Registered users can post or respond to questions, post reviews, or add a blog about a topic. Quora also has social media features: users can upvote (like) a question, follow people, comment and leave private messages for others.Spacesis a feature that lets people form communities around shared interests and tastes.
According to the Quora association, the number of daily questions asked varies, but it is almost always between3,000–5,000 questions. A question will get five answers on average.

Is it appropriate for children?
Quora is rated for teens ages 13 and older, and it can be safe for kids with adult supervision.
Even if Quora does have moderators, who remove inappropriate content, answers and users, children can come across adult and mature content or negative views on various topics such as religion, politics.
Parents may want to warn their children that upvotes do not necessarily imply that answers are accurate. Some answers are more popular or funnier than others, get more votes and are shown first, but they are not the most “correct” ones.
