4 Helpful Tips To Explode Your Traffic With Yahoo Answers Marketing

This article will show you how to utilise Yahoo Answers as a traffic driving technique to bring visitors to your website.

The traffic from Yahoo Answers is generally laser targeted and high quality, as the questioner is actively looking for a solution to their problem.

The idea is to answer questions each day on your chosen topic, and with each answer, cite your affiliate link as a resource. This is what generates the traffic, people clicking through to your ‘source’ for more information.

Just position yourself as a helpful and knowledgeable friend, and you cant go wrong.

Tip #1 – Stick To One Subject

The best way to win with Yahoo Answers is to concentrate solely on one niche or subject area.

It may make things a lot easier for you if you choose something you have knowledge in, as a lot of the answers you’ll be able to provide without doing any research. Naturally, it will also be enjoyable too.

That said, the market needs to be big enough for a lot of people asking many questions on a daily basis.

Some of the best niches to choose are the big 3:

Weight Loss
Make money
Fitness

Or perhaps any niche where there is a big demand for a solution to a problem, and an immediate answer is desired, like toothache or acne for example.

#2 – Use a ‘FAQ’ Sheet

After a couple of days answering questions on Yahoo Answers in one particular niche, you’ll start to notice the same questions crop up time and time again.

To save yourself keep typing the same thing out all the time, keep a text document handy on your desktop containing ‘frequently asked questions’, and simply copy and paste the answer in.

Although, try to make it a little unique from the last time you used the same reply. You don’t want any of your answers reported as ‘spam’.

Tip #3 – Go The Extra Mile — Make a Landing Page

It’s easy to simply answer as many questions as you can, and leave the same old affiliate link or redirect in every time, but this can have it’s drawbacks.

Your account is far more likely to be flagged or reported by another Yahoo user for being a spam account, because that same link will be seen in so many answers. Having your account shut down after all your previous hard work can be a very disheartening thing.

It is therefore worthwhile purchasing a Domain Name with hosting related to your niche. You don’t have to spend much… “.info” Domain Names go for under 2 bucks. And as for hosting, there are free hosts out there like 000webhosting, and paid hosting can be as little as $5 a month (or less).

The point here is to create an actual website with presell content on it that would lead the viewer to clicking your affiliate link as a solution to their problem.

A lot of affiliate products, especially ebooks, have there own affiliate centre, where you are provided with pre-written content and articles, designed to sell the product you’re linking to. You can use these resources for content on your website.

This will make conversions a lot better. When a visitor clicks your recommended link in the Yahoo Answer, they will be forwarded to an interesting website (Your Site) with relevant info, rather than straight to a sales page, which rarely results in a sale.

To take this further, use your cheat sheet discussed earlier to create posts or pages on your site answering and expanding on each of those frequently asked questions. This is ideal, and can really increase your click-through rate.

For example, if one frequently asked question in your niche (weight loss for example) was: “what’s the best way to lose belly fat?”, you could create a page or post answering that exact question in a couple of hundred words.

I mean, if you asked that exact question in Yahoo Answers, and two people answered showing different links, what would you rather click on

johnny5.weightlossproduct.hop.clickbank.net/

or

myweightlosssite.com/the-best-way-to-lose-belly-fat/

Naturally, once the Yahoo Answers user has clicked through to your helpful content, they’ll find that the only recommended solution to their problem is via your affiliate link!

Tip #4 – Consistency

Like many marketing practices, utilizing Yahoo Answers as a traffic building technique is a numbers game.

Answering only a couple of questions just isn’t going to cut it. You need to consistently answer questions in your niche on a daily basis. This will keep building up traffic to your site over time, and the effects eventually snowball.

To keep consistency, the best way forward is to develop the habit of answering a set amount of questions per day. Even as little as 5 will do, and these can be done in as little as 20 minutes.

Stick to using the tips above with Yahoo Answers marketing, and soon you’ll find that the traffic generated will far out do your expectations.
