Why Do They Give Up?

I joined the site about 9 months ago. I posted a few things and didn't get much of a response because I hadn't established myself with people up to that point. I also hadn't added many friends, therefore not allowing people to know that I even existed. I got discouraged and didn't use the site up until last month. Once I got re-established and started adding friends, well my feeling of being uncomfortable quickly dissapeared. It may be that they gave up for some of the same reasons.

Firstly forget about making money. Get involved in the discussions and then, one day you will suddenly look at the earnings figure on the left of this page and realise that you have made something. Don't order the Ferrari on the strength of it, but bit by bit it will grow until you get the magic words friom myLot control "Congratulations, you have earned enough in February to qualify for March's payment! We will process payouts on or before March 15". I got 2 cents for telling you that. Easy really.

It takes a lot of time to become addicted to mylot, I think, lol. Some people may be put off by the fact they are only making a few pennies a day...though the earnings are increasing...yesterday I made around 50 cents! If you have a way to contact the people you referred, you might be able to email them and say hey! I made x amount last week! Or "check out what I learned on mylot..." I like mylot not so much for the money, but because of the interesting things I've learned, the inspiration that cures writers block, and the nice supportive people here that actually seem like they care about the same things you do when no one else seems to. I would probably belong if we were not paid - but I doubt I would post as much as I do now!

if you refer them in, you should be taking the opportunity to guide them. What I normally do is to ask for their messenger ID, like YM or MSN, and I will add them in and chat with them. Most of them are pretty new to earning money from the net concept.. so I took the opportunity to show them and help them whenever needed.

Well, the website is a very large place. They might have found some other websites that they prefer better or they just don't have time to go online.

i think they want to make money faster ,but mylot can not satisfied them.ok, in fact, at the begining, i went there for money too,but after two days, i find there is a goog place to improve my English ,i can study English when i answer other people 's questions. i think it is a good method to learn emglish.

I dont know whos fault it is I have tried to get referals but no one signs up under me I have ). but the people who do sign up ahave to get int here andget into the discussions and they will learn how much fun we have here and how many goofd friends come out of it all. and then some are just lazy and dont want to do anything

Not all people are patient and for people who are not inclined to type and respond to discussions for lengths of time , it is likely to be frustrating if they do not start earning.They must first get used to the idea of posting long responses and must have the aptitude to be descriptive . They may just post one or two liners for which we may not get any earning update.Then they will stop writing because they would think it is a waste of time.Someone had said that we can upload photos only after reaching 500 points.So, it becomes a vicious circle.You start earning and then you get more earnings and you are even more inclined to write more.You yourself are getting impatient[with 83 discussions].How will people who are invited [they join in with expectations] have the patience to go through?I have also invited a few but they are not inclined.We willhave to plod along.Slow and steady would give results one dayI am sure.

I think most people want to learn how to make money online, but don't think it can be this easy. then there are people who don't understand how the site works and just walk away. the best way to keep your referrals here is too keep an eye on your referral count and make sure you go and say hi as soon as you see they have signed up. let them know how the site works and the fun and interesting people that are here. if you keep in touch with them they will come back for more

It is no ones fault chillymullet - it is just that not everyine feels the same way about this site as we do! I had one referral but they gave up on it too! I still mamage to make pay out without any referrals though! xxx

Not everyone is geared to be able to stay on myLot! You have to be a certain individual, to be able to use the utilities that are here on myLot! It is not a site for moneymakers! It is a site where serious individuals post and discuss, serious topics! I personally don't refer anyone to myLot, unless I am assured that they would even be interested in the type of format that myLot is!

I think it is because it takes a really long time to get any money from here. Also people don't read the rules until something is wrong. HEHE When they say descriptive responses they don't mean small one liners. So when someone comes on here and does yeah nope and have a good day then get no money for 50 of those kind of posts they think it is too difficult to make money here. Basically answer the question well and you will earn. But since most people don't know this right away then they leave blaming the site and not themselves. I had one referral here and they didn't do much but I still have been about to get a few cashouts though I am not very active.

Its nobody's fault, not mylot and not you of course. New users usually join thinking of making fast money. So maybe try to to get more referral or intro them to your friend and let them add your new referral, maybe they will stay in mylot.

When people participate in such programs, they think it is easy to earn some extra money. But it is not. You have to work hard for it. People who don't have patience , or want to get rich in one day , give it up. It's not your fault at all !

It is the attitude problem.Most of the people who leave mylot are nomads in the web.Trying one here and one there for quick money without any conviction and passion.Once you got acquainted well with the very idea of a decent forum with great friends you develop a bondage and get stuck here.Money is slowly pushed down to the second place.You start to like mylot more and eventually the friends circle ,the quality of the discussions and your earnings improve. People are very impatient and want big money for the two liner trashes they produce.If they don't get they quit.

MyLot is not for everyone, no site is. It could just be that the people you refer do not find myLot to be a good fit. I have that problem. MyLot is more about communication, not earnings. The earnings are an added bonus.

It's probably because they're thinking it'd take them a lot of time just to reach that ten-dollar mark for their first payout.

Maybe they just don't have time rght now. Or maybe they're a part of other paid forums already. i now it's hard to find time to post on both so firt one to sign up are the winner most of the time;)

Don't worry about it so much. There are seldom people having much time to surf on the internet every day. When they have time they will come if they really love to communicate with all the friends here.

Well i think your rating is just about 83 and you are looking like a newbie like me, and you are talking about your referals. If you do have some referals then could you plz tell me how you got them. So that i can also got a few referals. Thanks
