    I'd be cautious about that. The Yahoo Answers TOS does not allow any advertising/promoting of any kind.

    Hi!

    If you have achieved level 2 by gaining points for your answers, now you are able to add links in your answers. That can help you to promote, but Yahoo doesn't allow any signatures.

    type your link out , or paste it.
    if you post more than two links every day onto there, your account / and all of your answers will eventually get deleted.

    Yahoo answer's interface has been changed . But you can copy/paste your link below your answer in the source box.

    There are some good gigs on fiverr where people will post questions and answers for you. The trick is, if you want to do it yourself, is to answer other questions to leave much less of a footprint, that will look much more natural than promoting your own site all the time.

    You can copy paste it into your answer, but it won't be a live link (can be clicked) if you not level 2 yet.

    Yahoo Answer is not meant for backlinking. Ofcourse, some people occasionally add their links once out of 10 post.

    Truth is, once you start adding links, anything can happen, they can ban you in no time.

    I suggest looking at web 2.0, article directories, press release, doc sharing, wikis, social bookmarks and others for backlinks.

    Yahoo Answers remains very popular, and thus regardless of other considerations, it will continue be used as a source of targeted traffic, especially for those seeking an alternative or complement to SEO or ranking position traffic methods. So long as Yahoo Answers still permits live links (and it does) a smart use of the site will continue to pay off for marketers. The fact that answers with links can be posted by Fiverr or other gig sites basically takes the risk away, as you don't have to use your own YA account for this form of traffic generation.

    You can add it to source, but make sure its related to the topic.

    If you are at level 2 , you can add links to your answers or in resource box. But it depends upon you how smartly you add the link in the answers so that it doesn't looks like a promotion but a helpful link.

    Agree with vna1611. There are many people providing yahoo backlinks at Fiverr. Not everyone is good at all. You can't go enough with only 1 id, again for multiple id you may get suspend. For this reason, I usually use SEORUPAK at fiverr for manual yahoo link building. They provide unique IP based answer+link

    click on answer box and in the source field you can add your link and it'll be visible as a hyperlink in your answer.

    I don't know if Yahoo! Answers is very good for back links anymore but it can definitely be used to generate traffic. The process is very simple actually. Find questions related to your blog/articles/content and write answers using pieces from your content. If you're high enough level, you can link directly in your answer. If you're not, you can try adding your website(specific page) as a source. Just be careful when doing this, as you may receive infractions and have your answer removed. Definitely works though.
