How to Make Yahoo Answers Work for Your Affiliate Sites

We've all heard of places like yahoo answers but did you know your can make it work for you?

  1. This guide is assuming that you already have an affiliate site. If you do not have one go get one. The first step now is to make a yahoo account that is strictly for your business relations only.

  2. Step 2

    Got the account? Good. Now go to Yahoo Answers. You are already signed in through your new yahoo account. Click on the link that is labeled "advanced". It's right there by the search bar. See it? Good. Click on it.

  3. Step 3

    Your now at the advanced search screen. You'll see a lot of options but we are going for simplicity here. Type in the keyword that relates to what is it your affiliate site does.

If the question is about how to program an iPhone they don't want to see an ad for your cell phone business. They want to know the answer to their question right then and there.

  5. Step 5

    Did you answer the question completely? Did you offer them what they needed to know? Good. Now at the bottom ad your affiliate link and submit your answer.

  6. Step 6

    Repeat this on each and every question you answer. Answer as many questions as possible. Do not, and I can not stress this enough, copy and paste the same answer to every question. Take the time to read the question and actually answer what they are asking. Again, just answering with an ad for your
