I am just wondering how much time you spend posting on myLot per day? I normally spend about 2 hours during the day and about another 3 hours at night. However, those hours are not really full time on myLot. The actual time that I allocated for my lot is only about 30% of that. Therefore, I would love to hear from you on your myLot posting habits. It would be great if you could relate that to your earnings so that I could use that as the yardsticks. Thanks!

I spend about 8 hours on mylot everyday. It is like my working hours on this site. I have decided that i will be on this site about 4 hours during the day and 4 hours for the night so i can still have some times for the other site in between and can rest my mind for sometime. I have test this way for some times and find that by doing this i can earn much better then before when i am doing straight 8 hours. But like others do, i also use more time to read compare than posting here. What i did is i will start my posting time at night as my work hours start - I stat when my earning updated means that this is a new day to the server but my time is night at my place. I took 4 hours doing works on the site and just go to bed. I will wake up the next day and start my works for the same day for the server time but with a new day for me. By doing this, i can be sure that my mind is fresh while doing works on mylot. I will continue doing works for about 4 hours and after that i will stop. Take some rest before the server update my earning and start my works circle again. In that 8 hours i will post about 50 post which can consider quality and manage to earn about 1$ per day for the server time with 2 days working for my time. For the time being i think it's enough for me to earn this much per day. I will try to do more in future to earn more money from here.

You are another one of the people that I know who spend long hours on myLot. I am glad that you get paid according to the effort that you have put in. That should be the way. Thanks for sharing.

I think overall I spend one hour a day on my lot. I mostly like to read the discussions in detail and if they are interesting I'll post a response. However, I think I do more reading than posting and that is why I am not making any money on mylot.

I fully aggree with naty's comment. It is not the money but it is the fun we get in reading what other s have said. It is very interesting and also time passing. Shouldn't become addict.About an hour is good to enjoy.keep enjoying.!!!

I actually spent a lot of time reading the postings too thus my own posting for a period of 2 to 3 hours is only a few. It is fun to read the stuffs that get posted here.

You are right. At the end of the day the fun factor always outweigh the money factor. Thanks for sharing your views.

I spend about 30 minutes a day on myLot. My earnings used to be around 10 cents a day. I respond to about 5 discussions a day.

No. I do not want to become an addict to myLot. So, I restrict myself to around that target.

Unlike a lot of folks, I don't really have a regular "schedule" or anything for myLot. It depends on what I've got going on, work-wise. For instance, I'm in the middle of several time-consuming projects right now so my time for posting here has to be severely cut back. I do log in every day and hope to find some discussions of interest right away. If I have to spend a lot of time looking for topics that I feel I can contribute to in a positive way, I start to feel pressed for time and may log out. On average though, I might look in for anywhere from 30-60 minutes in the morning and perhaps another 30 or so in the evening right now. I love posting here and would like to get back to doing more... hopefully sooner than later! :)

For about 30 to 60 minutes a day, you already have 1009 postings shown on your stats there. That is not little by my standard. Hope to see more of you here. Thanks for sharing.

Just like you I only spend a few hours in mylot and probably posting 3-5 responses per day. There is one topic that i have read where he spent 10 hours in mylot and respond to at least 100 discussions. His responds are not just one liner but paragraphs consisting of 4 to 5 sentences. Though he complained about backache after that one time session, but I know that he had earned a lot of points from mylot on that day.

10 hours! That person must be lucky or what that he or she can spend those long hours in front of a PC. He or she probably do not need to work or he or she practically earn his or her living on the net. Thanks for the information.

I have to agree with you on the fun part and addictive parts. I am having the same "disease" too. 3 to 4 hours during the weekdays, that sounds like half a day of your work time. Not bad! Thanks for the information.

Time is the favorite reason why people can't spend too much time on myLot. Thanks for sharing your experience.

I am sorry to hear that you do not have internet connection at home. Maybe one fine day you would be able to have that then you would be able to participate actively here. Wish you all the best!

You are addicted to myLot. I hope it doesn't affect your study. You should finish up your assignments before going to myLot okay. Anyway, thanks for sharing your experience.

It depends on my mood,time and the topics I like to read and make respond to. Sometime I spend only half an hour and more offen around 3 hours. My longest record was 10 hours when I had have to clear all the response notified to my email.

I wonder how it feels to be on myLot for 10 hours. I think I will get a cramp or something ha ha. I am getting more and more comments to respond now so I might be having backlogs soon. Thanks for sharing your views.

Maybe you should get a new PC so that you do not have to share with your husband who is playing his game. The game normally would take hours before he would stop for a break. Thanks for the information.

Well, as a student I am sure you have lots of free time on your hand during the semester break. Then you can spend a lot of time on myLot. 6 hours is quite a long time. Thanks for sharing.

i usually spend about an hour a day and sometimes one and a half hours... i can't go beyond that as i am a working woman and i only be here for fun... i don't really care about the earning... i treat it as a bonus...

I am not ere full time too. I have a full time job and I guess whatever that I earn here would be a bonus as well. The fun part is its biggest attraction, I think.

migrane headaches hurt - migrane headaches can stop your day and your whole life. you lay in bed not wanting to move the eyeballs.
i spend about 3 hours a day posting away at mylot, dormcheck, and hyipheat. that is if i don't have a migraine headache then i'm flat on my back wishing it didn't hurt to move my head or eyeballs. i do a lot of posting while doing other things that require waiting. posting sites are good way to pass that time. at this moment, i'm writing this post, drawing a pic to upload, and writing a dvd. multitasking is lovely...

Thanks for sharing. I have two blogs to update and therefore, I am multitasking too. I also post to myLot while waiting for a program that I am testing to run. So, we are about the same ya. :)

Well, I joined mylot 3 days back and spend atmost 2hours a day starting discussions , reading and responding to the discussions which are recent, hot and of my interests. i'm making 15-20 cents daily.I hope I get more in future and yes there's a limit for uploading photos so you can upload only limited photos and you get paid for that. Happy Mylotting.. !! cheers ..!!!
