I have seen a lot of post on here about mylot not paying all that well. So my question is, is it worth it? It seems like you have to spend a lot of time for very very little money.
I don't think that there is really anything on the internet that you can make a descent buck at. I know that a lot of people are turning to the computer to try to make some extra money, wih the economy being crap. There are so many scams out there and a lot of people are getting sucked right into them!
I saw one post that said she spent the whole day on Mylot and only made 17 cents. That's bull!!
Any comments??

You need to check ou tthe tasks. You can earn money writing articles on mylot.
You can also earn money on associated content, text broker, and ehow if you like to write.

I do work on all three but textbroker has been paying me the most. They list open assignments and then you submit yours and if accepted you get money in your account. they pay out once a month. I have made almost 80 dollars my first month there.

I am familiar with ehow but I have never heard of associated content or text broker before. I will have to look into those. Thanks.

Yes, alot of time has to be spent on myLot in order to earn each day. Quality discussions where you have many responses is the best way I've found to earn. I primarily respond to discussions but it's not all that profitable. myLot is consistant in paying monthly and it's a good way to learn. Like to read about other cultures and lifestyles. Also enjoy the socializing aspect of the site.

Hi pcblt99,you must be a new member to this site,is not it?This same question actually comes into all of our minds when we join this site.Mylot is not about earning money only,it is making new friends also.I think a lot of new money making opportunities can also be found with help of this site.

I think if you are looking for quick money,mylot probably is not a good idea to work on because it really payslow as you mentioned but you ar elooking for chatting with people, sharing the daily things, creating some interesting discussions to talk about, it is a great place for that.

for the money,i dont know if it's worth or not. after all,i'm only new here.but i do feel one cant get much from online earn. except u have lots of referals.but i dont like that.so,just to know only minority get a lot online.
but to me,why i choose it? cause my native language is not english.here,i can learn some native english from the english-speaking members. what's more,i also hope to get some true friends through the communications.
i like it.there is another reason,u can talk almost all the legal topics here.u even can get ur problems settled by others' help.so wonderful!

well one thing which is very clear to me and I should restate is that "mylot is not a money making site" and those who think that this is site for money making in my humble opinion are mistaken.Mylot gives a cash incentive for being on the site and actively prticipating in the activities ,discussions and newly introduced tasks ,My lot is a community of like minded people discussing various topics of interest to them and one of the topics is money making on line and those who are intersted can take part in the discussions and dicover for themselves the money making formula.The way mylot pays is not cetain I found that being on the site does not ensure money it is the content and originality and freshness which gets you the reward
I am in mylot fro last 3 years or so for fun sake I enjoy it.I have not made any money yet still I love the site
I am from India and am aged 78 I like to read discussions on mylot amd actively participate in the debate .I know it is not a money making site but you could get idea of money making here .The opinions expressed here in are of the individuals and bear verification .One should not go for what is posted here and should not follow without self-authentication.Yes there is money on the net but barring 1-2% sites others are pure scams so beware and to be driven by money making idea to mylot will not bea the desired fruit for that one has to sek else where if intersted i could be touched through a PM
thanks

You have hit this nail right on the head. I could not have said what you said any better. THIS RESPONSE DESERVES THE BEST RESPONSE.

As was said by another responder; if someone is looking to get rich quick than yeah, mylot probably isn't worth their time.
But for me, mylot is definatly worth the time I put into it. In fact, now that I have limited access to the net; mylot is one of the few sites that I put the time into.
It's not for the money thought (that's just a bonus). Mylot is just a great site to hang out in. Some wonderful people posting nice thought-making conversations. It gives me somewhere to turn when I have issues of my own and some days just seeing that I'm not the only one with problems really helps me. If my day is going bad, I can log on here and read about people who are having it rougher than I am... and I can usually get some needed giggles and cheering up from other discussions on here.

Mylot as everybody knows is not a good earning site. You may not earn much here but the knowledge gained is much more worth your time here. I have been here for more than 3 years and there is no reason for me to quit from mylot as I like it here despite the pathetic payment. I never want to think of the earning side but more to the fun I have in participating in the discussions and responses. I think I have gained many friends and learned many new things from mylot and many who are banned reapply to be a member here again. The longer you are here the more addicted you become and you find your time here is well worth it.

Well if your here just for a fast dollar then no its not worth the time, but if your here to learn and share your knowledge as well as make a few extra bucks then yes I think its worth it, dont get me wrong I understand that its frustrating when you spend a lot of time and effort posting and your earnings barely move but it is satisfying when you recive that paypal notification and they finally pay, so to me its still worth it, and you can learn a lot of helpful things here too.

If you love to socialize, you'll love it here. If your here just to make some easy cash, you should probably leave and find a better site to suit your needs. This is a social networking site of some sort, so go out there and talk, meet new people, talk about things you love. If you do that, the money will roll in. Try not to think of the money and it will come. Trust me.

I think you should try it for yourself and if that someone claiming that he or she spent the whole day and yet earned only 17 cents, then I guess, he or she is not doing it correctly on how to earn here very well.
Most users just post topics even if they don't know the FAQ and the rules here on Mylot that will only delete their posts once they created a discussion that violated the rules of Mylot. Other members even ask why they got deleted, they don't know that they participated on a discussion that was also deleted by Mylot because it violated the rule. So if you wanted to post a topic that will not be deleted and that your earnings will not also be taken, then follow the guidelines here on Mylot.
I have no mumblings about my earnings here. Be it a single cent or not, I enjoy being with my friends and share my knowledge to everyone who wants to know something. If you have more time, then observe yourself on how much you can earn for the day. I have been paid here constantly eversince I joined so I am satisfied. The last month was the only month I missed my payout because I wasn't able to reach the minimum because of my recent vacations. But now I am nearing payout once again. You will never say anything crap if you proved something which is real. This site really pays and worth your time. After all, we all joined here for free.

oh,my friend, the firstly, your aim of getting on the mylot is to make a money or to communicate with the other people, all field,the study, the living, the knowledge of all part of the life, and some skill on the certain field,some experience of living in some period of time in the human being,i think the latter one is the more important than the former,you can get more instruction advice or some knowledge in some field where some people have being very good at.i think these process can be more interest than the money you can make. secondly, you say that the slow speed you make a money, all things have a special developement ratio, the slow or the fast, the mylot com is very slow, only just this kind,i think the mylot want you train your patient to do some things, not discouragous,not depression, going on doing the fixed thing,through this style of thing,i think that your tempation can be change to strong willing to do something,and at last, you can get the good result, i though,have not a lot of post, but i will go on this site, and share with the other interest and sorrow, neverless,i could not help the people who are in sad mood or the people who are very needed for help, i can do my best with my power,i can tell the other side of the thing and make them see the more side of the thing having,the thing has not been the bad side,i can make them get the open and clear on knowledge of some things,then, they are happy, i am also happy, this is thing that i am ready to do.some thing is not only all money,if you have such idea,you could have seen nothing,and your life ,i think that the single color is not interest and not attract to your attention and your power.

I've been here for considerable time here and what I feel is this site is not meant for people who have earning as their primary aim. For me, I am enjoying here sharing my points, and in a way I am gaining from it, so whether it be money or wisdom, I am not at loss!!
And besides writing, I am earning as well, not quick though but well and enough!!

If your intent on MyLot is to make a living, you are wasting your time. If you want to learn and help others, MyLot can be very lucrative in that aspect. If you want to get yourself known to others, you have come to the right place. My wife and I are both on MyLot, and we enjoy interacting with all of our friends. We have actually met some of them. You could be one of them if you wanted to be, but I will not ask you to. You will have to ask me. MyLot is a social networking site, which pays you a little bit for your participation, but it is incidental to the real reason for our being here.

hi
yeah if u r here only to earn quick bucks then mylot is not the right place for u-but if u love socialising, making friends and participating in discussions, etc besides earning few cents as bonus-i think in that case one shud stick with mylot.if u really want to earn here best way is to make as many active referrals as possible. also it depends on the quantity(and perhaps quality) of your post when it comes to earning. i rememeber that i just spent few hours and posted 6-7 really lenghty posts and earned about 30 cents. there have been times when i have spent lot of time, posted some 17-18 responses, but have earned only 16-17 cents.
