As far as I know, facebook already has 500+ million users in it, sharing photos, posting worthless things, expressing their lavish and sometimes exaggerated emotions and many more. However, if you try to think again, mylot for me would be something with sense. Way better than interacting with people with silly ideas. Considering mylot has only 247,858 members as of this post. Maybe, we should try to promote mylot way better than facebook. :)

Only few people really understands how Mylot works and for those that believe in this site, we know that we are in a better site. Those people who are active in Facebook either do not know about other means of enjoying online activities other than that or play online games. And also, some would think that they need to be paid more to be able to maintain their account in other sites. It just goes to show that members from Mylot does not stick around because they earn something from it but also they have realized that more than the earnings, they enjoy taking part in the discussions and in a way build friendship among members by sharing their thoughts, views or opinions.

Promoting mylot way better than facebook is a good idea. But in order to do that, you would have to present mylot as being just as hip and trendy. facebook has a much more streamlined and overall better aesthetic, and mylot doesnt even come close. Not only that, but functionality. Facebook is a lot more intuitive and user friendly. Mylot would have to have a serious makeover as well as become something that people want to use.

It's hard to explain but somehow people have to stumble upon mylot a lot of times, if I try to get referrals or tell a friend about it, a lot of the time they think I just want to make referrals and that's it.
When facebook first came out, I was there but wasn't really sure exactly how it worked and what it was. About the time I figured it out, I found mylot and I just use both without really promoting either one.

That's indeed a good observation kenshin, yet sad to say that only few people are doing and thinking the way you think. It's because people have different point of view and passions as well as likes. For those people like you; you've found interest in doing mylot than doing some facebook thing. If mylot will become more popular a lot of people will surely like it.

yes, Mylot is really more than facebook. I agree that it's members should promote it since it's not just interaction here but it's members are earning real money which I think is it's advantage over facebook.

MyLot is better than FB for the smart people like us. But FB is the best for those who uncreative, copycats, and no originality. I am promoting MyLot almost everyday but still no response. Well, if that suits them. So be it!

Facebook can be used for a lot of things... positive and negative... i used it to communicate with students, friends, and family... and with student projects... i can hardly do that here in mylot... because for me... this site is more of a venue for exchange of ideas...
Other people would not be able to appreciate the beauty that is mylot... that is why out of the 200 + thousand members... not more that half are active...

That would be an excellent idea. I think I will try having a customize shirt to promote mylot here in our locality.

hi kenshin I think a lot of mylot is for the we ll to do while my lot is for the people w ho have to work for a living, ordinary mylotters who come when they can and chat and care and help each other. Face book is more fluff with out a whole lot of content. Here people share real problems and we try to help and try to solve them or give advice.I have an account in Facebook but do not g o there very often.I do think my lot has a lot more sense than Face book and also Mylot is
monitored better too. One reason more are not o
n mylot is that a lot of people are lazy they want to make money but not make discussions or write responses as they wail oh thats so tiring.Bosh. I love mylot and its not tiring to me. It does make greater sense than Facebook

Facebook is really different from myLot, but as to whether myLot is more than just Facebook, I'm not really sure of that. I mean, there are also silly discussions here as well. People here also post about their private lives - their problems, their happiness, what they did for the day, stuff like that. I guess what I'm just saying is it's hard to compare myLot with Facebook since I feel the two have different platforms altogether. Just my opinion though.

i think i can say that mylot is better than facebook in my humble opinion
but we should understand the concept of mylot of course is a bit different than facebook concept
that`s why make mylot isn`t popular like facebok
the problem is when mylot is popular and get much member, can mylot administrator pay all member when they are active??

I like what you had said that myLot has more sense.
Yeah, we should promote myLot more. We should get referrals and explain what myLot really is.
I would like to suggest that if we get referrals, we guide and explain to them what is this site all about. MyLot is a discussion site and we earn through quality and descriptive responsing

There are loads of people using facebook for a lot of different reasons. Mylot and facebook are two different sites that has two different usage or purpose. As for me I uses facebook to update friends and to connect with them. Facebook is a very useful social network site when it comes with connecting people.
With mylot, I like it here too co's even though I don't know my mylots friends here, they are helpful and generous with their opinions. Here you only not earn from commenting or participating on discussions it also has expanded your views because of the views of others that you read from here.
Happy mylotting to you my friend!
