    The Yahoo Answers TOS is very strict on advertising though, and posting links could get your Answers account banned.

    If your aiming for Q&A networks, I would also try out "Quora". You can fill out your author bio and place your links plus telling a little bit about yourself.

    1. About SEO and keywords ranking, I fully disagree with above answers:

    The links from Yahoo! answers are NO-Follow links. You may check it quite simply. Have a look at the source code of the pageand you will find out the link attribute rel="nofollow".

    They may be listed as backlinks in your google webmaster account, but this is because google webmaster account lists BOTH do-follow and no-follow links.

    If someone here know yahoo answers page with do-follow links, just please give an example.

    2. About traffic:
    yes, Yahoo may provides you with traffic.

    Yahoo answers can help you draw in more traffic to your site but don't just randomly post your link as answers to irrelevant questions. Also make sure that your answers are valuable - if you just post nonsense with a link, your answer will be reported and removed.

    Yes, yahoo answers can get you more traffic and backlinks, but it's a little hard to get what you want. uoften need to answer problems so that you can get more score to reach level 2 then input your link there.

    Yahoo answers is my passive money maker...I am almost angry on me because i dont give it enough daily time to work it! I posted 20 answers back in 2011 and getting about $120/month from that. If you know how to SEO questions/answers you can bring decent competition kw on first page!!
