Don;t get me wrong, I am really excited about MyLot! The idea of socializing online and getting coin for it? Sweet! I spent alot on time on Saturday responding to discussions and got about $1.12. Hmm. One trick, I am sure, is to get referals. Ok. But does anyone know what I can do personally to get more from MyLot?

Well I think you have done very well to get over a dollar in a day. A few weeks back and that would have been very difficult to achieve. A year ago and it would have been even easier.
I have a LOT of referrals (check out green text 'top referrers' bottom left of this page) but only a few hundred are active. You have to keep working hard to get new referrals all the time to replace those who drop out.
Oh, and myLot DOES pay - every month, on the nose. A very good payer which is rare on the internet!

That is really cool how you have so many referals. Could you share with me how you got so many? I love the idea of building networks and the absolute leverage it can achieve when accomplishing something. Whether it is making money or feeding the poor (I head up a food drive once a year). Can't wait to meet more people here, share my ideas and hear theirs. Looks like you have a pretty high response score! How did you achieve that? Been here for a long time?

I have a website myself, had it for about 5 years now but I don't get the traffic I want. What is the name of your domain? I would love to check it out! The idea of making webcash is always a hot topic for just about everyone! Would you be interested in a link exchange to help each other out?
I see you are from the United Kingdom! How is the economy in your neck of the woods? My town had a lot of industry based around auto parts and (not surprisingly) it is faultering. Nowadays there is not such thing as the one income family, or even two for that matter!

Good ideas! I will try to put that into effect as quickly as possible. I never thought of the market outside the US. Weird. There would be a lot more people as part of my audience if I include some of them! I plan on redoing the site anyway. I appreciate your help!

you have done very well,i think. at least i never got earnings over $1 one day. you truely had spent plenty of time on last saturday to win it.
it is proved that the earnings we get is relative to our rating,activity and post quality. since you have reached rating 9,you are paid more than me per post.~~lol~~
descriptive and sensible posts certainly increase earnings as well as accelerate upgrade.
some actions like upload photos and update your blog which linked to mylot often ignored by us while do work on increasing your earnings.
after all, work harder, paid more.

Thanks for the ideas. I did upload my first photo the other day and did get my first referal this morning so we are on our way! I like getting on here and responding and meeting new people! May I ask how I change my picture 'id'? It is still that generic one I would really like to switch it out with the photo! Any direction you can give me would be great!Thanks!

Thanks! I knew there had to be a way to change the avitar! And here I am with my new one! Without you I would still be stuck with the other one! :-) Does mylot really comp us for downloading pictures too? How long have you been doing this stuff?

wow, my dear friend, you get about $1.12 in a day is kind such really nice earning since not everyone able to earn those amount in a day. in fact the biggest earning that i have so far for one day only about $0.4 but i am happy to get that :)
if you would like to increase your personally, so you should work harder than before. but in my opinion when you work harder than before you would loose your enjoyment to this forum coz you have any target which you should fill out by your own self. my suggest, try to keep enjoy your existence in this forum and you would able to make more cents without your realizing coz you enjoy to be here ;)

I did do a lot of work for that dollar! The idea of doing that everyday would be a real drag which would, inturn, make coming to this forum a real drag. I see you very wise point. Come in. Post. Have a good time. Isn't that what life should be about anyway? Let's have some fun....it will all come out in the wash!

i found it really hard getting referrals myself and well i have basically relied on myself with mylot. he he you just have to make more friends, visit their sites, answer their disussions, interact more by answering more topics that is interesting to you. of course, do not forget to make quality posts with it.

Wow! You have a score over 4000! You must have been here for awhile or made lots of posts (or both!). Do you get more for being that high or is it the same? I think there is cut/paste option when you get to 500. Haven't gotten yet.
Have you received your first payout yet? Looks like they pay through paypal. My plan is to set it at $100 and just let it run until December and then take the cash and put it into stocks. With the market dropping they are a steal right now! What did you do/will you do with your mylot cash?

As a matter of interest, your post above of 18 words, kurci1, would have earned you nothing.
Posts at myLot need to be of good quality, on topic and about 40 words or more to earn. The number of words will vary week on week but the desire for quality will always be there. That is the result of my observations - not official MyLot data.

I am glad to get the tip about word count but usually I run about 4-5 lines any. Being a teacher I guess it is just natural to be 'wordy' anyway! :-) I did fill in all my interests and seem to be adding more every now and again. Got my first referal this morning so that I good! Sounds like Mylot is a very honest and stable website and I am glad I am here now! Thanks for the response!

That is probably some good advise, I am sure many people get to payout on their own and unless they have a huge amount of people being brought in as referals I think my case is not unordinary. I did get my first referal this morning! And I try to get on here and throw down a few posts each morning. It sure is neat to meet people from different parts of the world. Looks like you're from Australia? What do you do there? It's snowy here but may be a toasty 50 degrees sometime this week!

Consider it done. I am always looking for new avenues and the more streams of income the better! It looks like you are from Austria? I have never met someone from there! Can you tell me about you country's history (I am a real history buff)...I would love to hear it! With such a historical area I am sure you'll have to just post the highlights! What do you do for a living? I am teacher by trade but wear many other hats.

to earn from mylot you have to follow the rules and guidelines, refer users like family members, friends. you have to also work hard in the areas of posting quality discussions, responding to discussions most especially from your interest, you should also upload photos. once all these are observed and adhered to, you will found out you will contineously smile to the bank. goog luck.

Thanks for the response! I did get my first referal this morning and from what I hear getting over a dollar in one day is pretty good. Hmm. All for responding to people with the same interests as I do? Sweet! My first photo is in but I can't figure out how to change my 'id' to the photo. Any idea how to do that...you obviously changed yours! Is there any benefit to getting higher scores and what does the star rating mean? More pay?

I was told to always post at lest 4 lines when you respond to discussions. However, I do not always do that. Also when you go to tag the comment, tag it with something relevant.
That's really great for one day. I am never on here enough to make that much in one day. I have noticed that the earnings have increased some since the last upgrades though. It's nice.
Good luck.

I wasn't part of the action before the upgrades but I hear lots of stories about it! I did alot of posting for that dollar so I think the idea is to just come in and post a few, tag it properly (like you said) and generally have fun chatting and meeting people. The idea that there is money involved just adds icing to the cake. Thanks!

I wonder in the compensation has a sliding scale so that even if you get alot of posts in they would worth less so that no one can sit up for days putting them in. Hmm. I did change my avitar though! Doesn't mylot give us credit for pics too? Pretty cool! I don't know if I going to be staying up too late posting...earning that dollar was pretty rough. I think I will do a few a day, make it fun and just let it add it on its own! How about you?
