Hi Yunion, Welcome to mylot. If you want to earn money here, there is a few step that you can do 1. Tasks Doing tasks is the easiest way to reach the payout. There are a lot of task available and the most lucrative one is the articles writing tasks. Some of they pay $4 per tasks. 2. Posting. If you can't do the tasks, just participate in the discussions. You will be paid for every posts you made whether starting a discussion, responding to others discussions or commenting to your discussions response or others responses on others discussions. But the most important thing in making a posts is make sure your posts have quality and length. If you started a discussion, like this, you will earn the same amount of money even if your discussion receive one response or hundred responses. But you can earn more by giving a comment on the responses,like you did now. 3. Referrals You can also earn from your referrals. You earn 25% bonus from their earnings. So, if you have family members and/or friends that want to join mylot, ask the to join under your referrals. But make sure they are active here. Otherwise it would not give you anything. Since you are new here, it is advisable to read the guidelines and FAQs. http://www.mylot.com/o/guidelines.aspx http://www.mylot.com/o/faq.aspx It is important to read it to avoid any kind of guidelines violations. If you violate the guidelines your post would be deleted and at some point you might be banned here. Giving a response to the discussion that violated a guidelines also waste your time. That discussions would be deleted and your earnings from there would be gone too. There are a lot of discussions that violated the guidelines and you have to make a wise decision. Good luck. Welcome again and have a pleasant journey here.

Hi, Yunion164! I signed up in mylot last August and one of our co-mylotters that all you needed to do is to participate here in mylot by making your own discussion, respond to other people's discussion, add friends here in mylot and ask for you friend's e-mail addresses and give them invitations. Try doing some tasks that pays you some money and upon completion of the tasks, you earn what was indicated on completing it. The more discussions you make and responds to, the more tasks you completed the more you earn...plus you will have ideas on how to earn outside mylot as there are other sites, other members can refer you to. My earnings as of the moment is $1.18 because I can only had a just to visit the internet 2x a week before and just last week because of typhoon in our country, power interruption, lost internet connection and busted computer, I was not able to visit mylot for almost 4 days so I missed out a lot. The earnings may not what you expected but it is very fun as I am gaining more friends here! Make your love for discussions, forums, answering questions or even your love of money work for you...The key is to participate and win a lot of friends first then real earnings follow! Happy mylotting and God bless!

You just need to participate in various topics or else you urself can start a topic..as much you will participate you will earn according to that...they give you one point per one response and yes the quality of your response also matters a lot..try to elaborate your responses as much you can..They give us star rating according to our quality of responses..Other way to earn money is Tasks..you can complete the specific task and get the rewards... I hope you get the idea now.. Happy mylotting!!!!!

You earn by being active and participating in discussions. If you aren't actie, then you don't earn. Everything you do in here should be quality, as mylot uses that to figure our earnings. You can start discussions, post responses to discussions or post comments. They all should be as descriptive as you can make them, stay with teh topci at hand, and they should be more than just a few words or one line posts. It is also in your best interest to post comments to teh responses you receive. You should avoid psting just thank you for your response as you won't get paid for those kind of comments. Just be active and participate in discusssions, and you will see your earnings grow. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.
