Hi everyone! I am a new Mylot member. I just isgned up for an account sometime last week. Since that time, I have done a couple of tasks and have responded to quite a number of discussions. My earnings are still $0.00 I would like to know how exactly you can earn from this site? Is it by responding to discussions, by accomplishing tasks, or by STARTING discussions like this one? I'm a little confused and overwhelmed. I keep referring to the FAQ and earnings tab but I can't find the answer to my question. Please help? More power to all of us here and happy earnings!

Hi, Newbie and welcome to mylot, the best advice I can give if you want to earn is be active, active, active, that means make topics and respond until your hearts content activity plays a big role in earnings here, and people are usually very friendly and helpful here too Also its helpful to upload fun pics too but make sure that there relevant to the topics and not copyrighted I could tell you so much more but its a sensitive topic and we are not allowed to post too much on the subject have fun and stay active believe me you'll be glad you joined.

"we are not allowed to post too much on the subject" huh? Since when are we not allowed to? Did you see how much information is in the previous responses?

We cannot discuss anything that relates to the aglorithm but if a user asks how to use myLot then we can explain. If we give the wrong information then our posts will be deleted.

Well the last time I posted a response on the subject of earning in mylot it got deleted, so I'm much more careful about the subject matter, and what I post apparently we cant discuss our earrings and we have to be careful of what we post on the subject of earning here. In the past I posted tips just a few little tips on how to earn in mylot all honest rule abiding tips and they were quickly removed.

Hi ddaguno! And thank you so much for the warm welcome! You're very kind. I am already finding out how nice people here are. I never imagined it to be this active and helpful a community. Could it be because of the incentives? Maybe so. But it's an active, helpful and fun community nevertheless right? I'm wondering now who "mysd" is. She seems popular. :D Thanks again and yes...I hope and I know I will enjoy my time here. :)

Hi there and a warm welcome to myLot! I looked at your activity and it appears to all be todays activity. Earnings update every 24 hours, but not your hours myLot hours. Therefore if you look at the clock below it is 10: 18pm, myLot server time. When it says 00:00 it will be 12midnight. Therefore anything until then updates tomorrow anytime between 7am - 10am. Anything after the myLot midnight will update for Tuesday. Earnings here are limitless and they solely depend on your participation. We cannot compare my participation with yours as our quality may differ. When you start discussion keep in mind that you only earn from them when you comment back to the responders with Quality content. Saying things like thank you for the response is not allowed and is not quality. Responding to other members discussions with quality content will also earn you. You can use the myLot search bar and you can be randomly rewarded for a few extra cents. Enjoy the site, remember the clock below when considering earnings and allow the earnings to flow.

As for the tasks I cannot see when you did those and if they were last week check your task submitted tab to see if they are still pending approval.

Thank you for all your help and inputs. I was right in thinking about starting a discussion on this one. So let me get this straight by summarizing what you just wrote. I will earn when I do the following: When I start a discussion AND comment back to responders. Simple "Thank You"s do not count. Replies have to be quality replies. Posting quality responses to other people's discussions. Cool! Then I'm doing good so far. I just need to be more patient....and of course, more participative. I aim to be as hardworking as you obviously are!

hardworkinggurl i'm a new member too and i really liked to read your first response. Other thing i would like to know is how can you earn money from images, because i don't see any folder with that name, only the folder with name is photos...and inthereit doesn't mention any earnings possibilities.

Welcome to Mylot, luigy96! And thank you for placing this particular response of yours here. At least this way, we can consolidate all newbies concerns into just 1 discussion. Such a valid concern, I never even stopped to think about earning from photos yet. I too will benefit from your question! We're lucky that hardworkinggurl was available to answer this one. Thanks hardworkinggurl! The links were especially helpful.

Welcome to myLot and hope you enjoy your time here. From someone who has been here over 4 1/2 yrs, this is a Great place to be, and one where you can learn a lot about different things, and meet some wonderful people. The main thing New people like you need to remember, it is not about the money here. It is about having Fun. Find discussions you are interested in responding back too meeting others, and starting New discussions as time permits. I have found out that the more active you can be in a day here the better your earnings will be. Also it is always quality over quantity. When responding back to someone keep to the topic at hand, and try and respond back with at least 4 lines not repeating yourself. It does take time, but if you focus on having fun good things will happen.

You need to participate in all possible ways. Creating discussions that ar meaningful and attract much interest, responding on discussions with long, quality posts and searching can all get you some earnings. A typical amount of earnings daily for me is 25-35 cents. I am sure soon you will see the earnings increase, but you really need to work much for it! Good luck!

hello mia, welcome. everyone has been telling you what to do. and it is how it is. keep responding to discussions that you find interesting. every response that you make you get points and as it grows you will find you will have money on the pot, so to say. also, the first response that you make for every discussion is the one that is going to earn. the rest, hindi na. it would just be bonding with the people here. and thats how you get known and find friends. but if it is your discussion, you get to earn more if you answer them all. have a nice day. ann

Really valuable input, tigeraunt! Thanks for getting that to my attention. I already know about replying to every response and comment if it is a discussion that I myself started. But I didn't know the bit about getting credited for only the first response I make on other people's discussions. How cool! But still, I think I will continue to respond as long as the discussion is still relevant. Appreciate all the help you offered here! :)

Thanks starrose_ara! I'm slowly but surely getting the hang of things here. And it's really nice to know that members are being very helpful. Yes, they earn in the process. But out of the many discussions out there, you, and the others chose to spend your time discussing here. At least, that's how I see it. Aaaww...I think I want to cry! sniff! :D

As what the veterans told me continue interacting and you will be surprise on your earnings. If you observe those veterans I mention they make post like a forum thread. I followed the way they make and I was really surprise. You can also use the myLot search engine to add up your earnings. Participate to different discussions and don't stop communicating with your myLot friends through your won post or response to their post.
