@fasttrak posted a neat Quora hack here using ahrefs to find the best questions to answer.

If you don't have ahrefs, there's a simpler way to find Quora questions in your niche that you can get easy traffic from.

Google this string:

Code: 
site:quora.com keyword "1 answer" "view 1 upvoter" "k views"

But substitute "keyword" for your general niche, for example baseball:

You'll get a list of Quora questions in your niche, with at least 1,000 views, and only 1 answer with a single upvote.

How do you use this trick?
  • Write a better answer to the questions and get yourself 2 upvotes to become the top answer
  • Write a post on your blog that answers the question, and link to it from your Quora answer
This method helps you achieve 3 things:
  • Build relevant backlinks from Quora
  • Drive relevant referral traffic from Quora
  • Get popular content ideas for posts you can easily rank for on Google
Have fun with it :D

Cool trick, found a few good questions already :P
 
Great tip I wish I had known this when I was in QPP I would have made a lot more.
 
Thanx for the share! You could use after and before operator in order to filter by date more precisly as @FatBee said :)
 
Another tip to add to this... Use the time filter on google and set it to past year so you get high traffic links :p 1k views from an answer that was written 5 years ago isn't really that great.

Thanks for this.

You can also use this filter to spice the things up if you are lucky. Imagine grabbing 2 days old post with 10k Views and 1 answer :D

Got shared already by FatBee :p:p:p . Lots of great folks on BHW.
 
Thanks for your trick. I have a question: This trick can be applied to non-english?
 
Looks like a good way to get some traffic and this makes it independent of ahrefs. Great share seocrab. Btw only five away from elite status, get it.
 
this is gold indeed and we here are gold diggers :D

Thanks for the share.
 
Thanks for the share OP! Purely creative thinking. We can even pay original poster of existing answer to remove his answer :p:p

Also, do you know any such operator for reddit?

Same here, only get results in major niches like baseball and most of the times the questions are not the ones you are looking for when you market something, and for me, it is to much trouble for just a view no-follow links and untargeted trickle traffic (there is a reason why it only has such a low number of engagements in the first place) but maybe a n00b can use it to start of a site/blog
