Quora is a popular question-and-answer site with 80 million unique visitors. Questions are asked, answered, edited and organized by its community of users. Quora requires users to register with their real names rather than a screen name. The site is essentially unusable if a user is not logged in and using cookies. Quora has turned into an interesting platform to gain exposure, generate leads, and ranks very high for many semantic long tail queries on search engines.
Effective users can follow topics related to their business and receive email notifications when someone posts a new question. Taking the time to craft a thoughtful response by using same strategies in creating high-value, long-form content can boost your viewership. Over time, third-party listings such as these can contribute to high quality organic inbound traffic precisely because they offer the best user experience for that particular situation or topic.
