Mylot.com is a FANTASTIC way to earn money online. In essence, mylot focuses on three main areas: DISCUSSIONS, NEWS, and BLOGS.

I joined in March of 2007, and so far I've earned roughly 70 cents per day by posting and responding to users' questions and articles.

Payment occurs as follows:

1 cent per creation of a discussion
1 cent + per response to your discussion

1 cent per image click

The other benefit of mylot is the ability to direct TRAFFIC to your blog or website via a link on your profile page, or via a signature on your posting.

HOT TIPS FOR EARNING WITH MYLOT

1. USE A TABBED BROWSER TO CREATE NEW DISCUSSIONS

It's much faster to use tabbed browsing to create new content on mylot. If you simply create a new tab for each discussion started, you can save a lot of time. It's also a bit more organized.

Start New Discussion (Right Click to Create New Tab)

2. MAKE FRIENDS WITH EVERYONE

No exceptions. Ask everyone to be your friend.

3. RESPOND TO YOUR FRIENDS DISCUSSIONS

If you respond to your friend's discussions, they will in turn respond to yours. If you become a familiar face, you will be the first to receive a response from similar users.

3. CLICK THE + BUTTON ALWAYS

"Hot" articles will receive more buzz on mylot. For your discussions, and your friends' discussions, click the + button.

4. PUT A LINK ON YOUR PROFILE

Put a link on your profile to your blog or even your Helium Articles. It's a nifty little way to increase traffic to one of your websites.

5. WRITE GOOD TAGS

Tags are key to directing users to your content. Learn how to maximize your tag usage. For example, use single words to describe your discussion, but phrases for specific people.

"John smith" instead of "john, smith"

6. POST YOUR TOPICS AT OPPORTUNE TIMES

Realize that most people will use the internet during the afternoons and evenings. If you post around 4 or 5 PM, more users will see your article in the "RECENTLY STARTED" list.

Summary

While I believe it's possible to earn a nifty little sum each month by mylot, there's an incredible opportunity to direct traffic to your particular website. The networking aspect of mylot is probably more valuable than the 1 cent per post/discussion.

So, if you want to earn a few extra dollars a month with online, mylot is a site that you definitely must visit.
