I just got credited 14 cents today for using the search function!I used it the way I would use any other search engine.I was actually looking up some information and I found that the search results were impressive.The reward was a pleasant surprise in fact since I did not get any alert.However I suddenly noticed an increase in my balance and went and checked,and sure enough those 14 cents were listed under the 'rewards' category.I think these rewards are an amazing addition to this already amazing community!

Since the latest upgrade, many of us have received the rewards by using the search here on myLot.
There have been many discussions about it too.

I have been using this feature a little bit from time to time since it has been implimented, but so far nothing has come from it. Maybe we have to use it a lot to earn rewards from it. But personally I have always been one to use the search from time to time here, so even if I do not get rewarded anytime from it, it is a great way to find more interesting things to look at, etc. for sure.

I have earned several Rewards through searching. The rewards (and their amounts) seem to be awarded on a random basis. Every now and again, when you are searching, a box pops up saying that you have earned a reward with a value of x cents. Mine have varied between 2 and 7, I believe.
These rewards are credited instantly to your account and appear in the 'Rewards' column in your Earnings details.

Be careful about using the Search function simply to gain rewards. It should be used in the way that you would use any search function: to find information that you actually want to know or use.
At the moment, it doesn't seem to work for searching the web but it searches for keywords in MyLot discussions quite well.

Try using the search function here normally as you would use any other search engine to look up anything that you need.I think if you use it in a constructive manner,they will reward you soon sometime.Yesterday I got a reward of 14 cents but I do not know how much the maximum amount of reward be.But I am really happy to have got the reward.

Yes definitely you ll earn money by using the mylot search engine. All you have to do is to use the search engine as if it was go0gle or whatever search engine you might use. It is important not to abuse the system otherwise you might receiving a warning, even your account might be deleted. I have been credited 14 cents today.

hi so far I have not earned anything,but maybe they do not pay all the time just for searches for information, but I read in the FAQ and Alice also said just use it as you would any other search engine, so I took her at her word, I have not used it on searchingfor discussions though. maybe worth a try.

I have used the search feature, but I have as yet to be credited for it. I might be using it worng or not searching for the right thing. Of course, maybe they credit them differently than our discussions. I hope to see sosmething in my rewards about it soon. I think I am using the feature right as I do see my username in the right hand corner at the top, and hope I would see the earnings change, or would be added when my earnings are updated, but nothing yet. I will just keep trying though, as I know that they do pay, as some have been paid by doing searches. Good luck to you and happy mylotting.
