Google has decided to close ts answers service after four years in operation. From the end of this week it will no longer respond to questions submitted to the Google Answers site. Google Answers provided a way for users to pose questions and set a price for how much the answer would be worth to them. Others from around the world could then answer the question, and receive payment, with Google taking 50 cents as a listing fee.

The search giant says over 800 individuals participated in the service, but it’s audience was quite niche and Google Answers failed to achieve mainstream adoption in the more-than four years it has been around.

A Google spokesperson told El Reg that the decision to close Google Answers was not motivated by financial concerns but that the site had simply served its purpose and that it was time to move on.
