Seriously speaking. Sometimes it is easy for me to earn whenever I enjoy earning. And honestly speaking, no site is more fun than MyLot, for me. I love to participate in discussions that interests me and create discussions that I think may encourage other MyLot users, with the same interest, to respond. There is also a but here. There are times that it seem like the discussions around doesn't seem to be good, I cannot participate at all while I feel like "I did nothing". Share your experience. What sites do you frequent and earn money while enjoying yourself? And is it easy for you to earn from them?

Hi Sinfulrose, I started with Mylot, but now with my passive income built up from article writing, I find that Mylot is not a good site for making money online. The income here comes from active participation. There is no passive component that allows us to earn even when we stop participating for a month or more. Article writing for passive income is better in this aspect. At least I can look forward to a few dollars when I go for a short trip. The articles are still making money even when I stop writing.

Hi Sinfulrose, actually you are far better than many writers who write for money. You just have to choose a niche that you are passionate about, the money will come. Right now, I write and post mainly in Expertscolumn. The writing part is always the easiest part, since you just have to write an article of at least 300 words. Getting traffic is the part that many new writers find it tough. The first 1000 page views usually takes a long time to build up. You have to send tweet or promote through Facebook, unless you are very good at seo techniques.

Internet traffic, huh... I don't know if I can be really good with internet traffic but I can learn that, I think. As long as the rules are already printed out and I can see them. lol Thanks for the complement, scheng1! I'll try to find my niche that involves computer+drawing+money making and after a few days maybe I can write something good...if I'm not being distracted by other things.

Look it is easy if you have something that you are good at. I am good at writing so that is what I do and how I make money. There are some sites that help you with all of that and more. You have to find something that you can do in order to make money online. This is a nice site you can use, but if you want more then you have to search and see what you can do. Good Luck to you and happy mylotting.

Well I use factoidz for my articles and I use Odesk to get most of the jobs there. I can do more than just write, so I have been doing a lot of things for clients from Odesk.

I don't like to go to many other sites. I only really "regularly" and with any kind of "gusto" earn from this site here. However I do know what you mean about not finding good content, or it being "all the same" here from time to time. It definitely makes it harder to earn and have fun. I try to concentrate on the fun part, and just enjoy myself.

Users really should enjoy here and not become glum. But we can't help but see many discussions that really depresses us. So we really have to look for the fun side of MyLot and those that interests us in order to be able to participate in every post actively.

Hello there! I am quite confused on what you have stated in here. You haven't mentioned other sites you have earned from. So, how much do you earn from mylot which you can say the biggest you have earned online? Well, I don't have other sites which I can earn rather than mylot. In here, I do get real payment in paypal. From other sites I have joined, it may take too many months before I get payments. So I sometimes don't get to them nowadays.

I was actually asking whether you found it easy to earn online. And as I have mentioned, also, I frequent MyLot because I am enjoying my stay here and because I am enjoying, I am actually earning quite easily here. I have never claimed that MyLot gives me my biggest earned income.

I agree with you at some point. However, I don't believe you can only get 1 cent per post, considering your star near your username and so on... There was this "what if" formula for MyLot that I found at some point in the net that gave me an idea that if I wish to earn more, I would have to post this certain number response and a certain number of discussions in a day. It's not actually the formula of MyLot earnings but at least it gave me an idea that if I wish to earn more, I would have to make quality post of this certain number in a day. It's a kind of my goal or motivation to keep me active, find a way to be active despite that the discussions around bore me. The tasks around MyLot, I admit, never interested me, so I get stuck in using the search bar whenever I need something to know about. And if I'm lucky, I get rewarded. Thanks for the share, annavi23 and Happy MyLotting!

I can say it can be easy if you are really participating a lot in discussions and tasks as well. There can be topics which keeps you uninterested and feels bored at times so there's possibilities that you can be lazy on posting anything, right? It depends on my mood also how will I interact and participate in discussions as well. There are times I find myself participating more on tasks than discussions itself. By doing tasks, I can earn easily than on discussions which I think makes me earn 1 cent per post or so.

So far, it is only myLot which enables me to earn and have fun (by answering question) as well. My another online earning sites are rather boring :p. And I found earning here is not that easy, since I need to give lots of time to earn $10 every month.. I wish I can being active 20 minutes only every day, and still earn the same amount.. :p

Earning a lot of money here is indeed not easy. But earning something for your activity is. I understand your feelings of wanting to earn more for little work. But that's life, my friend. It's like a game. You need a tactic or a plan. If it worked, you harvest what you've planted and live with satisfaction later--and if your plan contains it--you earn more for little work. This is what they call work smart. Happy MyLotting!

Yep, in order to earn great passive income, I need to give more extra efforts - which is I haven't done it yet.

Of course it is never easy to earn money online. As many online earning websites are scams. We have to work hard for those few earning websites. And the earning is not that much. Actually I regard it for fun as this earning can make a living for me. I love China

Thank you for your opinion, you less. It is indeed not easy to earn online if you mean earning in quantity. But if you enjoy what you're doing, the earning comes easily--but we have to face it, because a site is legit, the earning is really not that much. So it's good to know that you are regarding online earning as something for fun else you might be frustrated like some people I get to see around...

All it takes is hard work, I think. It is not as easy as I thought it was the beginning. Many people said blogging will give you money. But blogging requires your hard work, too. I've made three blogs in the hope that I can make money from them but so far I've made nothing yet.

I quit MYlOT for several months because I could not earn any money on here. But, on other sites I am on people were saying they were earning so I decided to give it another shot. I have only been back about a week so hopefully I can earn some money. If not I am gone for good. Do not feel I am doing any good staying here if I can not earn any money on here when I have other sites I do earn money.

I had only a little over a dollar and so I quit. When I went back to it a couple of weeks ago all of my money was gone. I did not realized that you lose all of your money if you are not on here. Also you mentioned using the search bar. What is the search bar and where is it. I have never used it.

I just found the search bar. So, do you earn money using the search bar?

I personally firmly believe that it is not at all easy for anyone to earn money online. As for myself, I am trying hard but find it too tough to earn money online. Besides mylot, I am working with few other sites like clixsense, neobux, ayuwage. I am also working with another site which seems very promising to me. If you are interested, I can send the link to you by pm.

It is easy for me to earn a very small amount of money online. My favorite sites to earn from are mylot, swagbucks and Fusion Cash. These are my favorite sites and the ones that I make most of my money from. I earn a little from several other sites as well. Between all my sites, I probably make about $50 a month but I have a p.t. job and that requires a lot of hours. If I were not working, I could probably make about $100 a month easily. With some work, I might be able to raise that to about $200 a month. But I prefer to have my p.t. job and not be dependent on my online earnings. I enjoy all my sites. I really like mylot. Sometimes there are many discussions which interest me enough to respond. Other times, very few or none at all. In order to respond I have to have an interest in the topic but also feel that I am contributing something. Same thing with discussions. I do not begin a discussion just to begin one. I feel like it must be of value and hope that it will interest other mylotters.

That's a very good share, bostonphil. Thanks! I too begin a discussion that I hope that will be of some value to the MyLot community and something that would interest MyLot users. What use would one have of a discussion that would not get any respondents at all, right?

Hi sinfulrose you are probably one of the most active here at the moment and I know what you mean about the quality of conversations to get involved in being low. Some of the most active with good quality do not seem to be as active now which is a shame. I don't use any other earning sites so if my activity decreases here I earn less.

It really is sad to not see those users who can really make a good discussion around. I miss them more especially when it's already getting boring around MyLot where only a few people can go online. It's the same for me too, I earn less if I participate less. But because I have a goal that I wish to reach, I try my best to be active as much as I can. It's a test to my ability to think as well as learn and earn.

No, it is not easy to earn money online for me. I do surveys and most of them kick me out because I don't qualify. I like My Lot but earning is very slow but I don't mind because it's interesting and I enjoy it.
• Davao, Philippines
19 Mar 12
That sounds just like me. Many survey sites won't even give me a single survey just because of my location. And much more for the reason that I don't qualify at all.

its not easy of course earning money if you're not interested...or be open minded for some several things that you think you cant make..babe.ITS ALL IN THE MINDSET.
• Davao, Philippines

I agree with what you mean. To earn big and to easily earn, you need the proper mindset...but also a plan--a very good one if you wish to earn money in the net.

Nope, Not really. mostly because of the scams that littered the net that I can constantly second guessing whether I should join or do the said task. It's very diffult to sift and sort which are the honest-to-goodness works dn simply scams that ask for money or trick you into joining them without any rewards or compensation. I do have online affiliations aside form Mylot but I don't consider them as my primary source of income. It takes a long time for me to actually earn a substantial sum of money from them but I am a patient person. also, It isn't really a hard work but at least, it is a better use of time rather than slouching on the couch or bed (activities which I am also fond of doing). Besides, I believe in the saying , easy come and easy go. however, at least, I know that earning small is easy but at least it is there for emergencies.
