....

Yesterday I was responding to one discussion that she only done for 416 quality posting and get the minimum payment. That is WHY everybody is looking for the meaning of QUALITY DISCUSSION on here. To me it doesn't matter, just keep going while learning. and thankful to myLot for providing this cyberboard and I always look into the advantageous and not for disadvantageous.

Not worth it, if your just after the money. However, if you would use some other website anyway, why not use myLot, and earn while having a good time?

It really depends. If you are enjoying posting and sharing discussions, I think mylot is somehow worth it but if you are thinking about the money that you are going to receive, I guess you can say that it is not worth it. Let's just enjoy meeting other in this site and let's be thankful that mylot is giving us an amount although it is not big I think it is helpful. It is better than nothing to receive.

So far I have earned about 12 cents, I am a little confused on how the actual earnings are calculated though.
