Dear friends I am a newbie on mylot. I accidentally came across mylot and immediately fallen in love with the website. I think its a great effort on part of mylot by engaging people in some serious and good discussion and rewarding them financially too. As I told you I am a newbie, I wish to learn as fast as I can and therefore wish to get some help from experienced users on how to use mylot. For the benefits of others and myself I am documenting my doubte in the form of question below: 1) What I need to do to make the discussion seen to as many people possible and get response. Since yesterday I have started 3 discussion and have got only 4 responses for them. 2) When I start a discussion mylot ask me to supply a tag. I am supplying one of my own. Can I supply the existing tag if yes how and where to find them and will they help in increaing my visibility ? 3) How much responses/discussions/replies should be enough in a day to earn a decent amount on mylot? 4) does mylot pays for every response/replies/discussion you post? If yes when you start seeing your earning on mylot, for all the discussion that I have posted I have not seen any earning for myself 5)How can I check if my respnse is rated and what rating ? To some of the responses that were given ratings I just see Rated! but how can I see if its +/-/! your help is greatly appreciated, thanks to everybody and thanks to mylot for their wonderful effort

I have been a member for over 2months now, and honestly there is nothing you cna do to get yout topicsa seen by more other than add up to 10 tags. There are not any preset tags that mylot provides. You create your own tags pertaining to your topic. I have been told by many that you should respond to about 100 discussions a day, but I have found lately it is not about the quantity it is about the quality. You will get paid for every response you make. How much you get depends on the quality of your response. If you leave 1 line answers you will only get .01 but if leave 4 sentences or more you can receieve .03 or more. As far asratings most people will tell you that they gave you a + or a - rating. I dont know of a way yet to tell how many ratings you have received for your discussions. I really hope this helps you.

I think as you I believe that to place a goal for the day of answers it helps the person to keep a steady profit here in the Mylot. When plus you it writes plus you can earn, we cannot only forget that what valley more is when its reply it is chosen as the best one of the topic. I believe that when this happens you it gains 10 cents for an only reply.

Hi, Sharon613 here, I started mylot about a couple of months ago and I just got to $10. I read when I first came on board that you don't get the first $10, I forgot the reason for this and when you do reach your ten dollar point I think the checks go out to you at the 15th of the month. With the tags, I wasn't using them at first, I was skipping them, now I use them which are located at the very top of the page after I post my responses. That's about all information I could give you.

First of all, welcome to Mylot and good luck earning and making friends!! If you want lots of replies to your discussions, be sure to pick topics that will interest people. There are lots of new topics started everyday here on mylot so it is very competative to get yours seen, just make sure it is interesting and will catch peoples attention and don't be discouraged if you don't get tons of replies on every topic. You have to supply your own new topics for every discussion you start and reply to. It helps to add lots of tags when you start a discussion, it will help people find it when they search topics. I would think doing about fifty replies/discussions would be good, that's roughly a dollar a day, but if you find you can do more, that is even better. For a while I did 100 a day at that was great, but sometimes time just doesn't permit. You get paid for each good discussion and respone you give. Short one word answers don't count. Referrals do help though. Earnings are updated every morning and will appear on the left had side of your screen. Good luck and have fun!!

wow, you are new to myLot but you already act and write as a professional :). I'll answer you to all your questions! 1) Try to always do interesting discussions, that none already did, because more people will be interested in replying. I've done a discussion on Cold Fusion...and I received many replies...because it's very much interesting! 2) Supply only correct tags, connected to discussion. If you don't have ideas about a correct tag, skip tags. Anyway I think that tags let's you earn nothing :p 3) On my experience, I've seen that I can earn up to 20 cent per message if it's very long. If it's short...you earn from 1 cents to 5 or 10. I usually try to do 50 messages per day, but not short questions or answers! 4) You should begin to see your earning the day after you post messages. There is a counter on how much often your earnings are updated. myLot pays you for every replies you do, for every discussions you make. If you reply in your discussion, you will not be payed and counter will not go up! 5) You can only see "rated" only if you rated someone's messages. You can't check if someone rated your messages...sorry! Try to always do interesting posts or others will rate you negative and your message will let you earn very less! The last advice: don't cut & paste things from wikipedia or (the worst thing) from other people on myLot, because you will earn nothing...and you could be banned from myLot community! I hope this can help! Have an Happy 2007!

I can give answers to your questions - 1- Whenever someone replies to your question, add a comment to his reply, this way, more people will get to know about your discussion 2- Tags are simply for the benefit of searching. You can either add them or not add them. It is completely up to you. 3- I think that 35-40 quality responses earn 1 dollar 4- Mylot pays for every post you make. Earnings are updated daily. So it may take some time for them to update for you 5- You can check about your quality responses by going to your profile. Any more questions??? Just PM me.

Actually MyLot doesn't pay for every comment that you make. MyLot only pays for quality posts. Don't think that you'll make anything for one or two word answers. Make sure that your posts have to do with the discussion. Don't copy and paste other people's answers. All of these might mean that you won't get paid. MyLot has a strict no copy rule - you can get your account deleted for this and will forfeit all of your earnings. I would really encourage you to check out MyLot Guidelines!

My dear friend, welcome to mylot! I think there will be many responses on this discussions! I have read the responses some friends posted, and I think they are reasonable. I also recommend you to search the simillar topics in mylot because everyone has this kind of questions when he come here for the first time. So do I! I have been here for about two weeks. I find mylot pay us about 1 cent for one response we give. But I think it may increase when you give more high quality responses. Sometimes I find that they pay me 3-5 cents for one response I give which may because I have given some reasonable opinions and the ownner of the discussion has rated my response. So try to seek some topics you are interested in, and give an careful response, then you will get more earnings. First of all, enjoy mylot. If you come here just for money,then you will feel busy and tired. If you come here for information and making friends, you will enjoy mylot! By the way, try to make more friends, because the first person to post a response to our discussions usually is one of our friends. I usually review the discussions my friends started, and give an response to them. Good luck to you! Have a good day!
