The important thing to realize is that you don't get expert advice.
Rather, you pay somebody to do a Google search for you.

>From the FAQ:

"Google Answers is a way to get that help from Researchers with
 expertise in online searching."

"Our Researchers are not necessarily experts in the field related
 to your question, but they are experts in locating hard to find
 information on the web. If the answer to your question is online,
 chances are pretty good they'll find it."
