on 9/28/2009 STEP ONE do NOT ADVERTISE on Yahoo Answers.

DO NOT TRY TO USE YAHOO ANSWERS to drive traffic to your E-how pages (or blog or website).

Yahoo calls that "solicitation", and it is taken as seriously as simple spamming. It WILL lead to your account being suspended and all your content wiped.

Some people who persisted found even their ISP accounts suspended.

Even if you don't do it on every answer, they will get you for it. Doesn't matter how good the answer is, either. If you are driving traffic they will drive you out. It is a site for answers, not free advertising.
