I’d never heard of Quora before, thanks for the heads up! Maybe it will have some SEO use in 2013…

I’m not buying the Yahoo! Q/A comparison. Every answer I get from Yahoo! is craptastic. There is no way to screen the decent answers from the teeiebop blerts that seem to show up. I’d liken it a bit more to LinkedIN Q/A, which can be very good indeed.

If Quora’s responses are better, people will use it – and the 1% who participate as answerers could reap some reputation boosts.

If Im understanding this correctly, Quora is another site just like Yahoo Answer…and I never got what I considered an answer on Yahoo. Losts of rhetoric and garbage but never anything concrete to say “Yes, I went to Yahoo Answer and they gave me the answer” If Quora is like that then I dont understand all the hoopla about it. Its going to be just like Yahoo, a waste of time.

Telegraph thinks it’s going to be bigger than Twitter while some established bloggers think Quora will be bigger than Foursquare. I guess it depends on whether your target are professionals but if you target teens, you better be staying in Twitter where an invite isn’t required.

If you’re into building relationships and letting people know you’re an expert on a specific field, Quora might be the place for you as it showcases people’s opinions in the most well researched manner.

As tad said, quora is another Q and A site like yahoo, formspring & many other there online. I also think that it’ll never toppled yahoo answers. Till now I have not seen any rankings of quora on google search engine for any keyphrase, but yes there are some original content being shared by some reputed seo expertise which we hardly see in yahoo answers. And we’ll definitly see someone with testing on quora for seo ranking.

Thanks.

Quora is the Mixx of Q&A sites: It will never topple Yahoo Answers. It will only find a niche audience at most. I’d use it in a legit way to prove your expertise. Rand Fishkin does it the right way but of course he has a team of people who provide quality content on his own site so he can spread his around content greedy social media.
Treat Quora like other social sites as a gateway to our own one. You wouldn’t give up your shop for newspapers either in the old days.
