Information it the answers I would geuss matters. I usually try to jam in as much info into a topic as I possibly can, adding links to sites pertaining to the topic will definately help along with photos

I really don't think the length or the subject matter makes a difference in how much you get paid. I really do not know how they calculate everything.

I cant speculate about the earnings but I think it is better to form a longer, coherent and relevant post than a nonsensical, one word, useless response...

well visibly several short ans could be more helpful but wen u get the tag of having given best reply...it matters the most...so finally i wld jus say dat its the quality not the quantity that would matter.

why does it all have to be about money?..yes,mylot asked us to post only quality responses,and also addes that the short ones such as yes or no will be deleted..my point is that if you really enjoy your time here and you are interested in the subject you chose to respond to you will see how you will type a few lines,by giving a little developped opinion

I'm not sure. I do know that in the terms and conditions they say that just because you write a ton doesn't mean you'll make more money. I don't know how everything is factored.. I don't think anyone does.

Here is something I found under the "earn money" link : Post quality content. For example, generate discussions that engage other users and provide insightful responses and comments to other users discussions to further the topic.

I've noticed on the days when I have submitted longer responses, my pay for the next day was much more when that when I answered with something short. It may be just because of the popularity of the topic. I am not really sure why, but I try to answer with as much detail as possible. I've also heard (hasn't been confirmed) that you get NO pay for one word answers or answering questions that have been asked over and over again.

You get paid more for better responses as being selected as the Best Response. I do not see how a best response can be a couple words or one time. If I get a response that is long, I read it! If that person took the time to type it all us, I will give that person respect to read it. And most often, yes, those are the best responses for me. :)

If you respond quality post, it is possible you can hit keywords which I think measures the qualiy of your pos and earns you money. If in one post there is two keywords you hit, you get more earning.

I think they are looking for quality discussions with quality answers. Make a comment, but be more specific instead of one or two words or a short one liner. These are discussions, and all input is welcome as long as it hits the target.
