Yahoo Answers – Website Traffic Method

After Google, Yahoo answers is the best thing that has ever happened on internet. Basically for those who do not know what is Yahoo Answers, Yahoo Answers is an online service where people can come & ask questions regarding almost anything, These questions are answered by fellow yahoo users, It’s a great service. Very useful for any-one & every-one.

Yahoo answers is spread across a bunch of countries, So basically when somebody posts a question in India, other fellow Yahoo users in India will get to see the question on the yahoo answers India’s home page. The questions are usually not open to users of other countries.

Okay so now we start with Yahoo Answers Method,There are a couple of ways through which you can get traffic from yahoo answers. Almost all the methods bring highly targeted visitors. The fact is yahoo does not like them,Because it’s like you are stealing their Red Hot Visitors without paying them real green advertising Dollars $$$.

Now lets get started,I would i highly recommend you to go through their Community Guidelines before you start your process.

So Lets Start with the process:

1. Prepare Your Yahoo Account For Answers:

Yahoo has a scoring system : http://answers.yahoo.com/info/scoring_system as given here. Please go through it first, Its is really important that you understand this clearly. Yahoo has a policy that if you are not a Level 2 user , You can not put live links within your answers or your questions. So you really need to understand the points system.

Once you thoroughly understand the points system, Your first goal is to reach level 2, For that you need tohelp a lot of users for almost a week. Do not Spam, You just need to be helpful, just answer each & every possible question.

2. Step 2:

Yahoo has a presence in these many countries, Select your target country from the list, Because there are chances that you are a user from Netherlands but you want to target US users, So select your country as it fits. Also the country list is always available in the footer section of all yahoo answer pages. So you can switch as & when required.

• Argentina
• Australia
• Brazil
• Canada
• China
• France
• Germany
• Hong Kong
• India
• Indonesia
• Italy
• Japan
• Malaysia
• Mexico
• New Zealand
• Philippines
• Quebec
• Singapore
• South Korea
• Spain
• Taiwan
• Thailand
• United Kingdom
• United States
• Vietnam
• en Español

3. Step 3:

Now as we have already setup our account, We are on the country specific site in which we want to target, The next step is use search questions option available in the middle of the page(very close to the header section). However if you still find it difficult searching your page, You can use following link.

http://fr.answers.yahoo.com/search/search_advance

Now as you can see there is a subdomain in the url called fr, You can replace this with your target country(for UK, use uk.answers….., for india use in.answers…..) to search in a specific country.

You need search your target keywords over there, For e.g you are selling Garden Tools, search for garden tools, gardening tools & all the other variations related to that, You will see people asking questions like “I want to buy X thing, Your suggestions, I want to do this, I am stuck doing this please help” etc…
What you need to do is just answer their questions, & put your website url as Source:www.example.com. This method works like charm. Proven & tested, Most of the times you get extremely targeted website traffic.
