Hi everyone,

First, I think this is great place and I learn so much by now reading some great stuff. Thank you.

Right now, I have big problems with Yahoo Answers: it doesn't show my link when I post answer. Never. And I don't know why. It's shows like link in Preview, but when I submit answer, link disappear. Why?

I'm really don't understand this...

Thanx for help!

    EDIT: I'd say you don't listen to me because i got banned from Yahoo Answers about a year ago and I haven't used them since so I don't know if something changed

    Have you been picked as top answer at least 5 times? I am pretty sure its 5 times. Then your links will be show up and be clickable.

    You are in Level 1. Level 1 uses don't get live links. You have to go to Level 2.

        Go ahead and put links in your answers even if you are still level 1. When you become level 2, those older links on your past answers will become clickable. -- Patey88

    Yahoo Answers is a great resource. One word of caution, they will ban your account with a "drop of the hat" if you put the same link in all of your answers. Make sure your answers are useful, helpful and not just a blatent plug at your site. Many times I will give a link to an article of interest (which I wrote of course) then the article points back to my site.

    As a matter of fact, many times I will give an answer, and leave no link at all, making it look more "natural" to the moderators.

    In my experience with Yahoo Answers, too many of same links will get you banned. Of course you can easily start a new account, but all of your prior answers will be removed along will all of your hard work.

    They may have flagged you and now none of your links will be live... the next step is they ban you, or it may just be a screw up on their part, who knows... Yahoo answers is good but you shouldn't be worrying that much about them anyway, their backlinks are no-follow, and its easy to get banned if you're not careful.

    Yahoo answers can still make some people big money but its tough work, and its best to be outsourced.

    Once you reach level 2 you can add links in your answers and they will be "clickable".

    You cant post links when you have a low level.

    Make some more useful posts and eventually you will be able to put links in there as well.

    Any questions just let me know

      The best thing is to get to the Level 2 before posting the link. Answer as many questions as you can, by really giving good answer. Eventually you will become very popular and get lots of best answers, which will push you up.

      New accounts are considered spam, and not very good for you. so answer questions with thought. Spend 1 hour per day in there. In less than 30 days you will be able to enjoy good FREE traffic.

    I agree with those above, you have to be above level 1 before this happens.

    Stick at it for a few days answering as much as you can, then it will work.
