Can Expiry Dates of GA Questions be changed? 

Currently, a Question expires one month (ie. 30 days) after it is
opened.  While Questions can be clarified, and parameters such as
price offered can be modified, and Questions can be canceled (i.e.
expired immediately) there appears to be no way to extend a Question's
expiry date. Or is there?

Hi grthumongous,

When Google Answers first began in April 2002, askers were able to
specify how long they wanted their questions to remain open for
answers.

At the end of 2002, the editors changed this policy to a 30-day
expiration period. Since the change, all questions not answered within
the 30-day period of being posted, expired automatically.

In answer to your question, there is no way for the asker to extend
the expiry date. However, once the question expires, the asker is able
to repost the same question again for 30 more days, and continue in
this manner for as long as the asker wants.

I hope this helps. If you have any further questions, please don't
hesitate to ask and I will do my best to assist you.

Best wishes,
Rainbow
