KNOWLEDGE CENTER: A New Feature in ISC
After a pretty long gap, we are introducing a new feature called "Knowledge Center" in ISC. In a nutshell, this feature resembles "Quora". In the case of ISC, this combines the features of "Ask Experts" and "Articles" into a new, single section.Going forward, most of our revenue opportunities will be focused on this new section. You will earn cash for each of the answers you submit. Our editors will individually evaluate each answer and assign cash.
The Knowledge Center will have 2 types of content:
1. Topics - these are just one-line titles/questions
2. Answers - anybody can post answers to any of these topics/questions. Cash rewards and various other rewards will be given to members for posting answers.
Some highlights of this new feature:
1. This new section will be exclusively on topics related to education, admission, campus life, competitive exams, higher studies, overseas education, education loans or anything related to studying in schools/colleges.
2. This new section will have features similar to Articles but multiple people may add their content (mini article or answer) under each topic.
3. While in the "Ask Experts" section any member can post any number of Answers, in the Knowledge Center, each member can contribute only 1 answer. More than an Answer, you will be adding "Content" to each topic. If the topic is a question, you can add content in the form of answers. if the topic is a general subject, you can add your own mini-article under the topic.
4. In the articles section, each member can create his own articles with his own titles. In this new section, "Titles" are independent of the content. You can add content to any title even if the titles are created by someone else.
5. Even though anybody can create "Titles", they do not really own the title. Titles will become a common entity which allows anyone to come to add content to it. Free to create any number of Titles, relevant to the subject. The author's name will not be displayed with the titles since titles become common property once approved.
6. The author's name will be displayed with the content added by each member. Points, CC, AdSense revenue sharing, Revenue Share Bonus and many other reward programs will be applicable only for Content added to the topics.
In a nutshell, this new feature is a "Quora" within ISC but with the exclusive advantage of a lot of rewards and prizes for the contributors.
Currently, this new feature is in trial mode and is taking answers. Feel free to start contributing.
NOTE: In future, we may discontinue the "Ask Experts" section since this new feature has all the features currently in "Ask Experts". When we discontinue any of the old features, any points/cash credits earned from those sections will remain and will not be cancelled.
To get started, look for existing titles that are interesting for you. If you don't find suitable titles, just go ahead and add your TOPIC.
