Some Vital Facts about Yahoo Answers: Yahoo Answer will bring you referred targeted traffic for sure. This type of traffic is highly valuable. The visitor came from a reputed website and a related page. Yahoo Answers backlinks are Nofollow, but they still may help your pages got indexed, only they will not contribute to your page ranks directly. Even if yahoo backlinks are nofollow, they are valuable and they indirectly contribute in your SEO as well. Also they add to your nofollow backlinks count, so making your link-building more natural. Remember, NoFollow backlinks from reputed websites are not not worthless, like say, wikipedia, digg. Many websites, including yahoo itself get content for their FAQs from yahoo answers, in that case you receive a dofollow backlinks. In past one of my best answers was used in Yahoo's FAQs including my backlink. that was a really great backlink. A backlink from yahoo itself. Many people copy and paste yahoo answers ( manually or using bots ) as content of their website, this process is generally automated and includes your backlink. Thus your one best answer may give lead to many copies of backlink, remember bum marketing? Negative thing about Yahoo Answers is that it is very strict about using links in the signature ( or better say sources section ) People who do yahoo answers for payment generally got themselves banned on single spam report. If you dont want to get banned, you really have to work hard to find out exact questions and put your links very wisely. Regards - Parul Sharma
Links from Yahoo Answers use NoFollow attribute which blocks flowof Google PR or link value from the Yahoo.com domain to the sites listed by Yahoo Answers users as a quality control method, however there is much value to links beyond PageRank. Since Yahoo Answers is a high authority site, the Q&A sessions are indexed in many search engines and searchers find these listings in search results. The end effect is clicking to the Answers page which then lists the user generated link as a resource.
