Recently, i was invited by a friend here in myLot to join another website like myspace, you can earn by many ways.. i just signed up yesterday and i was given a $5 bonus.. i tried commenting on videos, photos, profiles.. but i found it so really nonsense commenting on nonsense blogs out there.. what members do there is just to make money and the sense of creating meaningful blogs and discussions is just waste of time.. you can see comments like "good video", "nice one", "cool", and each comment is paid 2cents but only 10 comments are allowed for every category.. i counted the earnings everyday if you complete all these and you can earn at least $2 a day...
I'm not that person who always want to earn money.. It's my fullfilment joining interesting discussions here which keeps me going and sticking with myLot..
Happy MyLotting to all^__^

Wow, that website you're talking about is cool! I think I've heard about it before. I just forgot what it's called.
Anyway, the first reason why I stick to myLot is money. Don't get me wrong, I'm not greedy, hehe. It's because my family is facing a financial crisis now and I would like to help them in any way I could. Even for just making money online. Even though I know it's really slow to make money online.. I'm still giving it a try. That was my first main reason but as I get to venture the world of myLot, my motives changed. I realized I want to make more friends here and get a good reputation. I also want to improve my grammar and English Speaking skills because I think it's already getting very rusty, which I hate. I still want to be the person my friends knew that's got a lot of knowledge when it comes to English.. I still want to be the one whom they can count on. Like, "What is the english of this word?" This and that.. I still want to be that person.
I also stick with myLot because there are really a lot of very interesting topics here and I don't get bored at all. No matter what it takes, I'll still give it a shot.
That's it. Happy myLotting to you too!

If I have a problem, I come to mylot, and sometimes by answering other people's discussions, I find a bit of solace from it. And I also get some satisfaction from all of the answering and commenting too. I find that mylot is one of the best forums every on the internet. It is not only a platform for everyone to mingle and share ideas and discussions, but also problems and I suppose the best part is the satisfaction that one gets. Totally humbling and I love every minute here. However, we have to do other things in life as well, and I need to 'tear' myself away from mylot, even though I'm doing work or at home trying to catch up on sleep.

Well, overall, there are many Good reasons why I am keeping active here in myLot. I have met many wonderful people from all over the world, and have learned a lot about a lot of different topics and such as well. Where else can you go and talk about things going on in your life, and get so many diverse answers and help as well? The Extra $$ is nice since I do just about reach payout in here every month, but even when I don't this is still a Great place to be.

Friends, creative outlet, and a bit of cents. Those are probably the three reasons why Im sticking to myLot. The bond that the friendships get established on this site are quite genuine. I can attest to that. The site also gives us a medium or way to express our thoughts. Then participating also gives us a few cents a day and over time while we are enjoying sharing our thoughts, the cents roll in and become full dollars. I guess it really isnt much but one wouldnt mind since we are having fun right?
Im thinking that you are referring to mypage5 with that description that you have mentioned. Its either that or ezhippo. But mypage5 is gaining popularity nowadays. I havent signed up to both. Im still sticking with myLot and I have a habit of focusing my efforts on just a few sites.

There are many reasons why I stick to myLot. Some of them include it's discussion quality, look and feel and functionality. Money is not that important to me. Mylot pays less than some other sites but it makes us learn new things more than any other site.

I totally agree! Some sites the topics are just so random and nonsensical that it just turns you off and you don't want to stay there anymore. I've had that happen to me before a few times, and left those sites because I didn't think it was worth my time and effort. MyLot is a lot better though, there's actually interesting topics and intelligent people to have conversations with, even if there is the occasional weird person that pops up and spouts nonsense. Happy myLotting to you too!

there are 1001 reasons why we should stay in mylot. i will mention three of them. first and foremost, my lot really pays. i came across your profile and we are in the same soil. i have my payment proof so rest assured that Filipinos are being paid. Second, there are lots of kababayans here and you can relate topics related to locals.The third one, English is the medium that is used here so we Filipnos don't get the hard time of posting. wish you well here and looking to hear about your first pay out.

i'm on vacation right now and what i do is just staying here at home.. i think i can reach that minimum payout within a month if i keep on myLotting at least 5 hours a day.. Now i just posted more than 27 so i think it's not hard to reach that amount.. as myLot says "Keep on participating and you can reach that amount without knowing it.".. God Bless..

I'm on mypage5 also and I know exactly what you mean. A lot of the people who leave one or two word comments will probably not get paid for those few words they leave on blogs and on video comments( I'm still trying to figure out what "good web" means..LOL)If they took the time to read the rules it states that people will not be paid for one or two word comments or leaving a picture as a comment.I agree with you,a lot of it is nonsense , but I feel that the mypage5 site could be so much better if some of these people would simply follow the rules. I think mypage5 has a lot of potential to be a great site. I like mylot a bit more also, but that probably because I've been here a lot longer and feel more comfortable here then any other site at the moment.

You may have been credited for those one or two word comments for the moment but when it comes time to get paid mypage5 will deduct money from your balance if they see that you didn't contribute valid responses to any blogs or video's.They have done this to a lot of people already who try to cheat their system and don't follow their rules. They are also banning cheaters also. They do watch what their users.

I think the reason why they can't control their current situation is that they offered higher rate that's why people who wants to make money online will just post short comments in order to be credited.. i tried making those 1-liner comments and i got credited.. and i uploaded 400 photos and i got $8 with that.. but i don't get the feeling of staying with that site... myLot is still my site ^_^

i don't think you can comment well with videos.. just like funny videos, you can just say, "wow! nice..".. do you need to explain all the content of the video in order to get credited? I think it's worthless..
You don't have many comments on a good video, but with a poor video, i think you can say more..

Hi there, I also belong to that website you are talking about, and I agree. Most people put short one word answers and some say things that have nothint to do with the original question. Mylot is soooooooo much better run than that site although I think they are trying to stop some of it but havent yet succeeded. I guess they dont want to have to delete most of their members for not complying with the rules. Honestly I have to say that I am on that site mostly for the money. I have a couple friends whom I write to, but other than that, its make my money and Im gone. Here on mylot, the people for the most part are nice, make good conversations and respond, not like that other site where people write a few words, call it a blog and never return to it.

yes, I've tried commenting on one blog but they never answered.. I don't think also that their blogs were original or just a copy-paste haha maybe that site wants to gain popularity in just a short time... but i don't think making it that fast will lose their way... I think it's more of a dating site haha.. I've noticed that..

Everyone has pretty much said it for me. I like to see the different opinions. I mean, reading news is one thing, but when you can comment on what is happening and have an interesting debater, that is great! Don't get me wrong, I love the money too :)

My reasons fro sticking with mylot are this: I come in here because I have so much fun, as it is great to be able to share our opinions with others and get paid for them too. The fact that we make lots of friends in here is great too. I have learned so much from others in here, and I hope they have learned from me as well. That is what it all about, is being able to help others, and we help them. The money is a bonus, because I would come in here probably even if I didn't get paid. It is one of the reasons, but not the most important one to me anyway. Well, good luck to you and happy mylotting.

Haha! I think you're talking about mypage. Yeah, it gets boring in there after few days of doing the routine. Lots of plagiarizers too! Like you said, it's the fulfillment of joining interesting discussions. Before i learned about earning on the internet, i used to frequent forum and would actively participate. The problem with forums, there's always a specific topic depending on what type of forum. Their general discussions aren't that broad and people there would prefer to discuss what the majority talks about. So i was in search for a forum where anything can be discussed and i remember that my friend told me that i can basically talk about anything here in myLot. And so i joined and i'm still still here after 8 months.
