Double my earnings by utilizing all the features!

So, I hardly posted & started yesterday so I can take some time to make use of all the different features that mylot has to offer. Let's just say, I noticed that my earnings were almost double what they usually were for the same things.
If I switch to a fullscale, i'll see them almost triple. That means I could probably make at a guess about $2.30+ easy each day with not near as much effort as I was doing before without utilizing each and every feature!
It's definitely now officially recommonded by at least me, that you shouullld shouuuullld definitely make use of all of mylot's features. They help out more then you might think!
I'm testing out in the next few days how well my earnings will be after going through all my "unresolved discussions" in the next couple days. I've always wondered how well rating & marking best responses for people pays!

So by taking advantage of all of the different feature that mylot has to offer, which features do you mean? I noticed you mentioned rating and best responses but is there anything else we should take advantage of? And do you rate every single response you come across or just some? I've been a member for 2 days and made 55 cents the first day and about 25 cents the second...I didn't put nearly as much effort in the second it. You're near your 1000 post mark I see. 2.30 a day isn't great (calculating in the amount of time you put in to get that 2.30) but its better than 55 cents a day lol.

Oh, I also forgot to mention that I am making much more use out of the mylot code too which is basically the smiley faces, bold, italics, etc.

Thanks for the tip! You can also get WAY more bang for your buck on here with active referrals.

Well that's definitely true! Too bad it's hard to find people willing to be active referrals. *siiigh*. I've recruited a lot of people to Mylot but after about a week or two, sometimes lasting as long as a month they're gone and never seem to come back! I guess. I should just keep trying. This is a fun and worthwhile site & i'm not too entierly much here to make money, more.. the learning experience!
I'm suprised more people don't stay. I guess the whole making money thing makes them wonder about the legitimacy of the site?

Hi Louie! I've noticed that too.
Many recruits are just looking
to get rich quick and that is not
going to happen on Mylot.

Ah well. I guess to some degree it's always going to be like that.
But I guess it comes with the fact that is a paying site to post stuffff.

This is interesting. I've been on here for a few months now and I don't think I know about every feature. I honestly can't tell you majority. I guess I have to branch out a little bit. Thanks for sharing this.

Well, that sounds like a great idea!
Anything that helps us to earn more money while we're posting on here is very helpful so keep us posted on your progress.

Louie, I have not been here that long but I have seen on numerous occasions where you are willing to help people by offering suggestions or answering their questions.
You really go out of your to help people and I think you are one of the people that really makes this a fun place to be.
Of course everyone likes to see their totals go up but you aren't just filling up the boards with useless posts. If any in small way receiving more posts to your topic earns you even a little more than I am more than hppy to help. Consider it a small thank you, if nothing else, for the times you have helped others.

I completely agree with you on this. Many discussions have been started about how members can make the most money on mylot.com with their postings. Using everything that is given to us to post on here is vital for making progress on here.
Yesterday, I made $1.91 with less than 50 posts, only one photo uploaded, no referrals, and I started no new discussions. I believe that this was all made from my quality and length of the posts. I also use my smileys and sometimes use the bold, italics, and underline as much as I can.
Ratings are still a little confusing for me. I use them, but I'm not sure if they pay or not. I use them to help me respond to members posts and to let other members know how well I appreciate their opinions and advice. If it does pay, I'm not sure how much it helps.

Yeah, but it's probably best that we don't know how Mylot's payment system works, just that it pays.
Or well, that's what I think anyways.

Interesting thoughts. For me, in order to make that much, I would have to be a lot more active in here than I am, but lately, I have no real complaints with the amount of $$ I am earning in here. I think a lot of it, is hit and miss when it comes to earnings on here. I know it has even been from month to month on here as well. But anyone who has the time to spend in here and make a decent amount in here each month, I definately say more power to you for sure.

I never knew that rating and the like will get you mondo mylot money. Well, good as you can earn on mylot anyways. I love to maximize my earnings. I am confused on the pictures though. Can they come from anywhere? Are there issues with using other peoples photos on mylot or is it a "Its on the internet therefore it is game" mentality?
I always wanted to post photos but I am scared I guess that someone will take issue with it.

Hello LouieWpHs04,
Sounds like fun discovering and using everything possible to increas your earning here at mylot. Even though they are small things if they can add up it will become big. When you mention making used of the bold letter features here at mylot, I was stufified and keep looking at it. I now discover it is on the mylot code where you get the emoticons. It's great discovering it. I hope this will add up to my earning too. This is a very good information you shared here. I am just trying everything here on these response of mine. Have a great day and I hope you will discover more stuff here that can benefits us all member of mylot.

Yeah i have noticed that too. I made a test i posted same amount of responds and topics on one day and when i used rating systems,longer posts,smiley faces etc the earnings were bigger almost 100% bigger. That is a very huge improvement in earnings. I also noticed that the longer your responds are the better. This may be selfexplanatory to some people, but not for all. I make around dollar aday and that is enough for me as i don't have whole day time posting here. I do other things too :) so it will take little over a week to get a 10$ and payment :)

Well yeah, until you hit the 500 posts or whatever, you can't really use allll the features. Some tips for you are you should post at least 2-3 sentances on each discussion, use the smileys n' etc feature(Mylot code located to the left of the posting area) once you hit 200 posts, and once you hit 500 posts try to make use of the upload picture feature at the bottom of the posting area. I believe it's 500 posts, anyways! Of course, rating & marking best responses is helpful too! See the plus, minus, and an! next to everyone? Mark plus or minus to rate someone based on what you personally thought of their response, and mark the exclamation point if you want to report a member for "abuse" such as not following Mylot's guidelines! There is also the blog feature which I personally haven't really used yet but i've heard you can earn a decent amount from that too!Keep in mind also when making and responding to discussions you should try to focus more on your interests or your "'niche" so to speak like. Are you a computer kind of guy? Gaming? etc. Focus on that area more often then others. Of course, exploring other interests is fun too but make sure you have something interesting to say whether it be a discussion, or a response!

the most amount of money that i make each day here is about $.50. it seems like starting discussions gets you more money than responding to them, but making $2.30+ sounds impossible. lol.

It isn't impossible at all! Just make your responses about two more sentences longer than you are doing now. Update your profile, upload pictures, add mylot.com codes, and comment on people who respond to your discussions. I hardly ever start discussions and still can make about $2 easily. You don't even have an avatar and you have almost 200 posts.
Think about it this way. If you and your close friends were talking, what would you say to them? How would you express yourself? Think of all these thousands of members as friends asking questions or commenting on things they like. Have fun and enjoy it and you'll see your earnings increase....I promise!

Hmm this is very interesting and a very helpfull discussion. Im currently trying to make over 1 dollar per day by posting a lot more, adding tags to discussions, and rating. I would upload photos but it keeps saying error whenever I try to upload a picture. I don;t know why maybe its it's the operating system I use. But anyway it's always good to be active and post a lot. It's the only proven method to increase your earnings.

Wow! That was awesome! I tend to utilize all of myLot features but I never thought of others. I am quite frustrated because I can't use smileys when posting response or giving comments. :( But anyway, my primary goal as of the moment is to make 200 posts so that i will be able to use the smileys feature. i try to make posts as many as i can, ignoring the length of my response. i will get back to it after a reached my 200th post.
@LouieWpHs04 (4555)

Yep! Then after 200 your new goal would be 500, probably! After hitting 500 you can pretty much utilize the features 100% to raise those Mylot earnings of yours,

I've been on Mylot for over a year and I'm still learning how to use this site. Thanks to helpful members like you, I can begin to use other aspects of Mylot. I will be curious to see if it impacts my own earnings, but if not, I still like learning new things. Thanks again.

If I switch to a fullscale,What do you exactly mean by that friend. But at present, i spend some 2.hours daily here, and i average around 1 dollar, which is far more better than i have earlier. I used to start some discussions and make some 10 to 15 responses a day, and that's it. I see that my earnings are doubled here.

Well, I only was in a testing stage really. I could have posted so much more, and did so much more but I wanted to experiment to see how much I could with individual features. Fullscale would mean me putting all the different features together and putting them to use to the best of my ability!
You should try to use the smiley faces too, every little bit helps! Also, uploading a picture every now and then should help you to notice a difference. Make sure to be rating discussions & marking best responses for your own too! All of this should actually help you out quite a bit!
Hopefully my tips and explanations made sense to you.

Wow Louie! You really seem to have figured out how to use myLot's features to your advantage! Good for you!
I have belonged here for almost a year, but haven't started using myLot really until last month. I do love coming on here and learning all of the things that myLot has to offer. I also try to use the smilies in my posts and to post a picture whenever I can. I forgot entirely about the italics and bold, etc.
But now that I am over 500 posts I have begun adding photos to my responses when it is applicable. I just try to enjoy the sites and making new friends and it seems that the earnings just come along with the enjoyment.

Very interesting as I may say. I have learned more ways in increasing my earnings here in myLot from your article. I will try to do and follow what you have suggested. At least I could increase my earnings later on. Great post man. Thanks and goodluck on your earnings!

I guess I have been using these features since the day I came to
know them. I always rate everybody who responds to my discussion
and to every discussion I respond to.
And I always want to mark the best response. I feel somewhat heavy
when I have a lot of unresolved discussions and it keeps me from
starting more.
I have also been using the smileys.
So what else should I do to earn more?
I guess I just have to be busy and participate more. So what we
really need to do is participate.

Yep yepppp. The biggest thing you could do is participate. Obviously the more your participate the more you should make! Have you tried uploading photos? They help more then you would think. You should also as long as you're responding, pop in a smiley face or two. They help a bit, and if you do it enough... they seem to help a lot!
Also, the more popular your discussion seems to be, the more you'll make. Maybe putting a bit more thought into each discussion you make may help more then you think ?
That's all I can think of now. Possibly even trying to find your 'niche so to speak would help as well? Like. What are your areas of expertise? Try to focus more of your posts & discussions into them so that you can come out with better responses & discussions!
They also have blogs you can do, I don't really do them myself.. I think that's the only feature I don't do, but i've heard from others that they help as well!
