Hi, and welcome to myLot. To earn money you need to post quality topics and responses. Always try to respond to topics using 3-4 lines in your response and never answer with just one word as you will not be paid for these. The number after your name is the points you receive for either posting a topic or responding to topics. The more responses the more points you receive. You will get a star when you have reached 100 points and the colour depends on how members rate you. Try to get other members to join you list of friends as these will help you to earn by responding to your topics and you might like to get some referrals as you will earn more, based on what they earn. Best of luck and I hope you will have many enjoyable hours here on myLot.

Welcome newbie welcome!! glad to see that you can join us here at mylot. to be honest with you. the best way to learn how to work mylot is by reading the rules from mylot. i am going to give you a quick rundown. 1. the numbers after your name are how many questions and answers you have posted. 2. the nummbers in the star is your rating. you are rated by the quailty of your answers. from 1 to 10. you are rated after you have posted over 100. 3. make sure you rated everyone who answers you post. that is located in the answer box of everyone that answers you. it is the plus and minus you will see next to mine. 4. i would say true to post at least 5-10 questions a day, and answer at least 20-30 questions from others a day. 5. do your best to get other people to sign up to mylot using your referral link that really helps to make you money! so there you go welcome

All very good replies here for you. Thers a lot of opportunities here if you have time. I love this site dearly. I say add a lot of friends & when you reply or start a discussion make sure that they're not short or simple. Think them through. They don't have to be very long lonst thoughtful informative interesting or educational. Tag all posts etc that helps your discussions show up on more areas of myLot. There was plenty of great advice given here. Now go have a blast here. Happy postings.
