I’ve been writing there a over 2 years now. Been on the Quora+ program about 7 months I guess? I get 2-4 million views a month which equals about $150-$250 a month in earnings.
It’s horrible if you ask me, but like you said, it’s gets exposure. There is ad revenue and revenue generated from those who pay the subscription fee. I haven’t had referrals like I have here on medium.
But I have noticed an increase in my earnings if I post 1-2 a day. It’s a more laid back, relaxed writing platform than what medium is. The only issues with quora is not every answer is behind a paywall. They pick and choose who is able to read what. I recently started paywalling all my answers.
I don’t understand why av answer with 1 million views earns $14 and one with 20k views earns $38.
I always think, wow, if quora paid like medium I’d be rich😂😂
