Did you start 8 discussions
or did you post 8 questions which received some responses?
You do NOT earn for the responses that others posts on your topic.
If you want to earn then you should go back and comment on those responses and further the topic to turn it into a discussion. That is what we earn for here, not for posting questions and leaving it at that.
It is never too late to go and comment so if you want to see more earnings tomorrow you knoe what to do now
Welcome to myLot!

Hello, Diana. Done the obvious, after going to the profile page. Hope it does some good, but not overly optimistic.

Okay, I've taken the time to look at your discussions and responses and I can see exactly why you haven't earned much. You may not like my answers, but this is why.
On the discussions that you started, you have not returned to comment on any of your responses. Whatever you may have been told about earning on MyLot, you earn for what you type. You do not earn for starting discussions - the people who respond to your discussions earn if they make a quality response.
This leads neatly into why your responses have earned very little. Most of your responses are a sentence or two, and add nothing to the discussion. It's no good coming out with plaitudes and expecting to earn from them. Your response should add something to the discussion, and you can't do that in one or two sentences.
So, my advice is: when you start a discussion, go back, read the responses and comment back, so the people who respond can see that you are managing the discussion. When you respond to a discussion, take the time to formulate a response that addresses the topic and adds to the discussion, giving other members the opportunity to respond to your input and so extend the discussion.
You earn from what you type on MyLot, and it should be relevant to the topic. Read the guidelines to see what makes a good response or discussion, and then start over.

Hopefully the silence is due to them taking time off to read what has been saud here.
Good to see you Sandra!

Hello, Diana. Probably not, they'll now go somewhere else and say 'MyLot is a scam,' or something similar. Still, we try. Lovely to see you as well.

Hey drinylane,
You should read the faq.
You do not earn with quantity, but quality.
You should post expressing opinion, feeling, and with detail.
You should comment on your discussions, and others as well.
As I believe someone before me had mentioned, it would not hurt to do a few tasks.
Some of them are actually worthwhile to do.
Learn to enjoy myLot, because it will not be your main source of income.
Good luck, and I hope I have helped!
