Quora is a place where you can ask questions and get answers written by people worldwide. The QNA platform is getting increasingly popular every day, and for good reason. But most Quora users are unaware of the one thing that makes everything worth it. Yes, Quora can help you earn money! It is not a simple process, and worse, it is not in your control, but it is true that Quora pays users for quality content. What is Quora Partner Program?
Quora partner program pays you for asking questions on the platform. Quora team chooses its partners, and you cannot opt to be a part of it. To be eligible, you must have 100k views on your account and must be invited to join the program. Partners post a minimum of 10 questions daily and get paid by the Quora team. The payment is based on the ads visitors see while they view your content.
Quora- A Platform to Ask
Quora (www.quora.com) is a website that lets you ask questions. The questions you ask will be answered by people worldwide. Many of the answers are so reliable that they are shown by Google when you type in the question in the search bar.
Quora has an answer for every genre. Be it math, or science, or commerce, or business, or mythology, or even funny questions, you can rely on Quora for an answer. There are even questions that you can never dream of!
Students rely on this website a lot for homework. Even experienced workers find themselves stuck and stumble on a Quora question for assistance once in a while. The reason for the popularity is that there are millions of users who love to answer queries. Surfing the website also helps you gain knowledge and clear any doubts.
Quora Partner Program
Quora has had plenty of users ever since it started in 2015. Today, there are millions of users who either ask or find answers to their queries daily on this platform. To encourage questioning and answering, Quora has developed the Partner Program, which gives questioners and answerers benefits.
Similar to getting paid on YouTube, Quora Partner Program pays users for writing questions. However, there are some limitations and rules for that. You cannot be in the program unless Quora lets you in.
The requirement for getting a chance to be in the Quora Partner Program is that your content must have more than a hundred thousand views. Only when your account meets this criterion, Quora may give you a chance to be in the program. Quora chooses its partners, and you cannot control it. There are many top writers that are part of this program.
Responsibilities
Being a member of the Quora Partner Program requires you to post 10 questions every day. There are rules that apply to the type of questions you should ask.
Quora merges all the questions that are similar. To be a valid question in the QPP, you must ask something new and innovative. Questions in the QPP that are merged with questions that are not in QPP are considered invalid. Also, if you post two similar questions in the QPP, then they will get merged and will be counted as one.
The program also makes stupid questions invalid. Yes, there are people who even ask, “What is 1+1?”, and such questions will not be considered. The questions should be genuine and must have a useful and mature answer to them.
Asking questions regarding Quora is also not permitted. Questions with first-person terms will be tagged invalid too. Remember that Quora’s algorithm to detect similar or genuine questions is rather strong, so you just cannot fool it.
Remember to not ask questions being anonymous. Anonymous users are not tracked by the Quora team, and they do not account for views or submissions. Any anonymous answers will also most likely not generate any income for you. Hence, you should be signed in as a user before posting any content in the Quora Partner Program.
Payments
The questioning and answering efforts are rewarded by payments. It is not a fixed amount that is paid every month or week. The amount paid depends on many factors.
Firstly, it depends on the quality of the questions and their answers. You should ask questions that are really important. Think about a question that you might search on Google. Again, it must not be a riddle or a first standard maths question, or an abstract question. Avoid asking questions about politics, personal life, and controversial topics.
The number of views and answers you get calculates your total payment. Another factor that determines the payment amount is the number of advertisements. Quora provides spaces for ads after every one or two questions. The more valuable the ad is, the more money you earn. Of course, it is not in your hands, and you cannot control the type of ads shown on the platform.
Remember that there are questions that do not show ads. Such questions will not be able to generate income for you. An example of such content is an adult question, a controversial question, or any question that indicates violence. Hence, you should not post any such questions under QPP.
Malpractices
Quora does not tolerate malpractices and fraudulent behavior. You must not have multiple accounts and use all of them to earn money through QPP. The idea of increasing the number of views by clicking on the question yourself, or getting paid by clicking on the ads yourself, may lead to termination of the QPP. Also, the inappropriate use of the report button may cause problems for you. Make sure you report a user only when it is absolutely necessary (which, in most cases, is not).
Mode of Payment
Quora uses a Stripe or Paypal account to pay money. In the US, having a Stripe account is enough. Quora pays money based on the views and answers on your questions. That money is stored in the QPP dashboard, and you can only withdraw your money once it has reached the minimum requirement of $10. Below $10, you cannot withdraw your money. The amount is added to your balance monthly.
Conclusion
The Quora Partner Program is a great way to earn some money by helping others find some good questions. You can also request top writers at Quora to answer your questions. While the amount of money paid varies with many factors, it is a bonus amount for you.
Quora Partner Program users are chosen by Quora, and you cannot opt to be a part in it. To be able to get a chance, you need to have at least 100k views on your account. Being a QPP member, you have to ask a minimum of ten questions daily and try to get some good and knowledgeable people to answer your questions. Make sure you don’t answer your question, or this will be counted as fraudulent behavior.

The payment is made through Stripe in the US. You must earn a minimum of $10 to be able to withdraw your earnings.
