hi,

I was just wondering that Yahoo!answer is a big place and thousands of people visit it every day. Can we promote our affiliate product by giving answers to the related niche?
 


I did it for a bit and made a small amount of money but those pesky Yahoo moderators deleted my account the next day. If your posts are informative and unique you may be able to get away with it. If you're creative there's always money to be made.
 
Spam the shit out of Yahoo answers with your affiliate link. They love that and you can make a shitload of sales. People are telling you no because they don't want you in their territory.

I've added this strategy to my blog on how to make bank with Yahoo Answers.
 
I have tried it and find that it works fairly well.

You can't spam or blatantly promote, but if you give genuine and useful answers you won't get slapped by a mod. Just be subtle.

I would usually do an advanced search of my niche and reply to their question and point them to one of my sites that could possible help them. You can get a small amount of traffic from it, especially if it is a popular question.
 
You can make a couple sales, but if you think I'm lying about it just go ask your affiliate manager, see what he says. They'll tell you no, and if you do it you'll eventually get booted from the offers when it gets caught.

depends on the network
 
Follow up to every question with a response, and an affiliate link some where near the 'Source' as a credit. Educational and mobile offers do very well via this method :)
 
I made some pretty good money on yahoo answers about a year ago messing around but the effort definitely wasn't worth the payout. I'll bet it's even harder now if they've stayed the course and kept up their anti-spam war.

No. Absolutely not.

Clearly you didn't read the Affiliate Governing Body's Rules on where and what you are allowed to market.

Fuckers like you should get banned from Yahoo!

Well I have heard that if you cloak your affiliate link and then answers the question reasonable then you have a chance of getting good traffic and sales from yahoo.

I will be trying out and show you the results I get from Yahoo.

I earned a lot from yahoo with the Google referral program they had last year around this time.(Anybody heard of that).

I have a total of 31,000 impression since the last payment.(Around October)

I had answers around 1000 questions about watch online niche. And my links are still there on yahoo.
 
Hello friend,

If use auto software for help can be very easy for make Yahoo answer monies.

The software first post question where can I buy this acai berry product and then post answer with other account you can buy here with link of affiliate.

Or it post question anyone try this acai berry product and then post answer I find review here with link to page of landing.

Good luck bro
 
If I am going to try your method it would take me months to sell one product. Anybody got something easier than that?
 
It's not really considered "bad" in the aff networks eyes if you run the traffic through your own site first. I've done it myself, and it works pretty well, just eats up a shit load of time if you're going to be giving really quality answers.

Just put only one link in the resources area, below the answer, and you should be fine for a few weeks, until the moderators notice your answering a whole bunch or answers with the same site linked..

1. Pick a niche (Lets say, acne)
2. Answer questions around that topic (Why is my acne so bad? How do I get rid of my acne? Etc etc, just type "Acne" in the search"
3. Post your url in the resources box (Nothing spammy looking, register a domain that looks legit. Something like acneskincareresource.com, not freetrialforacne.com)
4. Make a really solid lander to pull people in (Lots of calls to action, a little information, but mainly get them to your aff link)
5. Send them to your aff link from your site (Free trials are probably best for acne, just choose acnemd or something similar)
6. $$$ (Start generating some traffic, and the leads will hopefully come.)

Remember, it depends what target audience you hit. If you're doing something like "acne" try to answer the adults asking questions. Not the 14 year old kids that don't have a CC.

Good luck.
