AskMe widget enables bloggers to monetize individual knowledge
MANCX PRESS RELEASE: 17 November, 2011, London, San Francisco and Stockholm
- Mancx blog widget for paid answers launched -
Mancx is today launching its AskMe widget, a new tool for bloggers and online experts who want to generate more income from their expertise. During a successful beta testing period over 1000 bloggers from over 20 different countries and working in a variety of industries signed up and used the AskMe widget.
The AskMe widget enables bloggers to get paid when answering any specific questions posed by their readers and visitors.
The widget lets the visitor ask a question, indicate how much money they are willing to pay for the answer, and then sends on the question to the blogger. For the blogger, the AskMe widget provides a contact management tool, a negotiation and delivery interface, as well as the administrative back-end, including billing and payments, and if the blogger does not have a registered company set-up, Mancx can handle income tax administration across almost all countries in the world. It is an efficient tool for engaging in a profitable dialogue with blog visitors.
Says Mattias Guilotte, CMO and co-founder of Mancx: “The AskMe widget resolves a long-standing problem for bloggers: how to turn their knowledge and the effort they put into their blogs into cash.
“Finding high quality information on the web is becoming increasingly difficult, and people often turn to bloggers as experts and trusted sources of quality information. However, a lot of questions tend to be put aside by bloggers as they’re are overwhelmed with requests for help which require time but that won’t help them pay the bills.”
“The AskMe Widget is a world first and bridges the gap between sought-after bloggers and visitors willing to pay for their knowledge. During our beta testing period over 1000 bloggers installed and used the AskMe widget and have developed a new revenue stream from their blogs. The aim of Mancx is to create a thriving global knowledge market by empowering the individual to treat his or her own knowledge as a valuable commodity.
“The AskMe widget adds a great new dimension to the service Mancx provides, and by giving those in the knowledge business a cash register to go with their shop window (ie their blog or website) it’s another step on the path to a global knowledge market”, he continues.
The AskMe widget is aimed at any blogger or online expert with a certain level of traffic to their website.
Mancx, based in Sweden, has a patent pending for its solution to managing the trade in information.
