How to Get Traffic from Quora to Your Website in 2025
Do you want to become popular on Quora? Do you want to use Quora to increase your website traffic? Or do you want to boost your online sales? Hereโs what you need to know about raising on Quora starting from scratch.

Define your goals for Quora
The first step is to define your goals for Quora. What do you really want from Quora? Why are you going to use it?
Here are few questions that can simplify the process of goal setting for Quora.
- Do you want more traffic to your site from Quora?
- Do you want to increase your website sales?
- Do you want to get noticed online?
- Do you want to brainstorm new blog post ideas?
- Would you like to connect with other bloggers on Quora?
Once you determine the goals to achieve from Quora, you can develop a solid strategy to maximize its benefits. Otherwise, if youโre just getting started without defining your goals, youโll use it for a few days and go back to normal stuff. So define your goals.
Find your target audience
Finding the target audience can be hard for other platforms, but not for Quora as itโs extremely easy to define your target audience so you can serve them better by providing great answers.
Letโs assume you mostly talk about SEO You can simply start finding your target audience by typing that keyword or topic into Quora search.
The people whoโve both asked and answered these questions fall within your target audience. So simple, isnโt it?
Make sure to enter more related keywords or the topics you want to target to find more people who are interested in those particular topics. Once youโre done with it, itโs time for you to understand your target audience’s wants and needs.
Here are a few questions you need to ask yourself to know your target audience’s needs.
- What my target audience is asking?
- What problems are they facing?
- What do they really want?
So there you go. Once you figure out your target audience along with their needs, you can serve them better with your answers on Quora.
Choose your questions smartly
Do you want to quickly increase your answer views on Quora, fetch more upvotes and get a ton of new followers?
Then try to pick questions with the most followers.
Yes, thatโs the trick in choosing questions on Quora smartly if you really want to get more upvotes, views, comments, followers and so on.
Thereโs a caveat with it. Since youโre picking โpopular questions with most followersโ to answer, youโll find a ton of interesting and most useful answers on the particular threads already.
Thatโs why itโs going to be a challenge for you.
So make sure to give the BEST possible answer you can.
Otherwise, thereโs no advantage to picking questions with the most followers because even if you get more views for your questions, no one is going to upvote if your answers are not helpful to them. Itโs as simple as that.
Make Your Quora Profile & Credentials Count
If you are wondering about how you can stand out from other answers on Quora, here are few simple yet most effective tips for you.
Add unique and proper credentials for each topic: Quora allows you to show credentials right next to your profile name whenever you post an answer. It gives other people on Quora (including your followers) an idea about your expertise.
Hereโs what it looks like;
Use your own picture and create an interesting bio: Once youโre done with the registration on Quora, upload your own picture and make sure to create an interesting bio that makes other people read and click on any links you provide.
Ensure that you include the following elements in your Quora bio.
- Try to include your professional experience (blogging experience or your previous experience, skills you possess, and so on)
- Link to your blogs and social media profiles, such as Facebook, Twitter, and so on, that your Quora followers can easily connect with you on social media
- If youโve written guest posts for other sites, make sure to include them, as it helps you build social proo,f which works like a charm
- Include your best answers on Quora (which attracted more upvotes, comments, and so on)
Promote your products strategically to increase sales
Fortunately, Quora allows you to sell almost anything, be it your own products or affiliate products, as you can easily add links within your Quora answers.
However, hereโs the key: ensure that you promote your products strategically to increase sales. Here are a few quick tips to promote your affiliate products smartly on Quora.
Help before you sell: If you want to make money from Quora by selling your products, you first need to develop a mindset of โhelping first, selling nextโ. Donโt sell hard. Donโt self-promote. Instead, help people with your answers and try to find ways to include your products wherever they fit in naturally.
Use a proper ratio: There should a proper content to promotion ratio maintained on Quora if you want to promote your products strategically. You can maintain a 3:1 or 5:1 ratio (which means, for every 3 educational answers you write on Quora, you can write 1 promotional post that contains links to your products, such as affiliate links).
How to Write Quora Answers That Actually Deliver
Here are proven tips to get more views, replies, and followers without wasting time:
Tip | What to Do | Why It Works |
---|---|---|
1. Choose concise, relevant introductions | Hook people: Use a question, facts in a bullet list, or a short story | Grabs attention in a crowded feed |
2. Use subheadings, lists & short paragraphs | Break up big blocks of text so skimmers can follow | Better readability, more engagement |
3. Avoid overly saturated questions | If a question already has 100+ good answers, few readers will see yours | Less competition means higher visibility |
4. Include visuals | One image or infographic can make your answer stand out | Visual content draws more attention |
5. Give a strong closing with a clear next step | Summarize, include a CTA (โFollow me for moreโ, โSee my blog for detailsโ, etc.) | Encourages action and increases conversion |
How Do We Find Targeted Questions to Answer On Quora
Do you want to know how we pick Quora questions to answer? Picking the RIGHT questions to answer on Quora is the easiest way to get more followers, upvotes, views and so on.
So if youโre curious to find out the exact ways we follow to find targeted questions to answer on Quora, this section is exclusively for you.
Look for a Good Followers-to-Answers Ratio
One of the best ways to increase the number of upvotes for your Quora answer is to strike the right balance between followers and answers on Quora.
For instance, we donโt go for a question that has just 1 follower but already has 10 answers. But we prefer those questions that have 100 followers and just 25 answers.
Are you getting it?
Letโs show it with a real-time example on Quora.
We recently published an answer on Quora about the topic โHow much do you earn?โ
As you can see above, the question has 290 followers (that many people are following the question to get an answer), while it only has 78 answers, and the answer ended up getting 20.7K views and 109 upvotes.
So thatโs a great question to write a helpful answer because it not only has fewer answers but also more followers.
Suppose you can also go through our answer written for the above question. In that case, youโll notice that the answer has already generated over 1000 views (Quora publicly displays the view count for answers) within 24 hours after publishing it.
So pick those questions with fewer answers and more followers. Thatโs the key to finding great questions that will fetch you more upvotes, followers, comments, and views to your answers on Quora.
Study What Top Writers Answer
One of the easiest yet most powerful ways to find targeted questions to answer on Quora is to find the โAll Time Viewsโ answers section of the most viewed writers on Quora.
For example, Neil Patel is the 2nd most viewed writer under the topic โblogging,โ and when you go to his Quora profile and check on the โAll Time Viewsโ section, you can find a list of all the questions (along with his answers) that fetched a significant number of views.
Hereโs what it looks like;
As you can see above, itโs the easiest way to find useful questions on Quora to answer. Hereโs how you can replicate the same strategy.
- Pick a topic or two that youโre interested in answering on Quora
- Find the โMost Viewed Writersโ
- Visit all the top 10 most viewed writers’ Quora profiles and click on the โAll Time Viewsโ section
- Now, simply make a list of all the Quora questions that you want to answer
Target Quora Questions Ranking on Google
Did you know many Quora questions rank in Google search results? While Reddit shows up more often these days, Quora still holds its place on the first page.
When you search for something like โHow does SEO workโ or something that is relevant to you on Google, youโll see Quora questions (along with a few other questions on Quora, which are all related to that particular question).
By answering such types of Quora questions, youโll be able to increase the visibility of your Quora answers in search engines.
