Links on Yahoo! Answers

Discussion in 'Yahoo' started by SMedia, May 14, 2010.

    I submitted my first yahoo answer here: http://answers.yahoo.com/question/index?qid=20100510202518AAtaPVp

    However, the link to my site, www.bestsupplementinfo.com , which is the source of my answer, did not appear as a clickable link. Other people's links are clickable. Is there a reason why mine are not?

    Thanks for the help!

    You have to post more than one answer, and get up to a new level on Yahoo Answers.

    If you want your links prompted, hire a Yahoo answerer (LEVEL-3) who answers for you at the cost of few bucks

    I think on level 2 that is when you links will finally start showing up, which is at 180 points I think. I could be wrong, since I don't really remember the post count needed.

    You need to have above 250 points for your links to be 'clickable'. Here's the scoring system.

    You need to reach level 2 to make your links clickable

    So that's the reason for it. I'm also guessing for that when I first join yahoo answers where my links are not clickable. Thanks for these information guys this stops me from guessing.

    Makes sense to avoid spam. Same reason why DP and other forums don't allow sig links right away. Even when your link can become clickable I wouldn't recommend spamming it, otherwise you'll get the ban hammer on you.

    Yahoo answers is also a great place to see what problems people have. There is your niche!

    Yahoo answers's backlink is very useful. Keep answering and increase your level to 2, you'll get it.

    You will need level 2 which shouldn't take you too long. Don't make the mistake a lot of people make and recommend your website in every post, they pick this up very quickly and before you know it you are banned.

    Yahoo answers are a great way to get links in and also a great way of getting more traffic to your website. Post a helpful comment, people will read your comments and you will be able to get traffic to your website when they think that your link is interesting enough to click on!
