Promoting Offers Using Yahoo! Answers

speedbird · 11-11-2010, 06:38 PM

Hello Guys! I need to know the best strategy in promoting CPA offers using Yahoo! Answers. I am thinking of going this way since my PPC budget is getting depleted and nothing much in terms of ROI (Return on Investment).

Is it legit to promote offers on this platform i.e Yahoo! Answers?
Are leads coming from this platform be considered as incentived or non-incentived?
What offers can be promoted using this platform?
How do you change an affiliate link on the source box so that it looks like a 'normal' URL?

Am looking forward to your replies. Your assistance will be highly appreciated

It's important not to SPAM Yahoo Answers, but if you promote a service or product that is truly relevant the method does work. If you do not have a domain to use for your affiliate link, use a shortening service for your affiliate link such as bit.ly

Best i could think of with YA is to go to MW,MICW,MTURK and hire 100 workers with level 2 at YA to :
1.Ask Q 2.Give A with your link in it 3.Rate that answer as best.

To hide aff link use DMR, iframe or namecheap dot com

Outsourcing this method seems like it might be a good idea. However, spending your own time on YA is purely a waste of time.

i agree with jeffrey73. it should be faster when we hire people to do this job (YA). YOu can do other job while the hired people do your job.. best of all, you can have lots of refferences from many people that put your link.

I got suspended from Yahoo Answers, I promoted only relevant stuff, worked just for a couple of weeks, after that I god suspended and I tried countless times to get my account back.

Exactly, you can't do much on your own.

Yahoo is very sensitive to spam and they will block IP addresses if they find someone they feel has abused their system. You can outsource, or just be helpful and not spammy.

Even if you are not spammy but do not rotate your IP and comment more than 5 in a day they ban you. Give it a try, I've been there. There are good forums and blogs on yahoo as well to comment on, to get loads of visitors back, I am using them and not that dangerous.

Yahoo answers is definitely not a good source of traffic for any serious IM. Consider article writing if you have the time...

I can't say I've ever heard of this. I've commented a lot more than that in a day and never had my account banned.

I do agree about changing your IP frequently though, and getting your comment ranked as best answer.

I tried it but the "top contributes" flag you for "spamming" so I would be careful. There's a way to get around that though.

I haven't tried this out but you can test it out. Create a YouTube video about say, a free iPad. Go onto the "Videos" or "Computers" section I forgot I haven't logged on ever since my account got banned. But once there you will see a lot of topics about people asking other to watch their YouTube videos.

Just ask people to check out the video who knows you might get some conversions.

You can try that I have to try this out for myself to see if it works.

I think level two is not big issue, just start work promote your offers and just keep working when ever you'll get level two all links will be hyperlink automatically even the previous one. So your work will not be wasted just focus one and only thing that your post, content and offer must be relevant....

Andrew Zapp · 12-11-2011, 02:04 PM

You're able to promote them via Yahoo answers. Just make sure you don't spam. Also, promote more than one offer incase you advertiser has an issue with the traffic you're bringing in.

rockong · 12-12-2011, 01:44 PM

No need to hire when you can easily work with multiple Yahoo answers accounts using Answer Assault (you can find this on the WSO threads). No need to log in and out of accounts.

Included is also a guide that'll help you go about using answer assault the right way so that yahoo answers doesn't even come close to trying to flag you

Check it out and let me know if you may have any questions!

MrOfferz · 12-12-2011, 02:07 PM

Yeah. Yahoo has really started cracking down on any posts that simply exist to get the end user to click on some outside link.
