Question & Answers websites are quite a hit among the different website’s these days and the main reason for this the option of answering to multiple questions easily, categorizing them and also sharing the same question/answers with others, saving time and resources. While you can reply to someone’s query through email, if the same stuff is listed on a public website, the information can be easily shared and this also becomes a community section.
In this article, we are going to show you a service offered by Qhub.com where in you can easily register and create a free Q&A Community within minutes and then edit the profile and customize it to make sure it looks professional and perfect.
Qhub offers:
the ability to customize each site
full management of your site, its members and content
the the ability to use your own domain name
In order to get started you need to Enter the Name of your Qhub, Pick a address which works like a subdomain. eg – amitbhawani.qhub.com and click on the create button. Next you will be asked to Register a free account with your details like Full Name, Email, Password etc and thats it after a email confirmation your questions answers portal is ready.
Once you login you will see the screen as shown below with options to Create Content, Invite Friends, Customize. A few sample questions would also be shown to you on the homepage, on which you can select from different options like Approve, Delete & Edit. Once you approve a question you can directly answer it and the activity is listed on your hub homepage. A active members list is shown on the sidebar with the most active person listed on the top.
The whole stuff is quite similar to what Yahoo! Answers offers you and is useful too if you are running a web services company or a eCommerce store, where you need a help desk or support management system with public answers.
Good post, thanks for adding it. It was good to read on this boring day!
Hi, interesting article about qHub. We looked at the Q&A market place, and decided we needed to expand it to include all types of Crowdsourcing & Crowdfunding. In addition, we decided that it was essential to create a Social Network, as people want to communicate with one another, even when Q&A’ing, crowdsourcing, or crowdfunding. Lookng forward to hearing your thoughts on our beta?
The site looks good, but the problem is that we can’t use it on our own server. If they had given the script for free, to use in our own website that would have been great.
