myLot - Make Money Posting Questions

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. You can also subscribe to Time To Budget by Email.Thanks for visiting!

myLot is an interesting way to make money. I don’t entirely understand it but it is an easy way to earn some money if you do it right. You basically post questions and discussion topics and get paid for the posts you make as well as the posts others make on your post. Confussing? Well, it was a little for me but now that they have improved the layout of the site it’s a little less confussing.

You earn money for posting but as far as I can tell posting a lot doesn’t neccessarily make you more money. I have made a total of $10 in 3 weeks. Ok yes I know that is not much but keep listening.  Out of the $10 only $3.65 is what I have made from my own posts and responses. $6.68 is from my referrals. One of my referrals is a posting machine and she has generated most of the earnings.  So for the $6.50 or so I didn’t have to do anything.

I have found out on a number of posts where people are earning $6 for 300 posts. I am not completely sure why their earnings are so low  but I have a few guesses. For one there are a lot of people that post using misspelled words. I am not sure if that really has anything to do with it or not but I guessing it might not pick up keywords if they are not spelled correctly. Another things is you need to respond to the post not to another comment. The main thing is that you are posting quality content, not just one answer posts.

They have recently added some new posting guildlines:

DO’s
  • Please take any warnings you get from the myLot staff seriously.
  • Help us out and report trolls, flame wars, and troublemakers by sending a private message to myLot.
  • Help out when you can. The myLot staff tries to monitor the site constantly, but we also need your eyes and ears to catch problems when they arise and report abusive behavior.
  • Make sure you search for existing topics before starting new discussions.
  • Please make sure you give your best effort to respond with quality responses. If you don’t know how to respond to a discussion, go on to the next one. Answers like “I don’t know” or “I don’t care” don’t help anyone and will be removed.
  • Make sure to post useful links in discussions when necessary to provide authoritative guidance.
  • Please use myLot messages to chat back and forth with your myLot friends. Make plans for the weekend, schedule a time to meet for fun, or just talk about what happened today at work! If you would like to know more about a certain myLot member, request them as a friend.
  • Make sure you ask for clarifications on discussion topics or responses when necessary or help other users to get their point across if they are not able. We like to think of ourselves as one big happy family.
  • Feel free to contact us if you would like to advertise on myLot.
  • Post in English, unfortunately the staff at myLot is not bilingual.
  • Please let the myLot staff know if you are having any issues, by sending us a private message.
  • Feel free to express your happiness with the myLot community. We love hearing how much you like myLot.

 

Now for the DON’Ts
  • Post comments in threads for the purpose of drawing attention to another thread on a different subject.
  • Make multiple posts on the same subject for the purpose of getting attention paid to your issue.
  • Post copyrighted articles please link to them. DON’T post copyrighted photos at all.
  • Respond to a discussion until you’ve read all of the responses.
  • Post “Me Too!” messages; add something of substance to the conversation.
  • Start a new discussion unless you have something of substance to say.
  • Start discussions asking for one word answers like “Yes or No”.
  • Thank everyone that responds or comments on your discussion. This will not increase your earnings.
  • Start meaningless discussions or give meaningless responses to try and boost your rating. Discussions like “What’s your age” will be deleted as well as short responses like “ok” or “no”.
  • Start game and poll type discussions. For example, discussions like “How old are you” or “Let’s see how high we can count, I’ll start with one”.
  • Post any links promoting other affiliate programs or that do not pertain to the discussion. Posting the same link over and over or posting links that have no relevance to the discussion is not allowed.
  • Post discussions directed at one person such as “user1 what did you do today?” or “user2 where are you?”
  • Post discussions soliciting a response for a response for example “+” rating for a response. These are against our terms and will be deleted.
  • Post to “flame” other users! Being mean to others is just not fun. Anything derogatory that is directed at a myLot user is strictly prohibited. Just be nice and have fun!
  • Request donations, post charity requests, petitions for signatures, chain letters or letters relating to pyramid schemes, advertising or solicitations for funds, or mass mailings.
  • Post for commercial or advertising purposes, including classified ads in the discussion area.
  • Post anything that discloses your personal information or others’ personal information. We do not disclose it to anyone for good reason.
  • Post similar or identical postings. Stealing posts from other users or posting the same thing over and over again will not help your myLot earnings. Multiple identical postings, even if legitimate, may be considered spam.
  • Post symbols or languages other than English unless you are asking how to translate a word or a phrase.
  • Post discussions, responses or comments criticizing members for bad/broken English or bad spelling. Everyone is welcome at myLot, we have users from all around the world and they are welcome regardless of their proficiency with the English Language.
  • Post anything that inaccurately explains the myLot earnings algorithm. Our myLot mathematicians have worked long and hard on our elaborate payment system and we wouldn’t want any of our users to make them feel inadequate by breaking their algorithm in minutes.
  • Use all-caps or excessive punctuation.
