Being a chacha guide for extra money

Being a guide for Chacha can allow you to earn anywhere from $0 (if you don’t answer any questions) to $400 or more (if you answer 2,000 questions). Your basic duties as a guide are to answer questions submitted by users of the chacha service.

People send questions to chacha via their website or via text messages. You would most likely be a text message guide. As a guide, you would research questions and answer them in less than 160 characters, in as short of an amount of time as possible. Sounds easy, right? Not really. It is easy to get used to, but right off the bat…it is actually pretty difficult to find VALID answers quickly. You must list the source website for your answer, even if you know the answer to the question already. You can’t list wikipedia, yahoo answers, or a number of other “black listed” sites as sources either.


If you think that this is for you, then please feel free to apply for the job. You must take 4 tests to get approved. 2 of the tests are “fitness” tests, asking questions about ethics and company history. 1 of the tests is a typing speed and accuracy test. Those three are easier than the last though. The last test is a “simulator” test, meaning that you are given questions to answer that you must research and provide a speedy and cited answer to. You must get 8 out of 10 of the answers right/approved to be welcomed as an official guide. If you do not pass the first three tests, you can register under a new user name and email address and try again. If you fail the simulator test, then that is it…you can not try again, ever.

Forever is a long time and hopefully they will change that later, to maybe a month or two. Being a chacha guide can be a rewarding and educational experience and I would recommend it.
