    how do you get clickable hyperlinks on yahoo answers? do you need a certain amount of points or something?

    when you do acheive this, will all your previous non-clickable links turn into real hyperlinks?

    the reason ask this is because i recently got a best answer with a link to one of my sites, and i want to make it a real hyper link and not just text.

    No, there is no way to edit an answer once it has been posted. But don't be discouraged, now that you now how to properly drop your link you should have no problems in the future.

    when you give an answer put link as http:// , Otherwise you can't get clickble links. I have a good traffic to my proxy site from yahoo answer.

    There's no point in having an anchor text in Yahoo Answers - it is a nofollow link anyway.

    Nofollow links are still good for anchor text value (not that it matters in this case since it cannot be done with Yahoo answers)

    you put your site URL with http for example http://www.onlinepersonalinjuryclaims.co.uk

    if you put onlinepersonalinjuryclaims.co.uk than it not be clickable. and second thing yahoo answer is not providing anchor text facility

    Yeah, but they are still great for generating traffic. And spiders still follow "no follow" links, whether the SE's admit it or not.
