what sites do you all recommend to lend?

Recently I heard about Salt lending and it is too good because it is backed by shapeshift founder.
And another one is ETHlend.

I don't recommend lending bitcoins on platforms because you can easily get scammed. These sites have an algorithm to calculate trust/reputation which can easily be faked by buying fake IDs, social media accounts etc. and since bitcoin transactions are not reversible, the site won't be able to do much, all they will do probably is provide the info of the person you gave money (which again, his info could be fake). If you want to lend, use the forums and ask people to provide collateral, It's much safer.

it's a real site or not, because if the site is a fake lie, damaging the good name of our bitcoin. thought the bitcoin community was just such a fraud, because until now it's a lot of damage to bitcoin, but we never know.

Try searching on google with the keyword "BTC Lending", I make sure the site on the first page is a trusted site to use.

Lending is not a safer option to earn bitcoin. I used to very active on btcjam and given out loans around $1000 USD through their platform. Sadly, I lost majority of that investment because people simply didn't repay me back. Since then I stopped lending business because there is no actual governance present in that market. Even after the lending platform verifies the profiles before activate them in their platform, but if those person runs away with money, no one is there to actually get hold of that person to recover that amount. So I strongly recommend you not to use those platforms. In recent times, I only know btcpop is an active lending platform but think before your leap in that market. 

This is still a big risk. If for the sake of insurance I advise you to consider some other ways.

I have bitconnect.. but wont recommend of course.. due diligence is a must

I lend my Bitcoins and other cryptocurrencies via margin lending on the exchangers Poloniex and Bitfinex. The rates on Poloniex are best on Dogecoins, as I experienced and on Bitfinex on Litecoin, whyever. Lending here on Bitcointalk and on the exchangers are the only legit ways, I know.
