    If you look around all big marketers blog and read their monthly revenue report you will came to know that they are making most of money form affiliate marketing. May be you have read that you need good marketing experience and start up money for affiliate marketing.

    In this post you are going to read how can you promote products at yahoo answers. People say this is blackhat method, but it doesn’t matter if you are making good money. This won’t make you rich but help those who are not making nothing.

    You have to choose any good affiliate network. I like MoreNiche as they have some good products to promote and lot of resources including articles, images, templates etc. After you sign up, choose your niche ( I advice health related products).

    To promote affiliate products you need to have your own site. Register any domain name, .info if you are low on budget, I prefer .com for my all sites. Most of you already have hosting if you don’t have then you can get cheap hosting for $2/month or try free one.

    Yahoo Answers is cool but be aware that if you push too much on the affiliate marketing front it's pretty likely that your account will get suspended.

    Yahoo Answers is a good tool but I just wanted people to be aware that they could build up a good profile and spend a lot of time answering questions, throw in a few affiliate links and wake up without an account. Just want you guys to be aware of this before you go crazy thinking it's the Holy Grail ( it's not ). At this level it's content on a knife edge so don't use it as a sole marketing strategy. Just my 2 cents.

    Thanks,

    But I don't think there is any problem if you give link at resource box.

    Yahoo Answers is awesome, but they are sensitive. I got my account suspended on just the first try with my link.

    ...then they caught up with the other three posts.

    Just be careful.

    I've been a long-time member at Yahoo Answers. And I mean, my account was up there decently (Level 4).

    I wake up this morning to find out my account was toast. I never put affiliate links in my answers, but I would include links to my websites if they were relevant. All questions were answered in a way they should be, and that's to help out the person asking the question.

    What did I do? Who knows, but it just goes to show you that you can't rely on one source of traffic. Vary up the places you spend your time getting traffic from, so when a situation like this does happen, all hope isn't gone.

    The other option is AnswerBag.com which is similar. Not as easy to navigate, in my opinion, as Yahoo Answers but provides the same sort of forum. However, the people asking questions in AnswerBag seem a little more random. They ask questions just for the hell of it, not necessarily to find legit answers.

    For example, I looked in the business section and one guy asked, "Why should I be nice to the people I work with?" People answered very legitimately and politely, but it was rather silly to ask.

    Just be mindful of your audience. Are they really looking for what you think they're looking for?

    It seems a lot of people (not most, but a decent amount) on Yahoo Answers will thumbs down your answer if you include a link. Even if it's a great answer and great link, they must go through and try to get you banned just for posting a link.

    I'd be especially careful with affiliate links and/or landing pages.

    exactly;) I've seen many times like people are trying to answer questions, that are not even related to the subject and promote their links. They are getting banned pretty quickly...

    Many people have several accounts. If one is closed -no problem.
