One highly innovative website is Blurtit.com. Constantly compared to its biggest rival Yahoo! Answers, Blurtit.com offers a more close knit community where anyone can ask a question and have it answered within mere minutes! Blurtit.com is completely free to use and no fee is attached if you want to register and be a member of this highly active community.

To ask a question, all you need to do is to head over to the Ask Page. After selecting an appropriate category that ranges from Arts and Literature to Business, Home and Gardening to Love and Relationships as well as Photography and Travel, you are required to submit your unique question in approximately 40 words. You are also recommended to include elaborations to your initial question. Keep it short but inject as much details as you have and voila, your question will go on live after clicking the “Ask my question now” button! Answering a question is even simpler, just type an answer to the question that you are viewing in the box below it and your reply can be seen by everyone.

Blurtit.com is unique because it encourages its members to participate as actively as they can by awarding points for responding to queries, rating questions and answers, and taking part in a debate. In fact, you can garner points just by logging in each day! You can earn additional points if you recommend Blurtit.com to your friends and family as well as write a blog post about them while including a link to Blurtit.com. Points are accumulated to help you gain higher levels within the Blurtit.com community. With higher levels come perks that you will enjoy. For example, if you are a Baby Blurter with less than 300 points, you are not allowed to insert hyperlinks in your answers but you may do so as an Uber Blurter.

Before you jump right into asking a question or answering other people’s queries, do take some time to see if there are questions that are similar to yours. Repeated questions are a no-no within the Blurtit.com community. You should also try to be as friendly and courteous as you can and in no time at all you will acquire many like-minded pals in Blurtit.com!
