Which gives you better earning, posting a new discussion or responding to it?

Or shall we do both to get the best? that's it, you can earn better if you combine both ways, but it is also possible to earn more while doing only either one of it, it's possible to earn more with your own discussion only IF all of your discussions is really interesting and getting so many responses and you comment back to those responses with quality post and you were able to further the discussions, meaning you have a longer conversation with other members in your discussion. It is also possible to earn more even without starting you own discussions if you can respond with quality post to many discussions of other members and same thing again if you can initiate a longer conversation with the discussion creator and you can also comment to other members response and initiate a conversation with that member. But I think combining both ways is still the best way if you are trying to earn more in mylot.

The toughest question on Mylot: What is the magic formula for earning here. My observations on the subject are as follows. Starting a good discussion and replying intelligently to everyone who comments on it will bring in the most money. That part is simple math. It's easy to write replies that are directed to you for discussions you created. There are a couple of things have to do here before that works well for you. For starters you need to befriend a lot of Mylotters who participate intelligently in discussions before posting new discussions will do you much good. I posted discussions here years ago on a long forgotten account that would have been excellent except I had few friends and got almost no responses. To remedy that you have to participate enthusiastically and intelligently in other people's discussions and befriend them. You have to maintain that as well. Why would anyone want to participate in your discussions if you don't participate in theirs? Getting to it in a round about way but my conclusion is that you have to do both to maximize your experience here. Hmm... I suspect that was what the people who created the site intended.

oh, i think you should do both! he he of course if you make a lot of discussions and you get responses and answer all the responses yourself... then that will already be a few more posts... then i think with that, you will have additional income to your account. =)

After reading all the discussions here, I now feel guilty about the things I have missed to do to maximize my participation here. Hmmm....time to up my game.

It is hard to really know which one earns more than the other. I usually try to do both of them. I think posting and responding to those who comments on your discussions is also very important.

We shall 'do both to get the best". :) Mylot pays us for our overall participation in this forum. This goes without saying that creating a discussion and responding to a discussion has an equivalent amount of earning opportunity. Of course, how much you will get for participating all boils down to the quality of your post. :D

it depends to your post and discussion, it didnt varies as they dont have exact amount on how much they will pay us on our each post. though just make it longer and with good content or just have fun and enjoy the discussion and the moany post you have he more earnings you will get. just avoid a one liner post hugh im not sure if they will count it for you to earn it really depends.

good day yanzalong, with reference to your query, i am doing both. as i am effectively doing responses and good quality discussion. hence, in this way, there will be more chances of earnings since you are working on both sides of the fence. thus, as they say, if you are working that much, then you will be rewarded much also. in every work, there is a corresponding reward. cheers.

I noticed the same. About 20 or more posts after each others. It's seldom about their own opinion. They also don't respond if you ask them something. I don't think it matters if you post or just answering. It's about quality after all. Also very annoying each time the same subject comming up, or they post the same subject 3 times after each other but just with an other title. Responding on that is mostly useless since it will be deleted. If it's only about making money, there is no way of discussing something that keeps you busy, it's better not to post at all, just answering.

In my experience, it is a consolidated activity that is probably taken into account in determining the earnings. Some of my better day earnings were when I managed to do everything: post a discussion and respond to majority of comments, post comments on as many discussions as possible and also other activities like uploading images etc.

I am sorry I may not have a proper knowledge for that. firstly I don't like to make discussion. secondly I only join discussion that has been already there. As far as I can remember I only made one discussion and I think it was good enough for newbie like me. however, I do know that making discussion and especially if we make it livelier, we can earn more from it. but yeah, as I said, I prefer to join to discussions and hop in to other people's responses instead of making my own discussions. well it may be due to my laziness or may because what I have been trying to ask, somebody else has already posted it. :) anyway, even though I do think and I do only responding, doing both synergistic, will do make a better earning.

Hii yanzalong...:) According to me, responding to some discussions will earn more. Since it is simple to give your opinion to the problem that is given. Posting discussions need more time to think and sometimes we just have no idea what to share. But doing both is the best way to earn :)

It is better to be in discussion so that we can make clear to the problem being issued.

That is a good question, if you do get more for posting, over responding, that would seem right. If one is busy posting great content, then that one's ability, and available time would be limited when it comes to responding. I am new to MyLot, so I shall see, I suppose. Thanks all.

hi yanzalong really I make a little more when I make a quality discussion and comment back to all those who responded to my discussion.some make forty or fifty in one day but make very little as they are too laZy to comment back to the responses and too there is still a stupid and wrong rumor that he gets paid for the responses he g ets. not so. we who responded each get paid for our response, he only gets paid if he is courteous enough to comment back and make the discussion actually a discussion. Just posting a discussion or fifty makes just pennies so you have to comment back on all responses so you earn.remember this you type you earn, I type I earn. simple but true.

In my opinion, it is really difficult to point out what gives more earning for me. But I guess, and it is a purely personal experience, that starting a discussion would give me more bucks than just responding. I am not that good in starting discussions, so I kind of start them too less - nothing for days together. But the discussions I have started, sometimes starts a series of responses and comments from friends and me. It becomes a cycle and there's a huge list of answers. That is a real good earning then. It is like a two-way process and like chatting. That should give more benefit to all those who are participating.

I prefer to respond. I find there are plenty of topics to respond to around here. I haven't really found the need to start a discussion. Even if I wanted to I can't really think of a great topic that would attract many people... so I generally stick to responding. The last time I posted a discussion was more than half a year ago, actually. But then again I was off MyLot during that time anyways.

make discussions on myLot. Not a hypocrite, I am also pursuing earnings on myLot. But for me, I tried to make the discussion of quality, is also trying to respond to a discussion that I can respond. Whatever we do in myLot, we'll get earnings.

Honestly, I don't know which would give me the best potential earning, but I would definitely suggest you to do both though. If your discussion without a single comment on it, it just not give you much earning as to respond to other people's discussions. So, I would definitely do both, and hopefully get me the best earning per day.

I'm not here for the money, I am here to place discussions and to discuss and once in a while you get a nice reward. That's how I see it. It's not worth it to be here just for the earnings, that'd take too long.
