yahoo answers is similar to the site CHA CHA.com you post on yahoo answers with questions that you have and others in the community or experts will answer them and give you proof of what you need to answer your question. I like it and use it quite frequently. Sometimes you can find some good experts on there as well. Been using yahoo for 15 years now so I think I would know.

On Yahoo Answers, you can only get points and fun. The rules are not tight for which people cant write a one line answer to a random question asked by another Yahoo answers user and still receive points from it. I, however, use the site for gaining traffic to my articles. For this, I search questions that are relevant to my articles. I write an answer to them and place the link under it for the questioner to know more about it or as a proof what I wrote. For a few years, Yahoo kept this as illegal. But currently, they stated in their TOS that we can do this to attract visitors to our site. But no marketing content like "buy this and that" is allowed. It still gets reported because there are affiliated marketers who try to spam their forums.

When answering questions in Yahoo! answers, you can post links to helpful and relevant websites or articles that you may own/have. By driving more traffic to sites you make money with, the more profit you can make. Article sites work best with yahoo answers because they have specific relevant answers.

Yahoo answer is a forum launched by Yahoo where a member asks a question and the other members answer it. This is all I know about yahoo answer.

I have never used YAhoo answers although but i an tell you that if you have got a BLog or any website which you want to promote then just try yahoo answers search for the questions in your blog/website niche and then answer the questions with your website links. You will get much traffic to your website and if you have a online web store then who know people will buy some stuff from there too. As we all know Visitors = Money

Yahoo Answer is a site for asking questions and get answers. There are many such Q&A sites on the internet.Some of the sites give monetary benefit to the participants. But 'Yahoo Answers'is not a money earning program. Instead it provide back links to the participant's site or blog, which is most valuable thing for getting rank to the sites or blogs.
