Mylot: The best paid forum since 2005!

We received again a payout from myLot after not being that active because of taking care of our little baby boy since March 2009.
This time we just reached the payout limit of 10.00 $ by end of July. All you have to do is taking part in discussions which the members start or you can start your own discussion.

It's great when you can help other members with their problems or they help you when you ask them questions and in exchange you get paid for it!

Also interesting for Blog owners who write paid articles!

Since March 2009 you can also take part in Tasks. It is similar to Pay per Post, only that you don't have to publish it on your blog. You deliver the article directly to the Task owner in myLot and for around 4 paragraphs (16 to 20 lines) you can earn up to 4 $ (2 $ is the average price).

I think myLot is a much better earnings opportunity than working for some of the paid blog post companies which offer you mostly less money but more lengthy articles to write.

Referrals give you on top 25% of their earnings!

We give everyone who signs up under this referral link 50% cash-back of our 25%-referral earnings. You earn 10$ - we get 2.50 $, we transfer 1.25$ into your Paypal-Account!!

Scam? myLot reactivated our accounts today!!

Today my wife got an e-mail from myLot's mother company "Wasingertech.com".

There they wrote that they re-activate her account and if she made already a new account, she should cancel the new one and use only the old one.

In my case i didn't get an e-mail (yet?) but i could also log in in my account. My new account got automatically set inactive (and the earnings, too :-( ).

So far i don't know why we got set inactive for over 12 days and why after the re-activation our earnings for the whole month of January were set to Zero. I hope that we get again an answer to this question in the next days before we get the payout around 15th February 2009.

But so far i'm lucky that this case has now nearly a happy-end!

Which experiences do you have website that banned you and afterward they lift the ban again?

Scam? Banned in myLot with over 300 other members

On 27th of January i got banned together with my wife and some other 300 members.

Most of these members had multiple accounts or did just register to make troubles to other members like non-sense responses or discussions. And for some of them their only purpose is to rate other members negative so that their star rating will be lowered significantly.

For the members like my wife and me it's not clear what has been the background for our banning. There have been also other cases which don't share one internet connection. We share our connection with other house mates in Kuala Lumpur or with family members in Johor Bahru, but we have separate accounts, separate paypal-address and so on.

After sending myLot 2 e-mails regarding this issue, there hasn't been any answer yet. If you read their terms they also state that they can ban you for no reason or they don't have the need to investigate further why you have been getting banned.

They other possibility could be that we got banned because of the "abuse reports" which every member can do when they click on the "!" after each response/comment or discussion. Even in this case you can't defend yourself against members who don't write the truth.

In the end i registered newly and my wife doesn't take part anymore until it's clear what the problem of our accounts have been (if we get an answer at all).

I hope i will see you again in myLot, the best paying social forum in the Internet!

If you had the same problem like my wife an me, please leave a comment, so that we know more about the backgrounds about this banning which had a duration from one week.

Make quality responses and improve your earnings in myLot!


Your next step is to respond to discussions. Therefore you can click

1. on one of the interests on the top of their web page
   These are the topics which have been started as new discussions.
2. on your homepage and look there for discussions from your friends, today's top discussion, your discussion and so on
3. on the link discussion and search there through the provided links like new users, no response and so on.
   

TIP: When you click on one of these discussions, you should read the message below the title. Sometimes the title does not mean the same what the message inside describes.

TIP: Read the given responses, otherwise you'll write perhaps the same like someone else has already written.

By writing your response you should pay attention to a clear and easy understandable answer. This answer or your expression of an opinion should be around 4 - 5 lines. Don't expand your response with too many punctuation.... this is a DO NOT, too.

Experiment:

You can try different types of responses and then you can decide which one was most successful!

1. day: Write 80 responses/discussion with a length of one line

2. day: Write 20 responses/discussion with a length of four lines

3. day: Write 10 responses/discussion with a length of eight lines

Please tell me which of this techniques gave you more/the most money in a day. Just give me a comment here.


TIP: Make some paragraphs while writing, the message is easier to read and members might reply more often! Make it a habit!
You will experience it once when you get a response with more then 7 lines without any paragraphs. I get dizzy from reading such a long message :-)


Earnings are coming every 24 hours

You earn by using the described methods

1. starting discussions with a suitable picture and with a minimum of one response by someone (depending how much responses you get at the first day, around 1 - 10 cents)
   
2. by commenting the responses to your discussion (depending how long each comment will be, up to 2 cent per comment)
   
3. by responding to other member's discussions (depending how long your comment will be, up to 3 cent)

In the beginning you'll earn mostly between 1 and 2 cents for each discussion and response. The more experience you get, the more money you can earn.

Every 24 hours the earnings are released. You don't get them every time after you post a discussion, a response or a comment.

In the section "earnings" you can see at the bottom the time since when the earnings have been updated.

Just be patient until they show "23 hours" after that it may take one or two hours and you will see your earnings of the previous day.


The Bonus items

After 100 responses you will see your star in front of your nickname. It indicates which reputation you gained from the other members.

You gain a better reputation by

• responding to a friend's discussion or anybodies discussion
  
• starting a discussion and getting many response
  
• commenting on responses from your discussion.

The reputation is build from the + and - ratings the user give for your answer and your discussion.
Try to rate as many persons in your own discussion with a + because they take part in your discussion, add them as friends and give one of them a "best response".

After 200 responses you can use Smileys.

After 500 responses you are allowed to copy and paste and you get another bonus.
You can add pictures to your responses as well. That means you can earn additional money.

So be fast to reach these goals when you joined this web page to make money :-)

Get paid to post/write: Guide for MyLot -Part II-

Start discussions, make friends and earn money

The first thing you should do before starting a discussion or responding to discussion is

• read the FAQ of myLot (it's at the bottom of the web page)
• read the guidelines for discussion, photos and blog (especially the do not's!)
• read the terms again to understand which comments and responses will cause that they or your account (and earnings) could be deleted.

The second thing is if you want to post a discussion search at first in the top right corner for the topic you want to discuss.
If there is already a discussion going on and you post a similar one, your discussion could be deleted after some days/weeks. This will reduce your earnings (and the earnings from your participants).

Searching for similar discussions

The best search method is

1. Click on the search box on "discussion" and
2. then on full-text search
3. type in your topic
4. look when the last response was given to the topic
5. if it's really old (let's say one year) they might not delete your discussion
6. if it's less than some weeks, your discussion could be deleted!

Start your first discussion

1. In the top left corner click the link "new discussion" (next to your nickname)
2. Select the interest in which you want to place your discussion, be sure to post it in the correct one ;-)
   (behind the interest you can see the number of members who choose the same topic, the higher the number, the more members my take part in your discussion)
   
3. Select your title of the discussion.
   Don't use questions which can be answered just with Yes or No!
4. Write a message to your question, describe what you are looking for precisely.
5. Do not use around 4 to 5 lines or 5 - 10 sentences, write more than 8 lines if possible (doubles your earnings immediately!!)
   Quality is the key to earnings!
6. Add a picture that matches with your discussion. It gives you some more cents earnings.
   Look out for public domain images which you can find here :
   public domain pictures or pdphoto.org
   99% of them are free to use. Otherwise you could get problems with copyright protection and myLot because they have to delete your discussion!
7. Add tags (keywords) to your discussion so that other members and myLot can find the discussion easily.
   Your discussion title will also show up on the right side on other similar discussions with the same tags. So these members could possibly write a response to your discussion as well :-)
8. Submit your discussion, finished!

The first step is done.



Now satisfy the members who responded to your discussion

1. by adding them as your friend
   When they approve your friendship you can write them messages and take easily part in their discussions (like you read in the middle of Part I of my guide). Some of them will take part in your discussions as well.
   
   
2. by rating their response with the + or the - (mostly with the + :-) )
   Rate the discussions of others and their responses gives them a better reputation.
   You and the other members can see your own reputation when you achieve 100 responses (the number beside the nickname).
   Better reputation can lead to higher earnings in the future.
   
   
3. by writing a comment on their responses
   You earn money by commenting on your discussion because it's about your topic. The more responses you get, the better for your reputation and your earnings.
   
   
4. by giving one of your participants a "best response"
   You can mark a best response when you click after some days (for example, when there is no one responding to your discussion during one or two days) on the pencil beside one of your participants!
   You make one of your members happy and perhaps they'll give you a best response in exchange, too :-)
