"In addition to a base payment (guaranteed to be $675 per month for Guides in their first two years, with a minimum of $500 per month afterwards), About.com pays Guides by measuring page view growth (month-over-month for Guides in their first year, and year-over-year every year after) with payment incentives for page view growth. If your page views grow, you will never make less than $675 per month."
It's an excellent opportunity. For more information on becoming an About.com Guide and the areas of expertise they're seeking, visit About.com.
