How To Get a Link in Yahoo Answers

Discussion in 'Yahoo' started by SEO_WatchDog, Mar 2, 2009.

    I was planning to add a question in Yahoo Answers with a direct (though nofollowed) link to a website, but no html code seem to work. Do I need to have a Level 2 or smth? There is no way <a href> works...

    That's not really possible. Yahoo answers doesn't allow href codes to target your anchor text... If you want that, just try some other answer sites like yedda... This answer site allows you to use anchor text to target your keywords.. Plus it's a dofollow too...

    The reason why I am asking is because I have actually seen one answer that does contain anchored link in the answer...

    I can't believe nobody knows the answer... OR is it some kind of a commercial secret?

    I don't think I've ever seen anchor text in links on Yahoo Answers, where's this example that you've seen?

    Have you tried BB code to see if that works at all? Or how about asking on Yahoo Answers? ;)

    I don't know, but ask other SEO's and DP members, if they know the answer then tell us.

    he's interested to be thread-starter or "question raiser" and not a replier... so I think there's no way he could get an anchored text link

    I just leave the links in the resource box, but I believe you can add them in the post as well, just add the http://
