I have been answering questions online for pay for many years, so have had experience with many different sites. The only site that I have been on that has a decent amount of questions is Just Answer. Here is the link
http://www.justanswer.com/health?r=NurseAnnie&bt=0
They only pay monthly via paypal, but a recent change is that you get the money instantly in the account, and there are no fees at all- they pay any fees. There are many different categories ranging from health, automotive, homework, general, pets, etc etc Usually you have to go through a process to get accepted- you have to answer some test questions related to the category that you choose to be an expert in. When you pass, you then have to go through stages where you can only answer a certain amount of questions and you only get a certain percentage of the money. Once you get accepted answers under your belt, you get more money and eventually answer an unlimited amount of questions. You do not get paid for every answer. What happens is that in order to view your answer, the asker has to leave a deposit. If they accept your answer, you get a percentage of how much the question is worth. At this point questions range from $9 and up, though they are currently testing different prices to possibly change the minimum. I currently work a few different sites, both paid and free.

The site seems to be for doctors and nurses.

@albanian The site is for all kinds of experts, but they do have more of healthcare professionals, and automotive experts in there. It pays well, as stated above, but it's not an easy thing to become an expert on there!

As I stated above there are many categories. It is very easy to get accepted. There is also a general category, which has questions like questions that are posted here. In fact, this morning someone from here quickly got accepted into one of the categories.

Mahalo Answers is the first I have heard of that offers members cash for answering questions, and you barely have gotten your feet wet.

The top members here have all earned several hundred's of dollars. Sure currently it might not be enough to make a living off of, but definitely some good extra scratch to compliment any other job. And if I know CEO @jasoncalacanis he's probably got some other money earning plans coming up down the line.... like soon... probably before June... stay tuned.

This answer is deliberately misleading as you can see from the page you pasted. Mahalo has tips and you are an enthusiast; but, the question is talking about "a pretty good biweekly income"! Only one Mahalo person is managing over a $100 a month, everyone else is earning far below that.

As @jeffhoard said, right here at Mahalo Answers is the best way to earn money for answering questions. Every question asked here offers a tip, which is either funded by independent users or Mahalo. When you're chosen as the best answer to a question, you receive that tip amount in Mahalo dollars. Once you get $40 Mahalo dollars, you can cash out via Paypal. The tips can range anywhere from 25 cents (funded by Mahalo) to over $100!

Also, other users can give you tips at any time for answers they find helpful (or for any other reason, really).

I didn't join Mahalo to earn money, but I've been pleasantly surprised at how quickly the tips add up! I hope you stick around and become a part of our community. If you have any questions or need advice, feel free to ask me.

Good luck! :)
