A fellow myLoter announced that he thinks he will be reaching the minimum pay-out on his 1,000th post. Then another one claimed that he/she reached the pay-out when he/she has a little more than 300 posts. How about you guys? How many responses/comments/discussions you made before reaching the minimum pay-out? What do you think made you reach the cash-out threshold fast/faster? Or what do you think you should have done that could have hastened you cashing out? For new members like me, at how many number of posts do you think you have to do to reach pay-out?

I think I will reach payout in about 10,000 posts, at my current rate anyway. Obviously people who post more quality responses and discussions reach payout more quickly. Happy Mylotting!

I'll get mine maybe on my 500-600th post (I hope so!). But let's not get disheartened friend. As long as we are enjoying posting our short responses, it's all worth it. However, let's follow what others are saying, more activity, longer sensible posts, upload pictures then maybe we will increase our earning rate. Or maybe, it's time to recruit people who can do myLot daily.

I may have forgotten how many posts I had when I reached the payout but I'm sure I got my payout before I reached the 500th posts. Now I'm trying to reach the payout before I reach the 800th posts. happy mylotting.

That's great! Second pay-out before the 800th post. If it all comes from posting, that's an average of at least, $0.25 per post. Have you uploaded lots of photos here too or have started a "hot" discussion that gained lots of responses?

At my 1000 post I had reached two payouts. The first payout i ever had was about $18 and some cents, the second time I reached payout I made $11 and some number of cents. So I think I am doing pretty well, earning $30 by just posting, though one thousand posts are a lot of words haha. It is all worth my time though, I really enjoy hanging around here. It goes fast if you have fun! It all depends on the person who is posting, some are better, and others are not as good at getting the maximum amount of money for each post. We'll never know what we are doing wrong or right with mylots secretive system hehe.

Wow, that's great. Yes, $30 is good enough for my internet and phone bill . I do hope I can reach my pay-out this month too without needing to reach 1000 posts. How long is your average posts? do you usually post more than 5 lines?

Hello eichs1, i reached the payout limit at the beginning of January 2009 with around 210 points. I made the most money with commenting on my own discussions because it's very easy money to earn. You know your topic, you don't have to think so much like when you respond instead to many different discussions . A faster cash out can only be done with responding/commenting/starting discussion and posting pictures to discussions, perhaps using the myLot code (smileys) after you reached the 200 points. Take care of your Star rating, keep it above 80 points by posting quality responses/discussions. The responses should be HELPFUL for other readers, they will give you for this some "+"-ratings in return which is calculated into your rating and in the earnings for that day! I guess i will get three or four payouts when i reach 1000 posts. You can try this experiment: First day: Post 80 one liners Second day: Post 20 four liners Third day: Post 10 eight liners For me the last one pays out the best, less time wasting, more quality in the response/discussion. I guess the first one gives you some money, but your rating could drop because in the eyes of other persons it looks bad . Tell me your experience about it! Have a great time in myLot!

Now I need not wonder how you can do four payments your 1000 posts. You give informative, helpful answers. The process you just shared to know which type of post pay more is simple and logical. I might do it sometime but for now, your conclusion is enough for me. Thanks for sharing it.

I am sure the answer to this question will vary from user to user, because every member thinks differently and hence the quality of their responses will be different. I am new to mylot and right now I have made $0.75 for about 50 posts.Thus, you can say that it would take me more than 600 posts to reach the pay out.However, lets keep our fingers crossed as there are a lot of variables involved in it. Hope you get to the pay out fast. Cheers

With $0.75 for 50 posts, that is right, you need to do 600 posts to reach the pay-out. Let's see if those who did it with shorter posts will give us tips on how to do this faster and smarter.

Reaching payout is very much so a individual thing. It's is all about the content, active refferals, photos for each individual person. I am trying to reach the ten dollar payout in 600 post. I am also doing various task that are like two to three dollars. I am fairly new to Mylot and originally came here to make money. I'm staying here for the content and money now. Since joining and spending some quality time here, I have grown to like it. For me getting on a website more than one time a day is a miracle. Mylot is enjoyable and at the same time you are getting paid for it. You can search for just about anything that you like to talk about and just start typing. It's so easy and fun at the same time. My next thing for Mylot is to get some active refferals as that will increase my earnings and get my friends the same benefits that I get from Mylot. This website is very different than most of the things you can do online to make money. It's not crap or you know that stuff that you think is just taking up space on the web. I can't wait until I can use photo's and reach Payout. Enjoy

You are right, reaching pay-out depends on each individuals activity - number of discussions and responses made, photos posted, and the newest, tasks completed. But there's one thing more, the quality of discussions and responses posted. If we single out the responding portion alone, some are paid more than the others. This solely because myLot gives premium on quality (some say longer or more detailed responses).

Ok so I reached my payout in 28 post but I really reached it by the task that we are able to do. I like to write a lot so I did the one's that you have keywords and you have to write the four paragraphs. They were worth two dollars each. So I really think like I said before that it is all about the work that you do and the quality of work that you do. Everyone should try the task as they are easy money. Some of them are not worth doing for what they want to pay but they are fun.

It varies actually because no one knows exactly how much we earn every post. With my first payout, I had posted almost 400 before reaching the $10. payout. Then, I was not conscious of the earnings, but when I got it that was the yearning of being conscious with the quality and substance of what I post. Now, am trying to reach $25. payout for an estimate of 750 posts. We never know really, but I may say I gained more now on my second.

$25 for 750 posts is quite high but if you think you can do it, go for it! As for me, that will be a great toll. There are times I run out of words to say or others beat posting on what I am supposed to say. There are also instances that I got carried out reading the responses and comments that I forgot to post.

I remember that i reach my first payout when I reach was almost 150 post. The secret ingredient is not about the number of post it is about the quality of post that you have shared and the quality discussions that you have started. So keep on posting and sharing your quality post here. Make 4 or more lines when you make a post and make sure it is of quality. happy mylotting!!!!

That's great! It's almost $0.75 per post! I already have more than 200 posts but I still have a long way to go to reach my pay-out. I will follow your advice - quality discussions and posts always.

generally for each answer we give we get 1 cent and with this i thought if we give 1000 posts we can get 10 $. so decided to give more answers to get 10$ soon . after above 500 posts , i didn;t get first payout here upto now and i have only 4.56$ now. and hoping to get first payout in this month if i give more answers here . if our answers are genuine and are too big we can get more cents i think. and with this we can get first payout soon i think. u can also upload photos in every discussion post and u can upload photos in every discussion catogory. so by this way also u can get some cents daily. and if we give more referrels ,we can get more cents daily. so give more answers to others posts and give atleast 5,6 of u;r own discussions daily and give referels daily and give photo uploads daily,then u can earn more cents and can get first payout soon.

You are right there friend. We can do lots of things to have more earnings. But I still have lots of posting to do to reach the ability to post pictures on discussions I am answering. I have posted photos in some discussions I started though and I believe they earned me some cents.

Based on my current number of posts, I already earned 1.60. I don't really know their point system here. I also find it hard to get any referrals. They are not as patient as me. But I am glad that I am doing well here. I am surprise that members are participating in my discussions. It challenges me to start sensible discussions at all times. I love to be here in mylot even if I am only earning little. Happy Mylot!!!

I'm with you. It's always a sweet surprise to see members sharing their insights/knowledge on discussions we started. I'm sure many are doing it to earn a little but you can always sense that there's more in the responses. The concern, the encouragement, the desire to help people are somehow felt along the lines of discussions.

Do post more friend if you have time. I am really enjoying it here. I am gaining friends, I am free to share my opinion, I learn and I earn.

There is no fixed number of posts to reach payout. It depends up on many factors. As per my view Maximum is 1000 posts. mylot will give minimum of 0.01 cent for each post so it would be 1000 posts to reach maximum posts. If you maintain quality you can reach payout easily. If we comment on some posts our number of post will not increase but countable to earn.

If you are just responding, then you are right. You need at most 1,000 posts to reach pay-out. Comments to responses are not included in our number of posts but we still earn from them so normally, anyone can reach $10 with lesser number of posts.

I think you get a little over 1 cent per response. So that would equal about 700-1000 responses. But then you have referals and stuff aswell. If you want to find out when you're getting your payout just check the top of the page beside your username and it will have to the ammount you earned. Once you reach your payout point I think it automatically goes into your paypal.

As shared by others, there are times that a post is worth more than 1 cent. I can attest to that. Try to lengthen your responses more and you will see. You are right. Referrals can also help us earn more. The problem is, it's hard to get referrals this days.

Indeed friend. It will be a long way to go if we respond with one liners.

It only shows that quality can beat quantity right? if you start quality discussions then the rate that you will be paid is by far bigger than if you just asked "what is your favorite color." I think that it's possible to reach payout after 500 posts for sure. Maybe the payout minimum for the person with 1000 posts was higher? I reached mine in about 400 posts I think. Just wait and see. If you have around $5 in your account right now then you'll reach payout probably after your 500th post right? :) Good luck!
