As everyone know that Yahoo is the 2nd popular Search Engine after Google. But everyone seem to focus on getting traffic to your blog or Squidoo lens from Google. How about Yahoo? This is one of the Search Engine every blogger should target on!!
I am going to show you the method that I been using for the past 4 months on my works with a particular lens from Squidoo. As you can see from the screen shot below, I am getting about 1010 hits from Yahoo for the past 30 days!
How to make that happen? It is very simple and absolute FREE - “Yahoo Answers”. That is the way to bring traffic to you blog and Squidoo Lens. When you do a search in Yahoo, you can see lot of “Yahoo Answers” post in the top 20 search results. That because, “Yahoo Answers” is a product of Yahoo, they have to “promote” their product!! So, if you participate in the “Yahoo Answers”, you will get your blog or Squidoo Lens expose to the rest of world without paying a single cents.
Just follow the steps below.
1. Create few Yahoo accounts just for Yahoo Answers.
2. Search for Questions that related to your products/services or topics that related to you blog and Squidoo Lens.
3. Answer the question by provide decent Answer. NOT SPAMMING.
4. Leave your blog or Squidoo Lens URL in your answer.
Is this difficult, NO!! BUT a lot of people can’t make anything out of it for two reasons.
1. They are not persistent on doing it regularly. Remember that there is no overnight success, you have to put in the effort to see the return. If you can spend 3 hours per weeks, you can see the results in one months time.
2. They spam the Yahoo Answers. Yahoo is very particular on SPAMMING, they will stop your account in participating of “Yahoo Answers” if you have violate their rules!! no negotiation!!! I was being classified as SPAMMER once, but I am getting obligated to the rules, and I have an accounts at Level 3 (The higher the level you are, the better for people believe to your answer, OF COURSE IT HAVE TO MAKE SENSE).
p/s : Making passive online income is your 2nd job, and you just have to put in your efforts as the same as your full-time day job.

Hi ,alanchansg
Thanks for sharing. This is a good tactic.

Thanks for the suggestion about Yahoo Answers. I have made a few posts there but it’s been a long time. Sound like I need to get busy and do some posting there. It’s kind of fun and easy to do, especially if it will bring traffic to my blog.
Hi,
I actually knew about this method even before reading your blog. Trust me, it doesn’t work. Most of the traffic comes from freebie seekers, casual surfers….I mean, it’s not every day a prospective customer goes to yahoo answers, then sees your answer, clicks on your link, and ends up making a purchase. Traffic is possible, yes. But sales? I highly doubt it.
Warmly,
Suresh
