Surprises never stop to amaze me, especially here on MyLot. I have been away for almost a year and I stopped by today. I was amazed to see the nice sum of money in my account. Everyone knows on MyLot your discussions still earn money long after they are written. Personally I never thought that people would go back over a year to read my discussion and respond to them. Even today I saw someone respond to a discussion that is over a year old. There are so many new discussions on the site daily I didn’t think anyone had the time to search through all the old discussion and respond to them. Lucky me I guess that I hit pay dirt today when I came to this site. Have fun and remember to interact with everyone. It pays off in the end.

If you did not delete your posts and you tagged them, you should earn some over time.

Yes I knew this one. I was just surprised that so many people went so far back to read them. That is all.

@poehere Some posts appear at the right side of the page saying that we might want to read them too (if they are tagged).

@marguicha I build websites and know how import tagging is. I guess that is what makes my post interesting and still showing up on the site.

Tell you the truth I have no idea. I was surprised to see this today.

I get comments on my old discussions quite a bit. I think newbies find them and respond. Also, I have commented on the YOU MIGHT ALSO LIKE ones in the right hand column on occasion too. So, it is a great site to keep earning on.

@celticeagle Yes this one is hard to do at time. You have to see how they are before adding them. I like to read interesting discussions.

Yes, you are right on that one. I was sort of surprised to see how much I had earned in the year I was away. Glad they post older stuff on the side of new posts to give people a chance to read them if they were missed.

@LeaPea2417 Anyhow, it is nice to see the old people and read a few posts today. I will see if I have a few minutes to spare in the next day or so and come back again. Until then have fun and will try and stop by again soon.

Thank you so much. Not a lot of time these days to sit on a computer and answer posts or comments. I always figured if I was to work on this site I needed the time to respond to people. Therefore, I have been off the site for a long time because so much is happening here that I would rather do other things right now.

Some of my 'old' posts come up in the sidebars and attract readers' attention in that way. Good to see you back again.

I am glad for you. I bet it was a surprise when you saw you had a nice sum and people were still interested in what you had to say. Are you staying this time or going away again and coming back to check?

Right now I am rather busy. We have a very large organic garden we started in January. The garden is doing great and people are coming from around the island buying food. Plus I own my own business and I have many clients who depend on me. For right now I work in the morning at the garden, arrive home in the early afternoon and start working for my clients. This takes up a lot of my time. Plus there are still some of my online clients who send me request for artices about data recovery and other technical things. I still write for them too. So to tell you the truth this all depends on how busy I am and if I can come here now and then to spend a little time.

Yes that is a nice thing if you still earn money here when you are not active. It is nicer how it seems to add up even faster the more active you are in here. I love being able to interact with so many diverse type of people here.

You are so right on this one. I just came back after a long period of time and sort of more active, but not like I was in the past.

That is great you still earned enough after being gone a year. I noticed when I'm oflline a few days I come back and still earned even when I didn't do anything. Glad you to see you stopped in and hope to hear more from you soon.

@poehere well it was still good seeing you. I don't always have time to be here either but i do try. It gives me something to do on the side with the crazy busy life.

Yes it was fun to stop in today. Maybe I will have a bit of free time now and then to visit again. Not sure how much time I can spend on here. Will see what happens in the near future.

I get a lot of suggested posts on the side that are several months to a year old. That's great that people are still commenting on your posts, and you earn money without even trying! I haven't been so lucky with my absences, but then I don't post very much. I come here to have fun, so it serves that purpose.

That is the only reason I am here. To have fun and fill my time when I am working on computers for my clients.

That's nice. You had some earnings despite being away for almost a year. I tried to be out from here for months and the earnings didn't move at all.lol

That is how this site works. If you tag your posts and they are interesting, they will appear in the sidebar next to other related posts. So choose your tags carefully and you can still earn on your older posts.

Yes, some days they really add up and others not so much.

I don't think that members comb through old lists of discussions in order to find an interesting one. Haven't you noticed that old discussions are shown in the right margin of the screen whenever you're active on myLot? Occasionally, they attract attention.

@poehere I don't think that this is a special honour you can be proud of. It looks more like an automatic rotating system to me.
@poehere (15123)

@MALUSE I never said it was. I just basically stated it surprised me that some of mine ended up there. It is all done on tags and how you tag your posts that get you on that side of the page. I knew this a long time ago because I build websites and tags are the most important part in search engines and how people find your work. So the person's tag on their post matched mine and they put them up on the side of the page as related posts to the one that they were reading. I understand this is no great honor to have this done it is basically how the system associates your tags with the post tags that are new.

Yes I have noticed this and I was just surprised that some of mine made it to the site of the screen and people actually read them. It is good that they do this and it makes it nice if you have missed reading a few things here.

Glad to see you're back. Occasionally someone will comment on, or like, something that I wrote so long ago that I had forgotten I wrote it.

Looks like you have tagged it well. I am going to try and come a bit in the morning before leaving to go work in the organic garden. Maybe in the afternoon I can stop by when I am working on my client's computers.

Welcome back! I remember you. I am glad that you stop by here. Now the minimum payout has changed to five dollars and perhaps you already reached it when you were not here

Yes, it has been some time that I have been gone. I always knew that what ever I wrote in the past would still earn me a few pennies now and then. Just a little surprised at how many pennies it did earn me.

Tag all of your posts and they will show up with other post that have similar tags on them. That is how you can keep on earning when you are away from this site.
