Question and Answer Sites like Yahoo! answers can really helpful in gaining more visitors and sometimes online sales / leads through your answers and suggestions. That's my experience.

My client's have got a lot from Yahoo! answers.

Yahoo answers is a joke. I go there when I want a good laugh. Most of the people that both ask and answer are brain dead, and obviously predominantly kids.

Sorry mit, i do not agree that yahoo answers can give any good conversion in terms of sale.

you can surely get a rush of traffic from there, but conversion are really very poor. that's my experience.

Social conversation, Social interactive can deliver a good result on your site.. It may never consider as spam because of the interaction with other member.

conversion is not always everything, traffic should also be there in priority.

Hi,

I have also noticed that pages are ranking well in SERP but you need to go frequently on yahoo answer and answer the question with proper resource link to promote your website.
