Why Can't myLot.com Be More Popular Than facebook.com

really, you don't have facebook or even friendster? something unbelievable for one person who is always online. "Mylot is for people who want to make their online time productive and profitable while Facebook users are those who just want to socialize and enjoy their time online." - seems to me that mylot is the place for the poor who wants to earn while facebook is for the rich who wants to just spend their money.v

that's just a joke actually, my friend, that's why i put the ROFL emoticon. lol i agree with you, mylot is for people who wants to do something productive out of their online activities. i really love mylot for here we are not wasting time and money, we earn friends and we learn a lot from each one of us.

Yes I have no Facebook and No friendster account either! Those social sites do not attract me at all. I believe they are only for those people young and old who have lots of extra time but not me. Each minute of my life counts and I should profit from it material or otherwise. Instead of engaging in online sites, I would rather engage in sweet talk with my husband!Ha!ha!ha! I believe mylot is not for poor people either. I've seen so many young people who are only depending on their parents for money who are wasting too much time in Facebook. My two nieces who are only depending their studies from my support do have Facebook accounts and would go to our house just to avail of internet for free. Ha!ha!ha! Mylotters are not all poor people dear! How can a poor have computer, laptop and broadband connection? It is for people who wants to do something productive out of their online activities. It is for thinking and wiser people who want to share their ideas, learn ideas from others and gain friends and earn some penny while doing so! So there your are my dear friend!

you are right dory. working with mylot is more of a pressure to us, especially that we are not true english speaking people, so we have to translate everything. and the most difficult part of it, is when you think you already have translated well, you think you have completely and clearly translated what we have in mind, and after posting it, there will have misreading or misunderstanding by other people. but you know, i more like here than any other writing jobs online. mylot is not strict with our grammar and spellings. you can see with some posts of our friends from different parts of asia, sometimes we can't fully understand what they try to say in there discussions but still, they earn lots of responses. i have FB for almost a year now, but only in the first month that i became addicted. gladly, i found my way back here. but i frequently visit FB too, so I am kinda decided to go back there more frequently to promote our beloved myLot.

you mean with that number of referrals you have, no one is active?

so you would like to say that mylot has more adult or mature members than of those sites?

we can also keep in touch with our friends here, we have private messages and we chat through our discussions and when we chat we are being paid.

.. well at least we get to talk some interesting things if not necessarily serious but yes we get to learn many things discussing over matters, and as for facebook or other social networking sites i would say it is best for staying in touch with some of the friends and chat but this site rocks.

I think that's a possibility too; not many people know about myLot still..

well, that's actually what i am trying to get here, why mylot is not popular as popular as facebook, or friendster, etc. why do they like those sites more, even if we have told them what mylot is all about.

could be. but we have more members coming from non-english speaking countries, like india and the philippines.

Facebook is more popular because it is really dedicated in social networking. The pictures the comments no rules the games. Its kind of a chill out place where you could just have fun and interact. Mylot for me is for those that really would love to hear what the other people has to say about it. You would usually see paragraphs here. :)

we express more of our feelings with words.

that could be the one that mylot is better than those social networking sites, we are not so populated so we have less problems, it's not too complicated to work with. we have lots of good friends, we are having good time sharing each others thoughts and help from each other too.

but at least there is no pressure in terms of what we will be discussing, and the grammar or something.

as simple as that?

i guess, that is one great way to promote mylot. you see, a year ago or so, i have created a discussion about mylot mobile version. i was into mobile browsing before and i can't view mylot with my phone's built-in or native browser properly. the only way to view mylot though still not that fine with a phone is to install a mobile browser like opera mini.

i think it`s simple.maybe one things must be done by mylot is make application or technology so we can browse mylot even from our cell phone.it can make many people become mylot members

see i am promoting mylot at facebook. and so as frienster. and so as blogs. oh, maybe i have just a little audience from those sites.

i know that. i just can't help to think why they can't see mylot as more worthy to spend their time instead. but i will still try. how about you, have you got your links posted at facebook or you blogs?

You need patience. Mylot will not overtake facebook overnight . Currently there are more than 300 million facebook users compare to mylot 200,000 (most are inactive ). But we should not really worry too much about it. Although, it's sad sometimes to think that a lot of people are not able to share what we have experienced here on mylot not because they don't want to but because they don't have an idea that a site like mylot exists.

mylot is really great and both of us could be a witness to our own success. at first, i never really thought i could reach this far here. i mean, i am just second degree english speaking person, like most of us here. it's kinda difficult to communicate well in english. well, if i can take them all here?

@lipstick2009 i could not agree with you that mylot is becoming boring. with your number of posts, you still have to explore over 2 million discussions already posted. you could never get bored if you will just search your interests. we could probably get tired answering and responding to lots of discussions but boring, never. search for your interest. if you want to relax after getting tired, we also have fun stuff with quizzes and games. @joannaleed i agree, and there are really times that i run out of english words. but that's the thrill comes in, when we start typing we start thinking. and in the long run, we type a lot. sometimes, i couldn't imagine myself, being a technical man, writing long english. well, maybe, we can't compare the two, but all that i wish, is for mylot to at least be as popular as facebook. as in, you go places and people will talk about mylot. something like that.

i think we don't have to be that good with html as we already have banners here that we can use to promote mylot. you can select from available promotional banners here, http://www.mylot.com/nr/earnings_wb.aspx

in facebook, we can still write notes that you can say anything and everything, right? and we can still discuss things through commenting on photos, status, etc. i don't say it's wrong or a kind of something is missing or something, it's just that i wish we are more, more than number of how much we are here now. mylot is still growing in population, but of course, if you can get them here, the more the merrier.

Home sweet Home...welcome back

thanks zandi. and i hope to be more active than before.

i was hooked for sometimes with facebook and twitter but i found them to be a time killers only, i mean they just eat up my time when i should be mylotting. i am glad that i found my way back home, home to mylot.

You said it well.. I can't wait too. For when the time comes and myLot starts to become popular..then we'll have more new friends to make, more discussions to answer and whatnot..

more friends, more FUN, more FUNds as mysdianait had said.

well, i also think that one day, mylot will be as popular as those sites. even though it cannot surpass the popularity, at least have more population. so far, we can see that it is growing day after day.

True but hopefully the bad apples will go and play somewhere else!

yeah dawn, i agree with you, this little group have a lot of friendly and helpful members. though really have a few who are not.

that's one thing i have been thinking of. but even i have great local media personalities in my facebook friends list, no one ever ask me what mylot is, considering i often post links to my discussions there.

could be. but how come there are also more indonesians like you and filipinos like me who loves mylot despite being lack in english knowledge. i am one that hesitates to join mylot, but i practice and try to improve my english communication skills.

on here, we can improve our english, and so as our pocket. could it be that facebook is so populated that page loading is slow?

on facebook just now opening page is very slow compared to be here. Here we can develop English language and learn a lot about many things and in addition we also generate revenue.

you are really here for the earnings alone? i don't think more people will agree that it is because of the earnings that they are staying with mylot.

ok nocturn and mandy, but why is it that more people enjoy those sites than mylot, when they is earnings here and those sites only waste our time and money but nothing to earn?

I think that we all like to think we may make money from our discussions, so I agree with Nocturn. I mean on facebook people waste hours of time playing the games, and sending messages, often to virtual strangers, whereas it is meant to be for friends. Facebook doesn't pay a dime, so I see the time spent on there as not as profitable, as on here. I personally dislike the social sites, and prefer mylot. Also the traffic is good here if you have a website. I like the mylot theory we all work and make the Site explode and we get rewarded at the same time as cghatting to some people that we would never have talked to.
