Using Your Affiliate Skills to Bank off Yahoo Answers

Update: Looks like yahoo has caught on to this ..scroll down to bottom, and read comments for details…

I’m going to start out this post by saying, I did not originally come up with this idea. This is one of the many reasons I stay active in the community of Internet, and Affiliate Marketers, and why you should too.

Originally I had asked the man Ruck, over at Convert2Media what some good ways to promote my offer with some organic traffic, besides PPC.  The answer was short and simple, Yahoo Answers.  I actually did not pursue this at first, because I felt it would take to long for the traffic to hit, if any at all, and it would be hard to convert that traffic.  I was wrong on one thing already, and that was the amount of time it will take for you to get traffic after you answer the question. The first time I answered a question, with relevant information, and a good answer, I was reward quickly with traffic.  If this remains true, think about all the niches that are out there, and how many categories there are on Yahoo Answer. Don’t sound like Spam, and if you actually answer some of the questions with the correct answers, you might be rewarded for it.

To get you guys thinking, what if you were to do this for every offer Convert2Media had to offer? With some time on your hands, and some relevant good content, your bound to get some conversions.

1. Sign up for a network:
(Watch out shameless affiliate plug coming in)
Convert2Media
Ads4Dough

2. Sign up for Yahoo Answers:
Yahoo Answers

3. Answer some Questions.
4. Get Paid!

Pretty simple concept. This is just the beginning of the idea, but throw your own spin in there to get even more nuggets.

One BIG tip for you guys to get started.  The sooner you answer the question the better.  We all know that after the 3rd answer, users probably won’t be reading it as much as that first reply! So be fast!

Okay, looks like I caught on to this idea too late, and Yahoo has caught on.  There may be other question sites out there that you can look for.  I’d like to hear if anyone finds any, for now this looks like a did.

    Nice plug for Convert2Media, and getting organic (free) traffic is always nice if you can get it.
    I also recommend video as a way to grab rankings. I was really impressed by the TrafficGeyser product.
    Since you mentioned affiliate networks, I think MediaWhiz is great.
    I’m biased though because I work there.

  2. Yahoo answers is become smart , they will track your IP and ban you if they fine any suspicious activity.

    Thanks for update! I’ll have to check and see if my account got banned yet. There maybe ways to slips some in there. What about proxies?

  4. diggaNo Gravatar says:

    Ha! Nice! I’m always looking for new networks. I figured since the guy who runs the network helped me out with the idea, I would credit him. MediaWhiz aye, I’ll have to check that out!

    Digga.

  5. Did your account get banned or was it just a suspension?

  6. diggaNo Gravatar says:

    Looks like I’m banned, we will see. I’ve seen some other awnsers with links to sites, so I wonder if I just went overboard with it.

  7. This still works as long as you’re not a complete idiot about it. If you answer every question with a spammy link, you’re toast.

    If you only throw a link in there, say, every five answers or so, AND you are actually being helpful and…this is the important part…answering the person’s question, they will let you slide.
