Hi, Since 2009 that I have joined my lot. I have been continuously looking for jobs that I can do at home or at least earn money for a living. I have tried a lot.. like neobux, clicksense and others that was about ptc. I also tried megatypers but all it does is give you cents per submitted stuff. I wanted to learn how to do transcription but I can find a homebased company that will teach you how to do it. Most of the company would just give you the task once hired.... How about you guys... aside from mylot.com how your seen other earning sites that gives you more than just a few cents?

Just because they pay badly doesn't mean they're scams: a scam is where you are cheated out of your pay, generally. More than a few cents? Plenty of sites: any rev share, any tasking site, any gig site... pretty much anything that isn't at the dregs end of the market will pay better than cents.

The sites I am a member of are not scam sites, and I earn from they yes they pay in cents, but I get paid and that is what matters to me,you must be talking about those home base jobs, that promise you thousands of dollars, yes those sites are scam sites, you need to stay away from them because, they ask you for money, to join their site.

Not all places online are scams. There are ways to make money online and yes you do have to pay into some of them on occasion, but they do pan out. Project payday is a good one. There's also one called pearl treasure chest as well, I forget the web address. You can also become a chacha guide, and that would definetley make you money.

Hi Jaizhi, There is no short cut when it comes to working from home. I myself is an active writer that works full time doing freelance article writing for blog posts, website content, reviews and blurbs for products. The more I work, the more I earn. Some days I even get 3 -4 assignments to write, with each assignment paying me around $16 - $40. However, I didn't arrive at this comfortable situation in a blink of an eye. I started to search for online work opportunities from as early as the year of 2000. I can still remember how I used to stay up until 2.00 a.m. or 3.00 a.m. just for the sake of earning $2 day, and that includes posting 100 posts a day here. I've written a 750+ page novel with the hope that I could monetize it. But, no.. I didn't manage to profit even a cent from it. So friend, the thing here is don't ever give up. The time for you to shine will come. Keep searching for online opportunities on the internet, and that means you really need to pull up your sleeves and sit down for at least 2 hours a day looking for them. Good luck buddy. Hope you are having a good day.

It is true that you never get much here or anywhere. I know that there are some who are luckier but I am not that. I only earn little online so I have to give more time to my offline work.

Hi there ! I have in mind that those sites who promised to pay big amounts are the sites so risky for scam and those sites who pays cents are the legitimate ones. True and legal money means the hard way not an easy way just like in Mylot it pays cents but then if we only work hard and give it more focused ,small earnings will become rise and rise making it big. Better prefer here , it sure , it pays and our income depends on how we work here.

not all Home Based Jobs are SCAM.. I have an online job. but maybe this is different from what you have experienced. because I have a direct contact to my employer. I accept task directly to him. I also tried neobux and clixsense. I receive payment from clixsense even if it is only a cent.

Its really hard to earn money now a days. Like you i'm also looking for site or home based that will give cents in doing their assign jobs. Hope someone will help us find a trusted sign and will not only give cents. Mylot is quite good i'm taking advantage of learning how to use English language and freely post on what is on my mind. Earnings is not a big deal to me when it comes to Mylot, i've been a members of Mylot for almost 6 years, now and the options of others here helps me a lot to solve some of my problems in life. And aside from that, i also love reading and sharing ideas.

I have the same feeling like urs. I tried a lot of websites as well, but it seems like no websites can give u the real money, a lot of unsatisfied conditions make me feel hopeless in this job. I wonder which website can be the one who really give u the chance to make money at home as well. Wait for mylotters answers.

hi jaizhi, Yes, it's very difficult to get online jobs that pay well and consistently. Firstly you will have to spend a lot of time to search and filter out those genuine ones from scams which unfortunately outnumber the genuine ones. Then you have to try out these genuine sites and see for yourself whether they are worth your time and effort. For some jobs you probably need more than time as you'll require special skills or talent like writing, programming, organisation, analysis etc. I guess only from your own experience you'll be able to discover what's good for you. Wish you all the best in your search. Have a good day.

Hello Jaizhi, Online earning seems to be easy for ones who are not involved in it but those who are involved know how difficult it is. I have been on the sites for around 2 years but the earnings is not at all satisfactory but thanks God I have an offline job to live on but yes someone can earn better through the sites too if he/she do proper planning and do things which he/she may be skilled in just to try things which people do is not the way you can earn. A bit of analysis is required to increase your earnings.

Hi friend. It's good to work online even though we earned a little but still happy to receive a single penny rather than receiving nothing from it. I'm also a member of the online site that you mentioned above. I'm also a little bit busy these days because I've found new other legit sites and I'm currently working on it. Thanks for sharing and have a great day...

Hi jaizhi! Not all home-based jobs are scam. There are still legitimate sites that pay online users like us, although for a minimal amount, like online writing sites. You just have to be careful and read reviews about a particular site before joining them, to make sure that's legitimate.

That is true only to a certain degree, if you are ask to pay for doing /working online first, chances are it is a scam instead of a genuine job hiring. Apart from mylot, which in the sense of the word, is not actually a home based job, except a social discussion forum. One thing you need to remember is that always exercise caution whenever you want to work in home base online job, there is not many out there are not operated by scammers.

I'm the in the same boat you're in Jaizhi. I've had little luck with online jobs. I actually JUST started using myLot. I'm crossing my fingers and hoping that it works out for me.
