Marketing with Yahoo Answers: 10 Ways to Promote Your Business Using YA

0
inShare

I previously wrote about How to Use Yahoo Answers to Promote Your Business . The article was first written in 2007 when I just started to top the Business and Finance category, and 2 years later, I am still in the top 10 of the Business and Finance category.
Why use Yahoo Answers? For PowerHomeBiz.com, Yahoo Answers has offered a number of benefits:

• Free traffic – we always love free!
• Lots of traffic – with more than 21 million users in the US and 90 million outside, YA can potentially bring huge traffic (and free!)
• Responsiveness to ads – I’m a numbers person, and I love to slice and dice our web stats. One of my important finding is that traffic from YA has brought us a huge chunk of advertising income, and that alone is the main reason why I spend a lot of time on YA.

Marketing through Yahoo Answers is not easy. Unlike Twitter where you drop your link in 140 characters, you need to actually answer the question — and some of the questions can be detailed and even tedious. Plus, YA doesn’t allow dropping links for the sake of merely dropping links.
So how can you use YA to promote your business?
1. Be relevant = Relevance is the key. You can only drop your links either in the source box or in the actual answer IF AND ONLY IF the link is actually relevant to the question.
My strategy is to drop PowerHomeBiz.com links only if I actually got the answer from any of our pages. For example, a question on what business should I start, I paraphrase the content of our article Choosing the Best Home Business to Start and then put the article in the source code. If anyone complains about spamming, I can easily argue that the source is where I actually got the answer.
2. Lose the signature file. See #1 tip. Sig file is the easiest way to be pinned for spamming, especially if your link has absolutely nothing to do with the question at hand, and you post the same link again and again in your answers. It’s the quickest way for your account to be suspended (and yes, YA also kicks out people, though you can easily create a new account).
3. Put your website/s information in your Profile page. YA allows users to promote their businesses in their profile. Use this to your advantage.
4. Be visible. The more visible you are, the more chances people are (a) going to check out your profile page; and (b) going to click on your website links in your answers or in your source boxes.
5. Provide the best answer — ALWAYS. Think of YA as your opportunity to present to potential target market that you are the best with what you do, or at least knowledgeable of your sector. They are more likely to check you out if they like what they read from your answers.
One more benefit of giving the best answers is increased visibility as you will start climbing up the category or subcategory, if not the country-specific or global leaderboards. Those leaderboards are great marketing tools as they represent the best in that category (however “best” is defined — best cheater, best answerer, best strategist). BAs mean 10 points, so getting more BAs can help you go up the leaderboards much faster compared to the 2 points of just giving out answers.
6. Come to YA with a strategy. One common tactic, especially of those with incredibly high best answer percentage is to answer only questions with 0 response and then voting for their own answer, thereby guaranteeing that they get the Best Answers (not that I do this).
Voting for your answer is not a violation (though YA at one point banned people from voting for their own answer but was quickly overturned). And answering questions with 0 answers is not a violation, either. These strategies are commonly frowned upon, but they are not considered to be against the rules.
So what is my strategy? I have a 150-page document of all my answers in YA. So if someone asks about angel investors, I have a ready answer that I can paste. If someone asks about what is Adsense, I also have a ready answer for that. I even have 10 variations on “getting a grant” type of question — for Qs on grants for school, grants for non profits, grants for starting a business, even getting grants for felons. I can provide my answers fast, just slightly modifying the response based on the actual question. On lazy days, I simply search for questions — e.g. business plan — and then pasting my pre-prepared response. Some users don’t like it, but hey, my response answers the questions and that’s all that matters!
7. Vote for your own answers. As I previously said, YA allows you to vote for your own answer. If you think you answered the best, why will you allow someone who answered “Google it!” or “I don’t know” win out over your well-thought out answer? It doesn’t make sense. Give your answers a fighting chance by taking time to review all Qs in voting and vote for your own answer. Given that askers rarely come back and choose the BA, you stand a high chance of getting BAs for your answers.
8. Protect your account. Yes, there’s a lot of trolls in YA and competitors who want to sabotage your account. If you don’t protect yourself, you’ll find yourself getting lots of Violation Notices. I even got a VN for spamming because I directed the user to the SBA.gov website!
I used to have my account open to the public so anyone and everyone can read and learn from my answers. After someone went over my responses and voting for No Best Answer (if NBA wins, the Q will be deleted) even if I and the other respondents gave on-target answers. So now, I protect my account by:

• Keeping my account private.
• I don’t accept fans — unless I know and trust them. I used to have 500+ fans, but I removed all of them.

9. Increase your reporting trust level. Part of #8, but deserves a thorough discussion. YA’s community moderation system allows users to file an abuse report for any violations they see or perceive on the site — from spamming, solicitation, malicious codes, violence or threats, fraud, and others.
The more you report abuses correctly, the higher your reporting trust level and the faster you can delete content in YA. In less than 2 minutes sometimes, you’ll have the instant gratification of seeing your reported content to be removed from YA (to prevent abuse, they allow only 5 instant deletions from that same user, then your reports go to Yahoo customer care or YA staffers). Go after the very obvious spammers — those who post their blogspot link with no other answer, the credit/loan solicitation — as the abuse reports are likely to stick and they are not likely to defend their answers.
Another benefit of reporting correctly — and increasing your trust level — is that it becomes harder for anyone to report your content and delete it immediately from YA. You need this protection so that others, with lower trust ranking than you, cannot remove your answers by themselves.
10. Read, and re-read the Community Guidelines. Follow the rules, and you will have more opportunities to market your business to YA users. Read the Suggestion Forum as well for some tips from oldtimers on how to navigate YA.

3 Way (Three Way) Link Building Service

One way to improve the ranking your website receives in a search and to bring more visitors to your site is a method known as 3 way link building. This is a somewhat more complicated system than other link building methods, but it is also the most effective of them all and worth whatever it takes to set up. It also has the advantage of being accepted by search engines, unlike the other link building methods which are no longer being calculated into the results of a search.

In order to start a 3 way link building concept for your website, you will have to know what that is in the first place. For starters, you will need to have three participating websites that all link back to one another. For example, you have website A and give your link to a similar website B that then passes their link onto website C, which then in turn sets up your link which leads right back to your website A. As long as this cycle is not broken, it will work with any search engine and will not be classified as a two way link, even though the outcome is the same and higher search rankings and more traffic is the result. In fact, more traffic will probably be the result because a total of 3 websites will be linked with one another and the more websites involved, the more traffic there will be.

In order to make 3 way link building work for your website, you will have to compile a list of sites that have subject matter relevant or similar to what is on yours. Once you have this list you should contact them, either through an email or even by calling them up should they have a contact number available. Ask them if they are interested in 3 way linking, since they will have to provide their link to another website that will have to post a link back to you. Some sites have sister sites or partners that they work with, and that would be the best place to start. When looking for sites to take part in 3 way link building with you, also do a search and see which are the top ranked websites in your field and then take a look at their link section. It is a good tactic to have those websites participate in 3 way looking, because that is the fastest and most efficient way to improve your own traffic and search ratings. Sometimes the successful sites sell links, this can be done, but make sure that they understand the conditions.

In order to make a 3 way link building system work for you, you will have to do some research and asking around in order to find willing partners. Once this is done, you will have to check on the links for the other two websites and also do what you can to attract people to your site and not rely on others completely.

LINK WHEELS: HOW TO MAKE THEM WORK FOR YOU

As most of you are aware, the Web nowadays is the top place to sell a service or product.  If truth be told most of the information on the Internet is focused towards marketing in some fashion.  This is terrific if you want to market a product or service.  For example, many bands and singers are getting noticed because of the Internet.  Youtube is a great place for promoting all kinds of products and services.  Some bands and singers have become quite well-known of Youtube. 

With new social networking sites popping all the time, like Twitter, MySpace, Facebook, Friendster and so on, there are never-ending ways to advance your website.  You can brand your product or service easier today than ever before.  Perhaps you only want to improve your Page Rank (PR), or you would want to show up on the first page of Google.  Most people who are doing serious SEO are trying to achieve three things:

1.  Traffic to their website
2.  To make money.
3.  Brand their product or services

There are other reasons of course, but essentially it seems these are the most common reasons why website owners use money and time to publicize their website.

HISTORY OF INTERNET MARKETING AND ADVERTISING: A Brief Overview

The history of the Internet advertising could take up a 500 page book.  I simply want to talk about this briefly.  Fact, Internet Marketing has advanced in so many ways over the years.  There was a point in time when you constructed a website and there was no way of marketing it except to telling people where to find it.  There was no link building or blogging.  Your website simply sat there and there were few methods of marketing it.  In the true sense of the word you website was "static."  Ah yes, Google didn't exist and Netscape was the browser you used.

These days it can be a full time job promoting your website so it ranks satisfactory with Google.  Furthermore, Google has evolved over time.  I recollect when Google used to place a high importance on a static website.   Later on it changed and put a greater importance on blogs, forums and dynamic content.

Content of the Internet these days takes up something like 48 billion pages! Currently Google is being referred to as the Semantic Web.  This new Semantic Web is the current trend with Google's Web 3.0 which is centered on Thematic or Latent Behavioral Indexing.  Sounds a little technical but it is actually simple to understand.  Wikipedia notes that with the latest infrastructure of the Internet Google can assimilate innovative ways of searching and indexing the web in a more broad method.  Google's new 3.0  algorithm will be able to determine the reputation and authority (possibly beyond the link graph and what's normally viewed as Page Rank).  Some sense that this more complex search should to return superior significant results more rapidly, however according to Matt Cutts this is not the reason for the current transition into Web 3.0.  Cutts explains that the key aspect of this new algorithm is mainly concentrated on the credibility of websites and where they should be placed in the search engines.
At this time, Google's new "Web 3.0 algorithm is not completely implemented yet.  It is valuable to glance at one Search Engine Optimization (SEO) techniques that has been around for a long time and will remain to be a worthwhile aspect of SEO in the future.

BACK LINK BUILDING FOR YOUR WEBSITE FOR GREATER VISABILITY ON THE INTERNET: Link Wheels Strategy Explained

It is common practice for website owners to purchase back links. Or, you can hire somebody to do your back linking. While this can be a worthwhile thing to do it repeatedly falls short of the promises made by deceitful so called SEO experts. Why? Well most back link service providers purchase their links and sell them to you. It is frequently easier for them to do this than to search for excellent back links.

What lots of people don't take in consideration is, these back links repeatedly contain no anchor text and are in the wrong categories or themes. Agreed, these links will advance your website but be aware that this increase in position will be short lived. In the end, you will become conscious that cash you used on this type of link building is ineffective. Fact is, Google recognizes these links are from paid linking directories and they take their credit back for those links subsequent to their bot or spider has scanned your website a few times.

LINK WHEELS THE TROUBLE FREE WAY TO GENERATE MASSIVE BACK LINKS TO YOUR WEBSITE

Plain Link Wheels are structured comparable to a bicycle wheel. Link wheels are prepared by means of a hub and spokes. Moreover, all of these spokes and the hub are made with Web 2.0 properties. Each spoke (Web 2.0 property), is linked jointly in a rounded shape and each spoke goes to the hub. The hub can be another Web 2.0 property or your website. If your hub is one more Web 2.0 property you would want to link that to your website. 

 

 

Fundamentally the strength in link wheels is determined by the Web 2.0 properties used.
To review, all of your spokes would be linked together in a circular style to each other. These links would only be in a one way direction. As well, each spoke would be linked to your hub. Next your hub would link to your website (if you used a Web 2.0 property).
Link wheels can be constructed in many ways. You are only restricted by your imagination. Nonetheless, many SEO Specialists fail to tell you is that you can take advantage of almost any Web 2.0 property in a link wheel. Here are a few that you can examination:

Video creation and posting to Youtube. Place your video in each blog. Upload your video to additional video hosting sites.

Writing articles and submitting them to article directories like GoArticles or Ezinearticles. Link the articles to your properties.

Make the most of the profile in your Facebook, Friendster or MySpace account by leaving the URL of your property, hub or website.

Give tips and provide information on sites like Ehow and Wikipedia make sure to place your URL in the profile page.

Use Squidoo Lenses. Have one key page and do 4 additional on your subject (5 pages in total). Build up your Squidoo lens and get people to remark on it to make it a dofollow. Link them to other properties in your wheel and to your hub or website.

Make use of blogs like Blogger.com. Blogger.com is similar to Squidoo. Write a long article and get comments on your blog to make it a dofollow. Link it to one property and to your hub.

Be careful, that all link wheels have got to be created with dofollow web 2.0 properties. Properties like Squidoo are initially nofollow. You have to attain a specific standing with Squidoo to make it a do follow. You need to build your lens at the beginning and acquire the points required to begin with before you include it into your link wheel. If not, you will be working with a broken link wheel with no juice!

All of the content above is meant as a short overview of how to promote a product or service using link wheels. I tried to make it uncomplicated however in reality the procedure is more complicated and extremely time consuming. That been said, if link wheels are constructed precisely they can have massive effects on your SERPS can drive huge amounts of traffic and back links to your website.

Make sure that if you decide to make use of the services of an SEO expert to create Link Wheels ask them some crucial questions about link wheels and how they construct them. Without a doubt, if a link wheel is done properly it will go on as long as you want it. Moreover, with just modest maintenance they will continue to guide that traffic to your website without end. The key to success with link wheels is to take time and do them properly the first time.
