There are two Paid to Post forum that very popular and having more member than any paid PTP forum like : size of paper or scavenger cash. Those two top PTP's are : myLot here and PlatinumLounge.
I've been a member of PlatinumLounge too. But to me, their ranking system is hard to follow, you have to be very active in PL to maintain your rank. While here in myLot, what we earn is fair as a compensation whether we are active or not. MyLot also have more quality in their discussion, as in PL people tend to post for having fun. So PL is more suitable just for a hanging out site and earn extra money (if you are active enough). If you want more valuable discussion myLot still the best for me ^_^
I write a more descriptive comparison between myLot and PL in my Blog. If any body interested, please view it in my profile.
BTW, are you agree that myLot is better than PL or do you prefer to vote for PL?
Any comments are welcome :)

Hello lusirafa! I am not a member of Platinum lounge but my sister is a member there. I know how it really works there and honestly, I don't like it there. I am very active here in mylot and like you, mylot has more quality in terms of discussion than there. So I would vote for mylot as the best PTP site.

yes, you're right..but I guess when it comes to closeness, platinum lounge members are close to each other than here.

There are lots of site that online people ( like us ) can earned money. Actually I found out that when I became active in using the net. I never thought before that it is possible to earn online.But I prove it wrong upon talking with other online earners.
The best site for me is mylot. Because unlike other site, mylot really pays. Im not sayng that other sites are not paying. But when it comes to the security of the earnings, mylot is the best.
Other sites do have expiration on the account so it really needs/ requires to be an active member because if you failed to log in for a week they will delete your account whether you already have $10. Thats true.
So for those who are looking for the god site, make mylot on your list and you will not refret. Happy posting friends!

Yes, I've join several PTP forum like friendsgear, scavengercash and sizeofpaper, they do have an expiration period for inactive member. That's why myLot is better than any of those PTP forum, myLot also trust worthy in paying. Others forum might delay their payment using some fake excuses, but myLot won't.

Personally I have signed up with PL and was never really impressed. I have actually tried many of the Forum sites out there that have offered payment for posting, and myLot will always rank #1. Personally when you can come in here and follow almost any discussion and meet many wonderful people and interact with them from all over the world, this site continues to rock.
As for Earnings this site is the Best as well. Sure you might only earn one level from your Referrals, but at the same time, the more active you are and the better quality your responses are, the better you will continue to make here as well.
Wishing you the Best.

I agree with you Friend,
There are lots of wonderful and helpful people here at myLot and they tend to respond the discussion in a friendly manner, this I wouldn't find at PL (maybe just in PL International Lounge where we can chat to PL member from the same country in our language).
The earning are also better here than PL, coz if we're not active, myLot wont decrease our earning, while PL DOES :(

hello, i have heard of Platinum lounge and i tried looking into it and i find it so complicated whereas here in mylot it is so simple and the earnings just becomes secondary because of the interesting discussions being thrown at you left and right. it is a very good mental exercise, it keeps the brain alive and spirits as well. i have another site that pays well, i just got into it, you get paid $2 for a 120 word postings to review a product, no need for you to wait for it to be approved and everytime you comment or rate someone, you get a cent. it beats writing so much words before you get a cent.lol. if you are interested .pm me and i will give the link.

Is that site is comparedbyus ?
Buddy, that site has been labeled a scam by many of myLot members. Since they only paying some and don't pays many of it's member. I'm happy with Ciao as I earn $ 37 last month and now waiting for my $ 160 from Ciao.
So thanks, but my answer is no.

I absolutely agree with you. I am also a member of platinum lounge but I quit since they keep on changing their ranking system and they mode of payment. Before when I first join platinum lounge, I am enjoying because I am paid every week. But when the gorilla store started, it change the whole picture of the members points. when you have money to buy in the store, it is easy for you to go up to a higher rank. But if you mainly depend on posting, you will be very much behind. It is really true, it is hard to cope witht the rankings much more if you are not active. But here in mylot you can be paid according to your participation. In Platinum? even if you participate the whole week if your points are low, you can't get paid. There is no specific points to reach. You just go with the flow... I don't like the sch

I agree with you. It is unfair to those who are honestly and seriously posting genuinely while others will have the same points even it they will just post a word or 2 words. You are at a lost when you will not spend money to earn more points. that's the the way I see it. I like mylot better that there. I have more than 100,000 there but I did not get anything. I am not sure if that is still my points because I did not log in to that site for 3 months already.

Wow you are a senior member at PL then ...
When I'm joined there, they already have that gorilla store and paid every 2 week. Hmm, no wonder you left PL after they change the rule. I think their contest and lounge lotto is unfair too, member can easily get points from this useless lotto and contest, leaving other member working so hard posting to keep the rank.
BTW, have a good time here Bebs :)

Mylot all the way!
I joined platinum lounge a while ago but I'm not active since it can get confusing sometimes and there are so many annoying adds!
Mylot barely has any except one at the top.
That's probably how platinum lounge affords to pay there members, through the adds they use on there website.
I like to have fun in mylot bu posting, but I always make sure that my posts are always still quality, not one or two liners, like I used to do when I was a newbie in this site,
OOPS!
So anyway,
mylot all the way!
It's much for sociallizing and friendly. :)

A friend asked me to signed up with Plantinumlounge which I did. That was the first and the last time I was there. I thought I know PL but I didn't. I really don't feel at home there. I could not be 'unfaithful' to mylot for long as mylot as been my haunt place for over two years now and I could not be anywhere happy then be in mylot. Call me silly for wasting my time here as I could have earned good money somewhere else but to me it is secondary matter as I have rooted myself in mylot and uprooting is almost impossible cos the friends I meet here are great people.

mylot is more on sharing thoughts and experiences and PL is quiet different because we are dealing to maintain and be more active to increase our rank because we could not receive a money if we are not participating to the contest and you can only receive or earn a money just for the seek of doing lots of effort.
While mylot is that if you will always share your thoughts in a day you will probably earn a cents

I am both to mylot and platinum lunge, frankly speaking i love to be active in PL than mylot the cause is obvious here in PL i am free to respond with my own liberty i mean with single word or if like may be descriptive and the minimum payout is low that is starts from 1$ and twice a month no need to request payment. But as compared to mylot here i have to be descriptive and quality maintained while starting or responding a discussion here is the chance of deleting the discussion so may decrease the earning.

MyLot seems a lot more professional that PL. It also seems like there are more opportunities to earn. And overall, I just enjoy it more! It's easier to understand, and I think just a better overall situation. The ranking system is confusing. :/

Hello lusirafa,
Based on their earning policies..
There are points that I consider that Mylot is better than PL and their are some points that I consider that PL is better than Mylot..
Like What?
In mylot you can earn money even if you spend some little hour in your computer
but you must achieve a minimum 10 dollar before you can request your payment.
In the other hand, in PL you must stayed a very long hour to earn some money.
But the advantage of PL is that they paid their members every week automatically in your paypal account. That's the good thing on PL
If your a member of PL and Mylot you will see their differences.

I'm glad that you have a good times here at mylot. Well, PL and mylot both have a plus and minus. It depend on your preferences : If you looking for a valuable discussion and only have a little spare time at the net, mylot is the one for you. But if you just want to post for fun and having a plenty of time to surf the net, PL will be more applicable for you.
Happy myloting Friend :)

As most common experienced of Mylotters, Mylot remains the best among the forums because it is different and is an honest paying site. We found a lot of features here that you can not find in other forum sites.

Mylot is a lot better than PL. I made the mistake of joining PL when enticed by a friend here. I just wasted my time there. They'd require a member to thousands of points before getting eligible to be paid. That is some sort of fooling the people. Mylot does not do that. Each post you make has corresponding payment and not at all required to accumulate anything. Mylot is a very simple, very fair and very informative site. Mylot does not require users to be active everyday in order to be paid. No forum site is better than mylot I should say.

Im agree myLot as the best PTP, in fact,im pretty enjoy chating here...from my personal experience, i have joined globalearntalk and quite active there, received payment...And i found out that on that site, the posting will easily get marked as spam, and receive numbers of infractions...

I am new to mylot and never tried PL.in fact, i'm new in these PTP business.I guess it all depends how much money you want, and if you're in for fun or for the num num ($$$ as i like to call it $$$). Either way, i'm liking this whole experiencie with mylot and i agree with you when you say people here have quality in their discussions.I'm wasting a lot of time just watching discussions and you see so many different perspectives that you end up always learning something or at least think:hey, why didn't i think of that?
At least for me it is this way.This were my 2 cents, don't know about trying PL though, i'm really liking mylot!
