Yahoo Answers. How Much is Too Much?

I used to promote proxy sites there and I got some loyal visitors from there. You just have to answer questions that are very related to your sites theme. For example, to promote proxy sites, I search for answers like "How to unblock MySpace?" etc...

 

Serious answers with related link to your own website are fine.
I get good targeted traffic from YA, lot of people joined my cooking site from there.
One of them is now a Mod in the forum.

 

i get good trafiic from yahoo answer and ppl voted me best for many of my answers.

 

Not worth the effort...

 

I get a lot of traffic using Yahoo answers. If you post your link in the source box and it's relevant to the question you shouldn't have a problem.

 

Actually i got a sale for one affiliate program with using just yahoo answers.

It seems to work sometimes.


Take care!

 

Was the sale big?

 

People on Yahoo answers are idiots.... every time I look at that site I die a little inside.

 

You can get good targetted traffic for relevant answers

 

I have noticed they are a little on the dull side..

 

no one deletes my links, but I've been chosen as a best answer 50% of the time

 

I have never tried yahoo answers. I think I might have to check it out. hopefully I get some good hits there. I didnt know you can post your website on there

 

I agree with some former post. In my view Yahoo answers is not worth the time promoting your site. MySpace and craiglist are much more efficient.

Yeah, I didn't have much luck with it either.

 

I always post links but of course take care that they are relevant. So far everything is ok.

 

I get no traffic from yahoo answers... Ive got 16 "best answers" all with a back link to my site. The site actually contains the information posted in the answer so its not considered spam, but no traffic results.

I think it just depends on the question and your site.

 

I get a lot of hits from Yahoo answers on one of my blogs from a question I answered about My Space and the question was resolved 2 weeks ago.

 

I love Yahoo Answers, but I find it very addicting - which makes it a time waster, because I love seeing my points increase instead of doing the work I should be doing. However, it's a great way to send targeted traffic while also building a name for yourself.
