In my experience it does increase traffic, but it doesn't necessarily convert. Mainly because people will check out the resource, have a browse and then that'll be it - Yahoo Answers is more about a passing interest than a real determined desire to buy / sign up for something. Traffic-wise though, it's useful.
I have used yahoo answer services here in DP. i have got around 10-15 visitors in total. For 30$ spent 15 visitors well that's a bit costly. maybe next time I will purchase PPC.
Its dependent on how well you answered the question if you get maximum ratio of votes it will obviously help you in getting good traffic. Try to answer questions relevant to your website.
Hi, yes it can but you must be careful as I just got banned? If you are looking to increase website traffic I would get forum posting: see my link for my new book, it's free and got some great information, check it out, dave
I am promoting a dating site, yahoo answers provide me a good number of traffic. Google likes yahoo answers so there is a pretty chance to get huge traffic for your business.
True, yahoo answers generate good traffic but low conversion at least your affiliate is "free stuff", very less member will spend money
Be very careful with Yahoo! Answers. They love to kick people off. I have been kicked off several times, seemingly for no apparent reason. I try to post in a bunch of different categories and try to spread out the times in which I leave links, but still seem to get kicked off every few weeks. The good news is that you can just create a free new account, and try again.
I have been providing yahoo answers service for over months and have a lots of regular and returning customers. They have said that yahoo answers have greatly increased traffic to their sites and majority of visitors come their from yahoo answers only.
