Bhokta is a next generation wiki site. Why we call it “a next generation wiki site?” because we are proud to say we are a unique site in the world. We will see why we are unique below.
The site was created in September 2009 by a young entrepreneur, a smart dentist practising in his native town in india, got his masters in endodontics (root canal specialist), a vivid music lover and a magical nature photographer who likes to venture out on weekends to get the feel of nature , that’s me, guys. I am Arun the founder of Bhokta hailing from India, started blogging casually in mid of 2005 mostly about dental stuff and about nature photography.
One day in May 2009 one of my colleagues introduced me to a budding internet entrepreneur in India who makes a living from online marketing. He was just laid back by my knowledge in the field of internet entrepreneurship i had to offer and after seeing him it motivated me to start a project of my own.
That’s how Bhokta came in to limelight. Now I will explain my first part why bhokta is called as unique, the site pays generously for the people who contribute to the growth of the site. But how? Bhokta pays its users for every article they write here at Bhokta unlike some sites which only steal the resource. We coined the term "next gen wiki site" because we pay for writers to write and also to edit existing content
The word Bhokta simply means “happiness/ enjoyment” in Sanskrit, that is the sole reason why I created this site. I will update my success story along with you in coming up year’s.

Arun,
I didn't know you are a dentist that's one pretty amazing accomplishment.
Do you happy to do any other type of dentist work besides root canals?
I have an tooth that has a very small chip on it is their any type of plaster I can purchase and correct it myself?
Hi Arun,
I think it's not very clear what you mean by "next generation wiki". Why is it a wiki site? Visitors cannot modify articles like in a wiki.
Another thing that is not clear to me is: who is the target audience for this site?
Cheers!
Hi gec,
The conventional wiki site only provides a content that can be edited. no comments, no money for the writers.
Here at bhokta we pay the writers for articles they submit.
In few months time we will provide a editable form of bhokta, then you can have access to edit the content.
The interesting part is writers will get paid for even editing the content.
The audience to the site is not defined, it has a world wide audience.
Happy writing:-)
Hi padrino,
Thanks for your compliment.
Regarding your query, there is no means a person other than a dentist can restore a chipped teeth.
I advice you to visit a dentist nearby to avoid any bad prognosis for the teeth in future.
Thank you Arun for your clarification. Now I see you're aiming to create the next generation of wikipedia.org, or of about.com. That is a very ambitious goal and I wish you much success!
Quality must then be the number one vector. The articles must be interesting and useful.
Again best of luck and much success, I'll try to contribute some more articles myself :)
Cheers!
