    Why is ChaCha getting so popular these days? I see people all over trying to become part of their volunteer group. Whats so good about that and what do you get out of being a part of their staff?

    It's not volunteer, plus you get paid a fair price to just help people out with searching. I am currently a guide and its not that bad.
    Thanks

    I have never used chacha nor would i like to, they seem very inspired by there advertising service. I also see that Chacha seems to be on a pr0 very unusual have they been banned?

    You can find more info about their guide program on the Become a Guide link at the bottom of chacha.com.

    You do need an invite to become a guide though. I am not a guide, but the service has been covered extensively in the media especially in Indy since they are located here. Their payment system is unique in that you have instant access to the funds. I've heard good and bad about being a guide so I'd recommend doing some research on google. There's some good info in the press section on their site too.

    No its $5 per active search hour with a maximum of 50 cents per search!

    And almost no one earns $10 per hour because thats "Elite" status and you need lots of searches ( over 1000 i think ) and you need to be reviewed good.

    Yea but you hardly ever get paid searches though. And you have to do lots of training to get to Pro to start getting paid searches so its rough in the beginning but it gets better!

    SnappleKid13: what about the payment options? am i right about there being some special there that sets chacha apart? i remember hearing something about a unique payment method that allows you to withdraw funds immediately...

    Yes its very unique! You sign up with " The First Internet Bank of Indiana " and they send you a debit card. Then once you reach payout which is 50 or 100 you get funds directly to your debit card!

    Seems like a good idea but I mean if you have a decent job in IT or customer service, you already get paid way more than $20/hour. Not to mention, in a real job, you get to interact people to people.

    I'm currently Master and with $86 so far lol.
