    Thanks.

    You still get an opportunity to place a link; it's a nofollow link but it's still a link. Yahoo answers drives traffic to your site, assuming that you are linking appropriately, rather than increasing your number of backlinks.

    Yes it's possible, but that depends on how you do it. You can also generate traffic from Yahoo Answers if you post sensible, informative comments. Link dropping won't do anything good.

    The backlinks on Yahoo! answers are nofollow in nature so they will not help in SERPs ranking but are the good source of traffic. And do not try to leave your link in every answer otherwise may be your a/c get banned by the admin.

    Yahoo Answers is no-follow links, but yes, it can provide very targetted traffic if you post your answers in the correct way and answer the correct kind of questions. :)

    It gives a targeted traffic if your site is a perfect source of information as what is being asked in the question.

    I think now links are also not click able, so there is no benefit at all now.

    It does apply to Level 1 account. If you are level 2 and above, the links will be displayed as hyperlink (clickable)

    I think the best to get link from yahoo answer is by answering the questions related to your niche, and put the resources with your particular URL. People who looking for your niche will certainly click or copy-paste you URL.

    it depends on how you and what did you do there

    You have to be careful to not look like an advertiser though, but its good for targeted traffic.

    i believe you can gain traffic, but the links are nofollow and could hurt rankings.
