Yahoo! Answers Your Blog Marketing

Writing by Brick Marketing on Tuesday, 3 of June , 2008 at 8:21 pm

If your blog is designed to deliver information and provide answers or solutions to problems in a specific field then Yahoo! Answers may be an ideal place to do a little blog marketing.

Yahoo! Answers is one of the places that people goto to ask questions and receive advice. If you are active and can answer questions related to your niche then you may receive a reasonable flow of traffic. You may also gain a reputation for being knowledgeable in that field. After all, that is what blog marketing is all about.

You can do a search on Yahoo! Answers to find questions in a certain category. You are better off looking for questions that are still open and providing a response that answers the question. Don’t spam and don’t fill your answer with keywords or links - it is very counterproductive. The key to successful blog marketing through Yahoo! Answers is being subtle.

Once you have provided an authoritative answer to the question,  you can leave a link in the source box. For best results, try to link to a page that relates to the question and answer - try to avoid just linking to your home page. If a question is asked about  ‘blog marketing through Twitter’ and you have a post on that topic, then link directly to that post.

The biggest danger to using Yahoo! Answers as a blog marketing tool is that you can wind up spending hours answering question after question. It can almost be addictive. The best strategy is to spend 30 minutes each day answering a question or two and then moving on.

Blog marketing can be done in so many places and in so many different ways. It is just a matter of identifying how each site on the net can best be used.
