    I have done some yahoo answers to someone's question, but deleted by yahoo and my Id was banned for a week. I think my answer is not an obvious ads.

    Is there something I should pay attention?

    Be specific about your answer. Don't look for the points first. Try to give the correct answer. Don't copy the answer from other.

    Also, I find that it helps to provide some genuine answers without links. This establishes some much needed credibility.

    I agree but also nice soft sell within the genuine answer is what works best for me

    is yahoo answers worth the effort? how much time do you put into it per day or week?
    how long have you been working yahoo answers as a means to sell online?
    is the income you generate from just yahoo answers enough to replace the average income from a regular job? (like $2500 per month?)

    You should don't give any website address in answering source because yahoo don't like that but you can give a one source after 5 to 6 answers then yahoo will not bane your ID.

    Last week I asked a question like this: which company's concrete pump is the best all worldwide?

    I didn't answer it because I really want to know the answer, but why it was deleted by Yahoo? I am totally misunderstanding it.

    Your best bet is to spend some time on Yahoo answers and give some really genuine answers without advertising AT ALL. Wait until you're kind of a reputable member before you start soft-selling. Even when you start soft-selling, continue to post answers that do not contain any selling whatsoever. Doing this makes the answers that have soft-selling in them seem more honest and less salesy.

    Asking a question like "Which company makes the best x" is an opinion question and extremely likely to be answered in a spammy manner. Think about it like if a user were to ask a question like, "I want to make money online, what are some great make money online opportunities?" Maybe that person really DOES want an honest answer... seems like an innocent question. But questions like this are seriously asking to be spam-ridden.

    I hope this helps. Best of luck on Yahoo answers!

    Yahoo answered can't be beat by even Google. I am pretty sure that it covers 99.9% topics that any one can face in daily life.
