If you do not know what is Quora, then let me explain it to you first.

Quora is an online question and answer website, where anyone can ask questions or write answers for the existing ones. By March 2016, it has over 100 million monthly active users.

I have been quite active on Quora for over last two years. I’m also a top writer on many of the trending topics. This is a great platform to read new stuff and contribute by writing useful answers. Moreover, unlike facebook/twitter where people are in a ‘scroll down’ mode, the audience specifically visit Quora to read. Therefore, if you are writing awesome answers, it’s really easy to reach a huge audience.

(Btw, here’s my Quora profile. Feel free to follow.)

For the past 2 years, I’ve been consistently writing 5–10 answers on Quora weekly. The number of answers may be a little higher on the holidays and maybe even ZERO during a hectic week. Nevertheless, these answers on Quora has helped me to drive a lot of traffic to my blog. I regularly receive messages from different people that they checked my blog after reading one of my answers and totally loved my contents afterward.

Besides, unlike Facebook, Twitter or Instagram, where a post fades away within a few hours, Quora answers remains alive for a very long time. There are many of my answers which I’ve written about two years back, but still, they are driving a lot of views and traffic to my blog- even today. In addition, the answers on Quora creates a snowball effect. With time, all the answers add up to drive even a bigger traffic to your blog.

In short, you can drive an insane amount of traffic from Quora if you are little consistent and your answers are genuinely helpful.

Why Quora Works the Best for Indians to Drive Traffic?

If you follow any of popular digital marketing blogs (mostly run by American or European marketers), you’ll find them saying that you can drive a huge traffic from Reddit, Pinterest or Tumblr.

But in actual, this is not true for the Indian bloggers or marketers. The Indian crowd on these portals are very limited and hence you won’t be able to drive a much-targeted audience to your website/blog (from India), no matter how much active you are on those platforms. Moreover, if you are writing contents for the Indian audience, then getting traffic from outside regions using Reddit/Tumblr won’t be much helpful and will just increase the bounce rate. That’s why it’s not worth your time spending on those portals.

On the other hand, the participation of Indian population is a lot high on Quora. Just check the Quora page and you’ll find tons of contents written/asked by Indians. And that’s why, if you’re planning to get a targeted audience from India, Quora is a great platform to start with.

Quick Note: Few other social media platforms like Facebook, Twitter etc have also a very high participation of Indians. However, the organic reach of posts on these platforms is comparatively a way lower. Therefore, unless you are ready to run the paid advertisements or boost your FB posts, your content won’t reach a bigger audience.


How to drive traffic to your blog from Quora?

Driving traffic to your blog from Quora is pretty straightforward. Simply answer the questions related to the posts published on your blog and include relevant links in the answers whenever required.

(WARNING: DO NOT SPAM OR ADD IRRELEVANT LINKS ON YOUR ANSWERS OR ELSE YOU WILL BE BANNED FROM QUORA. For example, if the questions are asking about football, then do not write a useless irrelevant answer and insert a link to your blog which contains contents on Hollywood (just to get traffic). There are many moderators on quora and they will definitely ban you for spamming).

Another important point is mention is- “Do not copy and paste exact answer from your blog” as it will lead to plagiarism (duplication) and your answer will be deleted. While answering the questions, change the words of the answer to make it little different from your original blog post or write another genuine answer in your own words (Avoid entire copying of content). Read more about Quora plagiarism policy here.

Now, let me explain how you can write an answer on Quora- in the right way.

Assume there’s a question on Quora asking- “How to save money in college?”. If your blog is related to personal finance and you have written a similar blog post on which you want to drive traffic, then you can answer this question. Here’s what you need to do.

Write a comprehensive answer for how you can save money in college is your own words. Do not copy exactly from your blog. And in the middle or end (wherever you feel more relevant)- include the link to your relevant blog post. If your answer is useful to the readers, they will definitely check out the link to read more about the answer. And hence, you’ll drive traffic to your blog.

The key to driving huge traffic is that your answer should be super helpful and the links should be relevant. By doing so, people will click on the link to read even more useful content in your blog post in detail. And maybe if they find your content awesome, they will also share the answer and the blog post with their friends. Overall, you can get multiple benefits by writing an amazing answer on Quora.
