People will become desperate and abuse any system so long as they think they can get a quick fix. The real benefits though can be found into steady application and time honored patience. Yahoo answers work as a real source of effective traffic if you stick at it in a respectable manner.
Great tips Case.

You bet!
Moderating comments here already is quite a job, let alone Yahoo Answers. They must have a whole team of moderators there and they must have developed an elephant’s skin.
I know I have.

I kind of like answering questions anyway, so it is not a big deal for me to answer them properly, but I’ve noticed that even when people aren’t trying to get traffic, they can be cruel, or just random and not answer the question, so I feel like yahoo must have a hard time moderating the answers.

I’ve seen it over and over again. If something works well, there will always be people who abuse the system.
We’ll have to fight it, and on the other hand, live with it. It still works.

I agree in that Yahoo! Answers can be beneficial for traffic, but I have found that in some areas the competition is fierce. People compete for the best answer status and therefore report some members as spammers. After a few reports, you can be banned. It is important to answer the question as mentioned in this article.

Ajith Edassery, I have been banned by yahoo before. I was new to internet marketing and I gave the same answer for two different questions even thought it was a relevant answer to each. They sent me an email and banned my account. So, be careful you aren’t giving answers that people might think are duplicates because they will either yank them or yank your account.

Going to appeal? Ask questions? Did you sent an email for explanation?

I have been effectively using Yahoo Answers for a while (almost two years with a level rating of 3 or 4). Recently though Yahoo banned me for no fault of mine I did not do any irrelevant link stuffing.

I’ve heard about this kind of thing before and I’ve heard that it is becoming even more difficult due ot people reporting people for replaying to answers with links.

Another technique I have used is to be the first person to answer a question. And the answer should be the correct one. This helps in branding and establishing onself as an expert.

Yahoo answers can bring you a lot of traffic and back links as well.However, you need to be very careful what you say there because you can get kicked out very easily.No self promotion, only recommendations.

The story is quite different now. Last time once reach 200 points will auto promote to level2. Now I think one need to accumulate 250 points only qualify to upgrade to level 2. But this is good though to reduce spammers try to spam all the useless links in the yahoo answers.
