Dear Friends,

I wonder if you’ve heard of this website http://answers.yahoo.com/ Well, if you haven’t, it’s a good place where you can get answers from people around the world. You get to ask almost anything that catches your interest there ;-)

So if you’re already a member of this website, what is the best way to earn points? I think if you’re the first person to answer a question, you’ll get 2 points, and when you’re the 2nd person onwards, you get 1 points for each question answered.. however, if your answer is selected as the best answer, then you receive another 10 points… Well, so now you have it, try to be the Best Answer for each question that you answered and it’ll be the best way to earn points there ;-) also, try using the words from the question in your answer.. I think it’ll help you’ll get additional 1 point. 

Enjoy your question and answer at http://answers.yahoo.com/ :-D

Points and Levels

To encourage participation and reward great answers, Yahoo! Answers has a system of points and levels. The number of points you get depends on the specific action you take. The points table below summarizes the point values for different actions. While you can’t use points to buy or redeem anything, they do allow everyone to recognize how active and helpful you’ve been. (And they give you another excuse to brag to your friends.)
