Guide to Driving Traffic to Your Site through Quora

Here are some tips to help you drive traffic to your site with Quora:

1. Set up a Profile

Quora can help you engage with your users to discover new insights and grow your business. It’s also a safe space to share anything on the platform so you can build trust with other users.

Business owners, experts, and anyone with a good blog or website can immediately benefit from Quora. It’s been more successful than ever due to its focus on individuals looking for better ways to differentiate themselves online through social media.

Your about page should contain important information such as your interests, the cities you serve, schools you went to, etc. You also want to express examples of where your knowledge & experience is a good match for potential clients.

Here are a few tactics you must keep in mind when crafting your bio:

  • Make sure it’s understandable and that if you have a website, people can find it.
  • It should also include what you have to offer and proof that you do so.

Great training, Lily!
I do want to point out that certain spaces have their own rules, and that any links may be regarded as spam and Quora will delete your comment. I have had that a couple of times, and although I appealed their decision because the comment I left did not fall under their 'Spam' rules, they denied my appeal.

Other than that, setting up your 'Space' is important, just like when creating any profile. You can post your website URL in your profile, yet be careful where and how you direct traffic back to your link and/or website.

I have been using Quora for about a year, Lily. It is a great platform for bloggers to find inspiration. However, I did notice if you put a link in Quora to drive traffic back to your website, your post will be removed immediately. I think it is a new stricter policy :(
Any way, I still like Quora to get inspired.

I posted on Quora about 5 days ago and I notice on top of the page it says you can post your website url at the bottom. (I did that.) Hopefully, they didn't remove my page.

I do think that they have changed the rules.
Let us know if they give you the boot. Lol

I have just posted an answer in Quora with my website URL link at the footnote. I'm waiting to see if they are going to remove me again lol. So far so good, Lily.

This is great, Lily! I've been on Quora for probably a year or two now, but I never thought of using it to grow a business.

If you answered this question in your lesson, please excuse me for missing it. But are affiliate links permissible on Quora?

Also, in lesson 4, you say "You should also consider answering questions where the audience has many followers, but the total number is limited." Can you please clarify what you mean when you say "the total number is limited."?

Thank you for this helpful information!

Hi Margaret,
Each place where you answer questions has its own rules. So links in response to a query are usually ok but are careful, they must be very relevant to the question asked.
Take note of how usual answers are posted.

I've updated that section on lesson 4 to be a better explanation.

Warm regards,
Lily 😁🎶
