As the title says, I'm new to myLot and don't have a clue how it all works! Hoping some kind soul will take pity on me and explain it all?

Participation is the main thing to earning. Comments and responses are very important, even more so than posts because this site is run on interaction.

Hello and welcome - it's a great site. If you read the Guidelines (under the 'help' button on your profile page) that will give you a good idea. You won't earn a lot but it's fun. Read and comment on other people's posts and they will most likely come back to yours. Good luck.

@mymoneycottage I was on Bubblews too, and lots of us are here. The main difference here is that it's more of a discussion site, and you don't earn from anything you write yourself. You only earn from people's reaction to you, their responses on your posts, replies to your comments and their 'likes'. So you don't earn anything directly from the post you have written here, but you will earn from this comment I am writing to you.

Great, thank you, I'll go and have a look there now. I was a member of bubblews many moons ago although I had a different username back then. Still, I recognise many of the names on here and look forward to catching up.

@mymoneycottage This site is not "corrupt," as Bubblews was. We're paid for responses to our posts and comments. Interact, have fun, and you will be rewarded.

Welcome to myLot It will take you a while to know that you earn with what others respond or comment on your activity. Faster you know about it the better for you.

Welcome to myLot! You'll find a great community here with people from all over the world. Just start discussions and respond to discussions with topics that interest you. As long as you follow the guidelines, which aren't really strict, you'll be fine. I find that myLot is a good way to wind down and get things off your mind, have nice conversation, or get advice.

You've figured it out. You can write posts about whatever you want here. You also can read other's posts and respond to them if you like.

Welcome. As others have pointed out below, the guidelines are a big help. Otherwise it's just a matter of reading, writing and interacting with others. This is a friendly place.

Write when the mood is there. Leave lots of thoughtful comments on others' posts. You will make friends from around the world and make a few pennies a day in the process.

Interact with others. Like posts, comment on them and post 1-3x a week for starters. Welcome and happy holidays!

Great to see another UK person on here If you've any questions about the site feel free to message me, I've been a member on and off for years. If I don't know the answer to something I guarantee I'll know someone who does PS...some do the "you respond to me I respond to you thing here"...I do not do that. If I respond to you it is because I'm interested in what you have written, there is no expectation on my part for you to respond to one of my discussions...I'd actually prefer it if you didn't do that I rarely write anything and when I do if it doesn't interest you don't respond just because I responded to you...I'd prefer responses from people interested in the topic Anyway...welcome to mylot it really is a great site to be a member of
