100 Experts: a curated, commission-paid Quora for trusted answers

Shaan pitches '100 Experts', a Quora-like service limited to ~100 vetted experts per category (e.g. home gadgets, personal finance) who get paid on commission for genuinely helpful answers, betting people will pay for a real, credentialed human over anonymous forum replies.

“I would love to see somebody make a thing called 100 Experts. And they basically just find 100 experts, let's say, and start with the category of like home gadgets or like personal security or like personal finance or whatever, right? And it's 100 experts. You don't know either they use their real names or not, but you can ask any question and it's Quora with a specific set of people who can reply and they get paid to reply.”

Steal thisBuild a vetted, commission-paid expert Q&A network for one commercial niche, monetized via affiliate links on the products experts recommend.

Framework

The audience-building playbook: answer questions, then climb the authority ladder

Altucher's playbook for building an audience from zero: answer every question on Quora, LinkedIn and Facebook groups to establish expertise, then graduate to higher-barrier outlets like Forbes and TechCrunch for authority, then launch a free newsletter, and only later a paid subscription.

“I would go on Quora and just answer every question I could. I would participate on LinkedIn groups, again, answering every question I could. I would go on groups like the Trends Group or other Facebook groups, and you know, a lot of people ask questions.”

Steal thisStart by answering every question in public forums to build expertise, then climb to authority outlets before monetizing.
