Do you ever feel guilty...?

when you have too many websites to juggle reasonably. I don't even want to think about how many sites I am a member of, and it is sometimes months before I can get back to one. Of course I do myLot on a daily basis, but there are some others that I feel I neglect terribly. How do you juggle your websites? Do you allot a certain amount of time each day for them? Honestly, I think that if I did all of mine justice I would be on my computer 24/7! Please share your system if you have one.

no I don't feel guilty because I know my limits, how much time I have on the computer, what are my priorities and I don't join sites just for the sake of joining them, if I feel I have all I can handle I don't join anymore.

I wasn't suggesting that you did, I was just saying that I don't, I know what I can handle which is 3 sites, and I don't take on more.

I don't join sites just for the sake of joining them, winterose. I only join the ones that are appealing to me for one reason or another. Still, it would be impossible for me to visit each one on a daily basis.

I just replied to a post explaining how I am going to leave another site I am a member of because it is time consuming..Mylot is not one of them though, I love it here and I probably could spend most of my time online here at mylot..I have great friends and some people are really helpful, I can't imagine how I got around before this..So when it comes to money making sites, after Oct. 15, mylot and one other is going to be it..And the other site I may not even make money on, I only signed up so I can read my friends story and can comment on it if I like..And it is there just in case I want to use it, because it also has many tips and ideas..

I have been pondering over which of my sites I need to get rid of, carmelanirel, and I think I will hold it down to no more than 4.

Now you are talking about just money making sites, correct? Because I do have myspace, my family and friends are there and of course other sites I visit to get info from, not a social or forum site..

I actually have a tracker sheet my friend where I list all of my websites, mainly those that pay me and then I cross them off each day, which helps tremendously to keep track of what sites I have viewed in a day and what sites I have left, it's a system that works for me, and it's all the important sites, and now I have it on a spreadsheet so I can see at a glance what sites I have visited each day. But yes it can be very time consuming having to visit them all each day and so I do the important ones first, like obviously Mylot, goes without saying ;0)

Sounds like an excellent system, wolfie! I just might take a page from your book.

I do have trouble getting to all of mine. I am a member of many and they just get put on hold.

I do the exact same thing, Thoroughrob. The site has to interest me in some way before I decide to join, but I have a lot of interests.

I have a schedule for all of my websites. I work more than one at a time to make sure to get through all of them every day. I am joined with several also and try to dedicate to all of them daily. It is hard sometimes though when there is not enough time to do more for some of them.

I feel guilty about my inbox sometimes. I don't know why I feel an obligation to answer all these survey emails, participate in all these different types of websites I joined for points or profit doing discussion, reviews, etc. I am slowly but surely eliminating some, but even that takes time, getting unsubscribed or cancelling membership. My system is to do the most current in my inbox, go through as many as possible each day, and then and eventually delete the oldest.

I fear that I will never see the light at the end of the tunnel regarding my inbox, whittby, but I am seriously going to try and apply myself much better.
