How to use the myLot search as your default search engine

Great tip there!

I followed your instructions using Chrome and then tested it and indeed it is now my default search. I did my first search using it and... a reward of 11 cents!

I would share it with you if I could, but I can't... so I won't

Well not always. The rewards are random but having it as my default seaarch will certainly make many more opportunities available!

Oh no, no phishing! It is myLot. I have only seen it once and I only got the warning one once too, many months ago.

Thank you! (: Yeah I just got one of 12 cents. :D Maybe they always give a reward when you do this, but I'm not sure. And I wouldn't accept you to share it with me, I'm happy enough with helping people (: -Milamber

Excellent post! I don't know how often they update the FAQ's (not often from what I gather), but I will recommend this be added as a supplement to them next time they are updated.

The instructions may need checking and revision before they are published. In the Firefox details, for example, it seems that the "%s" should be left off because it appears at the beginning of every search made using the address bar. I haven't tested the instructions for Chrome yet. Instructions for adding MyLot to the Toolbar Search facility might also be usefully included. I use that far more than I use the address bar for searching and it also allows me to select from a number of search engines.

Wow! Thank you very much, Milamber! =) This is so much easier by setting myLot as my default search engine. I do use search engines very often, and it is quite tedious for me to repeat opening myLot page to use the search engines. Now i can just type whatever issues i would like to search on my URL, and it will automatically uses myLot to search for me since i have set myLot website as my default search engine. Thanks a ton! Have a great day myLotting too.

I hope you get a some advice from this user and that one by one all the eventualities are addressed. Admin said in an earlier response that this will be added to the FAQs and it will be great if it is available for all browsers and operating systems

Hello Milamber, It was a collaborative work -- http://www.mylot.com/w/discussions/2478344.aspx --, and you missed a point. I wrote this string for web searches, but I use it today for discussions. I think that other users must also be interested by this magic formula : http://search.mylot.com/search.aspx?t=discussions&k=%s

The link has to been put in keyword.URL in about:config But I am pleased to have been not clear

. I never read about a 19 cents reward at myLot

I have wrote it for Firefox, but it seems to work without a change with Chrome. Another miracle, like your 19 cents reward ?

if I use the Mylot search here on this site I'll also get rewarded, right ? The FAQ says: Currently the only way to receive a myLot Reward is while using the new-and-improved myLot Search. link to FAQ: http://www.mylot.com/o/faq/faq24.aspx#1 (as has been previously posted)

But does it connect it to your account? Meaning if i use this formula as the search engine link? will it attach it to my mylot username?
