Most things,
earning money included, never get accomplished without some dedicated goal setting involved. Making money at
myLot will be no different. It really will help if you sit down for a few minutes (you've joined already, right?) and think about some realistic goals.
Put the money thoughts aside for just a few minutes.
In the last post, I mentioned that to
make money on myLot, it's a good idea to post regularly. This is true and, additionally, you should decide how much time, reasonably, you can spend at the
myLot site. It may be a half hour per day - and maybe you'll only get 1 post out there or 1 response to someone else's post - that's okay.
That would be 7 - 14 posts per week. Heck - I didn't realize the benefits of all of this when I first signed up at
myLot 6 months ago. I sure didn't post that many posts per week. In fact, I think I nearly had my account terminated from disuse because I had a pretty bad attitude when I first started posting at
myLot. I posted a few times, then took off for a couple of weeks, logged back in expecting trickles of coinage to be racking up in my members area...
NADA...
Then I got kind of ticked off after a few more stops'n'starts, and I didn't bother with the site for several weeks...then a while longer yet...
Meanwhile, some friends of mine who HAD BEEN posting regularly while I was off elsewhere, reported to me that they'd been watching their earnings rise! Some had received a few payouts to their payment processor already and they kind of wanted to ring my neck for being a butthead.
I asked them how it happened that they got paid and I didn't - heck - I wrote some long posts that I thought were well-thought out and everything, while some of my friends wrote what I called 'little snippets' at the time.
Needless to say, once things were explained to me better, I stopped being a butthead!
The 'little snippets' gained my friends credibility with their
myLot circle of discussion friends, while my absence got me nothing. My friends were invited into discussions all the time, which meant that it was easier and easier for them to post. They were just 'responding' quite naturally and quite socially everytime they logged in to check their members' areas - while I, in the beginning, was logging in tryin' to figure out some outstanding post to make and, consequently, not coming up with anything in my head that seemed worth writing about.
My friends said that they set really simple
goals at
myLot. The goals were to simply log in to the
myLot site every day or at least every second day - even if they only had about 20 minutes or a half hour to spend at the site.
Do yourself a favour - just 'RESPOND' over at
myLot. Make sure you add someone to your friends list - say, at least one, everytime you log in to your account. That's not a huge task - just find someone whose posts you've enjoyed and check their profile. Find the appropriate button and add them. Then, if they leave a message for you sometime when you're not logged in, you might not even have to think hard about what topic to post on when you log in again. Maybe you'll just check out a thread that your '
myLot friend' told you about in his/her message.
Set some
goals - even small ones - and you'll get a lot better results at
myLot than I did when I first joined! If you've just started at
myLot recently, I'm sure you'll be
making money in a lot larger sums than I did and - sooner than I did. Your first month will be better than 3 or 4 months of my 'beginning' months at
myLot, that's for sure!
