How to Use Yahoo Answers to drive targeted traffic to websites
My web sites receive visitors from many different sources including article directories, forums, blogs and search engines. But some of the best traffic I receive is from a source most people do not take full advantage Yahoo Answers. Because traffic from Yahoo Answers better than many of the methods of traffic out there? Because its usually very much targeted traffic and converts like gangbusters!
Think about it. If someone is going to Yahoo Answers and ask questions about a topic because it means that they need. Now may be just a curiosity that need fulfilling. But more times than not having a problem that needs fixing. And if you position yourself as an expert who can help solve their problem then you can get to visit your website, subscribe to the newsletter, or buy the product.
You can actually pull this off pretty easily because these are visitors who are already in the mood to buy, or at least are very close to it. To ask a question on YA have already shown that they are willing to take action to solve their problem. It does not take much more of a nudge to get them to take the desired action.
For example, suppose you have a web site that analyzes the different types of hardware and software. You see someone asking a question about removing spyware. They're getting lots of pop-ups and their computer is slow, because its infested with spyware. They want to clean your computer, but do not know what is the best program to use.
Since you are an expert in this niche you can give them some tips to keep your computer from spyware. You can also warn that many of the free spyware removers available are actually scams that actually install spyware themselves. Then, as the source leave a link to a page on your site that discusses and compares spyware removal. Now, anyone with a problem of spyware will read your response useful and visit your site for more information on how to clean your computer.
This is the laser targeted traffic straight to your site where you can easily convert into sales! ......
