    I found that Yahoo is set as no follow. Is it useful to answer questions on Yahoo?

    Yes, it is another decent tool to gain additional exposure for your business. But like others have said, it isn't going to help towards SEO.

    I've read where Yahoo Answers has brought lots of targeted traffic to a site. I'm in the process of setting up an account and shooting for 4 answers per day.

    It's free and worth a shot. It's also a high PR backlink once you earn enough points for your link to appear!
