Isn't it weird? When you want to post a discussion, and you hope that everone will reply your discussion to get the best earnings, that might be a little tricky after you stay with mylot for while. Like most people said, quality is the core. I believe it and truly believe it. But sometimes, you also need to choose the hours when there will be more people willing to response your discussion.
From my past experience, the best hour to post discussion and expect higher rate of return response is around 7:00 P.M. to 10:00 P.M. When the traffic is the highest, and you will get more responses during that hour.
During the afternoon time is the worst. If you post the discussion around 2:00 p.m. to 6:00 P.M. not many people are going to reply.
So, what will be the best hour to post on your area?

i think in the evening because you cna have enough time t write a decent numer of posts and so even to answer correctly to the discussions!!i guess in the morning or afternoon it would be quite impossible considering that everyone have their own occupation!!

absolutely agree with you. We have to consider others schedule and time.

I guess, as you mentioned, evening time best suits to most of mylotters. Since we are at the other side of globe, we need to adjust our timings so that we can get more responses from our fellow friends around the globe.

I generally like to "test the waters" a bit before posting my discussions. I won't just hop on mylot and post a discussion right away, i wait until i have had some time to browse around and see if there seems to be quite a bit of activity going on. I have yet to nail down the "prime times" yes, and as someone else pointed out, there are people here from all over the glode, so differnt people are here at differnt times.
I am constantly checking the "new discussions" tab and seeing what is coming about, and how many new discussions re bieng started at times. I find i can get maximum responses if it isn't TOO busy, and it isn't TOO slow. It's like the fairy tale of goldilocks and the three bears Lol
i sometimes find if i post a new discussion at a time where there are TONS of new discussions being posted, it get buried very fast, and most people don't do a lot of digging, they just go throughthe first few pages.
yet if i post a discussion when there doesn't seem to be a lot of people around, it just kind sits there, gathering dust and i get disapointed as i am here, eagerly awaiting the first responses to come filtering in so i can comment back and discuss with everyone.
So, really, i just play it by ear, and hope for the best!

any time is the best, thread starter
its global...when Asia is asleep, Europe and America is active and when Europe and America are asleep, Asia is active
therefore, any time is the best hour to post, regardless of which country you are right now !

Well, I think getting more responses from other members really depend on how interesting your discussion. But the best hour to post is during night time here in Philippines (same timeslot as what you have mentioned). Then, I will simply wait for some responses from anybody and expecting more responses...

Quality is definitely most important but timing is needed too. I usually don't post discussions on mylot when I'm online at 3 a.m. but who knows, there's people all around the world. i usually post questions around 3-6 p.m. That seems to be the best time for me. If I'm not on mylot then I would just post anytime

I post my response, comments and discussion on mylot, in the morning. Because It is not crowded enough and easy to load discussions or response...Time is 5:oo am in the philippines.
I think that is the best hour to post in the midnight also because it's is good to load discussion it is faster enough...How about you?

Here in my country Indonesia, i think the best hours for doing mylot is on the afternoon and midnight. Since i don't have much time for doing mylot in the midnight because i must have to sleep, so i switch my night time for mylot on the evening. But sometimes it's very lagging on the evening here. I'm not sure if whether the lagging is on mylot traffic or on my ISP traffic. Have a nice day and happy mylotting.

since mylot has a global membership i guess every time is best time. time is not the only criteria for getting a response. the number of comments you get depends upon interests and choice. i personally have posted comments on discussions 6 months old. i guess patience is the key word. good luck
