Every webmaster who is engaged in a link building program should include Yahoo! Answers on his or her list of things to do.
Yahoo! Answers is an incredibly popular site. It is visited by thousands of people a day and has an Alexa ranking in the top 100. In fact, it’s the number two reference site on the internet after Wikipedia.
The reason that it is such a great resource is that you can include the source of your answer. That means that you can post your link. If you link to other sites in addition to your own, you’ll seem less ’spammy’. When the site started, this was an obvious solution to get a PR 9 link. But Yahoo! has now instituted the ‘no follow’ code.
Some people have reported that the links do not show up in the Google search methodology but web pages have been indexed in MSN and Yahoo as a result of the links.
In any case, it is a good way to generate highly targeted traffic to your site. The people who are asking and reading questions on the ‘car audio’ portion of the site are highly interested in subwoofers and are apt to check out your site on the subject.
Matt McGee of Small Business SEM spends an hour at Yahoo! Answers twice a week. He says ‘If I spend just one hour answering questions in the small business category, I’m guaranteeing myself a traffic bump over the following several days. It never fails.’
The key is to become recognized as an expert. Don’t give ‘yes’ or ‘no’ answers. Respond in detail. The writer can choose a ‘best answer’ which is highlighted. If the writer doesn’t pick an answer, the community can.
Answer the questions that come up for your top keywords. Your answers are indexed by Yahoo for a long time and will show up in natural search as well as on the site. The first answer is likely to have the most impact. Check for new, relevant questions daily or set up an RSS feed so that you can answer them immediately.
Build a profile. This includes uploading an avatar. Let people contact you directly through an email address specifically set up for Yahoo! Answers. Stick to the one or two categories most relevant to your website. If you have multiple websites that you’ll be answering questions for, create multiple profiles.
Yahoo! Answers is a natural place to generate traffic for your site. It should be a regular part of your link building strategy.
