Back Links from Yahoo Answers

When the basic steps of onsite optimization are done, your website or blog needs quality back link. Easy to say but hard to get. I always start with back links from yahoo answers. This is the easiest option for me, and for other webmasters, for having quality back links pointing to your blog post or website.

For the people who don’t know what yahoo answers is, I shall explain it shortly. Yahoo answers is a service from yahoo (duh?), where people can post a question, and people who know the answer on that question, can post an answer. Within this answer form it is possible to put a link to some informational blog post or website content. With answering questions of other people you can receive back links from yahoo answers for free.

Well isn’t this spamming? You should ask me? NO! If you are writing good content on your webpage/blog, and people are having questions about that particular subject you made a post on your blog or website, then it is very good information for people who want to know more about the subject you are writing about.

Within yahoo answers it is possible to search for a question. So if my blog post is about keyword research, and I search on the keyword : seo (which is the main subject). Than yahoo answers will show me a list of question about seo. Than I browse trough the questions, searching for someone, who wants to know more about keyword research or having a question about it.

For this blog where you are reading on at the moment, I also searched for some seo questions on yahoo answers, who where still open to answer. I posted 3 answers on 3 different question, with a back link (from yahoo answers) to my seo blog. See here:

1. Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) Tools | Search Engine Marketing?
2. If u have an Experience in SEO?????
3. Can any body tell me list of seo processes?

Voila you see, I have free back links which are quality too. This is completely ethical and definitely white hat seo. You help people with their questions, and you are having some nice backs link from answers. Maybe you even get some daily blog or website readers.
