I'd love to know as well :) I just got my simulation email so I'm planning on doing it in the next day or so. I don't expect to earn much but any input would be helpful.

I'm planning to schedule time for each of my eggs and trying to decide how long to set aside for each.

For me it depends on the time of day and week days and weekends. Slower times I average at about $1.50 an hour. Steady and busy times I average at least $3 an hour.

Same here. Weekends I usually average $2- $3 and hour. During the day between $1-$1.50 an hour depending on how busy it is

During busy times I average $5-6/hr and slow times $2-3/hr. I've spent a lot of time and practice on it though over the past month. I do ChaCha as well, but I only do it when kgb is slow.. then I do both at the same time to maximize earnings. ChaCha questions take a lot longer to answer due to how they filter the questions.

Can you please give me some tips on how you are avg $5-6/hr during busy times? do you you open up different windows that you may use ahead of time?? i am struggling at about $2/hr and would really like to make more. if i could make $4-5/hr i would be in heaven. any tips from anyone would be appreciated.

Like said above it just really depends on the traffic and the questions you are getting. If it is busy and the questions are already in the DB you can make a lot more, but if you have to spend a few minutes researching every answer you make less. Use your bookmarks, documents, sources, or whatever you use that has a list of reliable places to look for the most common questions. I find that helps me the most. It's not impossible to average $5-6 an hour at peak times, but I would say that you will probably average more in the $2-3 an hour. I have been at it since January and that is the average for me in slow times.
