    What did you do?

    I used my account to answer questions, but I always add my affiliate links. Well, I got reported for about 10% of my posts. I'm currently a Level 2 user.

    erm, not violating the rules would probably do the trick.

    I did same. But for some times, I made fake accounts and Questioning about my niche and answer with different id and selected as a best answer lol for gain more points and enter in level 2 to get backlinks.

    Did I really against to community rules and make violation?

    Please suggest me how to properly use YA and do not get suspend in future.

    Thanks

    First try to become the Level 2 user. You can post links once you reach on level 2. But don't do any promotional activity or link post in level 1 , else you will be banned again.

    Do not put links in every question you answer
    When you do use a link make sure it goes to a page inside your site that has to do with the question. Going directly to your homepage is a sure way to get reported

    To explain malky66's comment a bit further: read Yahoo Answer's rules and foillow them. Pretty simple, in fact.

    You can't I have done this also. I provided value in my answers and I still got suspended. It works to get traffic to your site but I would concentrate on putting good content on your site.

    You objective should be to contribute to the Yahoo community.
    Dont spam there.
    Use your own site link naturally and dont spam it in every post.

    You probably used false information which some one reported. Or you have been posting URLs which are not desirable by Yahoo, until or unless you can justify that you are not spamming.

    First, read their guideline and rules very carefully. Don't answer to questions that are against the rules. This also can cause you to be warned and get suspended. Don't answer in the same way. Don't post same comments. Don't answer questions as considered like spam. i.e. "checkout this examplelink offer" or similar types "hey I found this which is perfect for making money online examplelink". Reach level 2 without posting links. After reaching level two answer questions that are reliable and people that are really searching for an answer. When answering, get out of your mind that you are trying to promote or advertise your link. Simply answer the questions to be useful for the person who has asked the question.

    Answering from different accounts doesn't do the trick. They are probably able to track your IP and see that you have the site's cookies, that's why they know you answered your own questions, and that is strictly forbidden.
    It's the hard way — but being 100% honest and following the simple rules they have created will give you a good reputation and make your life much, much easier.
