What do you get for answering questions on WikiAnswers?

Answer 1

There is no such thing as an "experience point" on WikiAnswers, but you earn "contribution points" for each contribution you make WikiAnswers, such as answering a question or asking a question. You can also earn "trust points," when someone thinks you're a helpful or influential contributor and clicks on "Recommend contributor."

Answer 2

It depends what you mean by "reward."

WikiAnswers is a community-based Q&A website. They look to their users to ask and answer questions. If you mean by just answering questions anytime, you can get the Premier Answerer badge if you answer quality answers, but that's about it.

In a WikiAnswers AnswerThon, if you answer enough questions you can get a prize (individual prizes are listed for each individual AnswerThon). AnswerThons are announced on the orange banner on the WikiAnswers homepage.

In addition, for many contributors of this site, the reward is knowing that you have helped out somebody else. Answering questions can help you learn new things.
