    Hi,

    Has anyone used companies that provide Yahoo Promotion services by posting questions on Yahoo Answers from one account under a relevant category and then use another account to post answers that contain keyword anchor text links to your site?

    Is this a worthwhile strategy?

    It is called spamming and overuse of service.. And it is not worthwhile.. Its better to answer posted questions (by others) or ask questions and let others answer..

    Use the Yahoo Answers plugin for Wordpress. This should help a lot as it is the best way to earn with the most relevant questions and answers in your website

    I guess I'm naive and did not realize such services existed. Regardless it is a blatent violation of Yahoo's TOS. They have also recently cracked down on posters banning a number of accounts and IPs even though they were high-levels with a high percent of best answers.

    This is not the right way, once yahoo found it, your question and answer will be delete. I suggest to answer properly. I'm one of the yahoo answer user with level 5, i stop posting for about 3 months since lack of time but the the traffic still come to my site

    They'll not only delete the question, but they'll also delete the accounts used.
