Does Answers pay their Answers article writers commission based on ad revenue generated by their articles like similar websites do?

Answer 1

The professional writers who write the articles that appear throughout the website (not the answers to questions) are recruited by Answers Corporation.

In return for publishing articles here on Answers, which can be found below questions, on homepages and via sub-domains such as ReferenceAnswers, the writers generate traffic to their own blogs and websites. In other words, they are earning revenue by traffic that they receive from people reading their articles on Answers who visit the writer's own blog or website in return.
