Any ideas on how to get people submitting questions???


Make it easier to do.

Your user interface is not really conducive to getting people to ask questions. The button that is the call to action in the header uses a cramped font and is hard to read. The site is 100% width so when I look at it on a widescreen monitor, my eye is immediately drawn to the very far left where the video (the most visually engaging object on the page) resides but from the video, my eyes are not naturally led to the call for action text which at that level is merely an all-caps bold text with the dreaded "here" anchor text.

If, for some reason, my eyes don't go far left they instead go to the top of the screen where the horizontal scrolling marquee is located. So now I'm all the way up there where admittedly I have a better chance of seeing the button in header (save for the issues I noted initially) but unless I'm a frequent flyer on your site I have no real idea what is going on. I would have to spend some precious time clicking about to figure out where I am and what I'm supposed to and I'm much more likely to just hit the Back button and leave at this point.

Take hints from the most popular and engaging sites on the web. Almost all of them have a clearly marked path for the user to follow to get them engaging and interacting.
