What is a quality content?

I lose many cents too but never mind. As long as someone learnt something new that is so rewarding too!

Oh I thought he meant I earnt with my participation, not directly from admin Thinking about it though, if we all follow what myLot suggests then we all get our two cents back from myLot - and much, much more too if we are diligent and patient and work at understanding how things work.

I have re-read your topic and I have one doubt: ' I thought that a quality content is when there are many responses to it......And still I don't get more than for a regular reply or a post which has a single response.' We do not earn anything for the responses that others post on our started topics - they earn for them. We earn for what we post therefore you will earn for commenting back to those responses. If a discussions has 10 responses and another has 100, unless the starter comments on them, their earnings will be the same and very small.

Thanks Youless for your insight. You always have such high quality opinions and thanks for sharing them. Of course, a longer response will more likely contain actual substance or 'meat on the bones', as they say in America. And, a longer response as you mentioned is likely to be more relevant to all members. Some people say that you can give a short response and still make it quality, but I don't really think so. At least, not me. For me, it takes many words. And, the more words that I type, the more I am able to fully explain my reasoning or justify my stance on an issue. While I don't have advice for others on what constitutes 'quality' when it comes to posting responses or discussions, my own advice to myself is fairly simple. Just find a discussion that sparks your interest and write from the heart. When you see a discussion that inspires you, then the words will flow from your heart and end up on the page. If you feel truly invested into a discussion, then you will easily find the words to say. Also, as far as quality goes when a member starts a discussion, I would try to introduce a topic that others might like to discuss. I'm not known for my short responses or short discussions. I like to foster conversation cause I like to talk. I can't imagine a world where I couldn't talk or type and converse with other people. It's just part of me.

It is not only the responses that make a discussion. It is the COMMENTS that further the topic and turn it into a discussion that count too and those can be short and concise and straight to the point andmake much more sense than a post that rambles on and on. There is nowhere in the FAQs that myLot explain the defination of 'quality' and nowhere either where they state how many lines are needed to count towards earnings.

When this question is asked by a user who has been here for quite a while and is obviously interested in what we have to say, I am inspired to go into things more in depth than I would on those discussions by users who joined the day before. Many of them don't even bother reading the responses and go about it their own way. I felt that here was a different situation and I hope I am right The only thing I see lacking are a few comments here and there which would bring in higher rewards for his efforts - but I am hoping he will try that out too

I am imagining yet another successful myLotter... He usually does a pretty good job at responding to all, and am hoping he really reads this entire discussion in its entirety as he then will gain and feel good about all his future posts.

Yes you are completly riht there like i am doing know the few extra comments everyday can really help with your earning especially if you can manage to find or start a debate with new members coming and older members coming back to argue some more.I did do this once and we earned quite a bit of money as long as you stay with in the guidelines mylot dont have a problem.

I think you are absolutely right katie! MyLot is a site for discussions and is completely different from all the other types of forums/paid-to-post/question and answer sites and if we can help them keep it that way too then we will continue to be rewarded for years (decades even?) to come!

YEHi think the same mylot want to be differant from all them sites that you can get answers off like wikipedia they want to stand out and pay there members so they will try there best not to go donw that route and to keep paying there members for there participation and efforts.

I am with you on that, Suggar. I just feel a little more diversity is needed. I do draw a line at talking to a dog though! Why is everyone so serious? A little laughter makes you feel good too.

Yes, you are right, little change would come really good. I'm bit annoyed because of all Christmas discussions, so i'm waiting some new air around to come and the spirit to change. So many topics about gifts, meals, celebrations Like Grinch i'm getting little sick of it Everything, which is too much, is getting annoying.

Hello Petersum, we all are different people with different understand about "interesting" and "not interesting", may be that's why some people feel touched by some topics and don't feel touched by other topics. I, by myself, love to talk about my daily life, because i have no one to share my real emotions every day and when i come here i feel more than good when i write about something usual and normal.
