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.)

They make you lose 5 points, so keep them sparse. Second, make sure that you answer 20 questions a day and vote for 20 best answers a day. Make sure that the answers that you post could potentially become best answers, as you get 10 points for a best answer.

Answer to your limit each day - 2 points each answer - 20 answers - 40 points

Hope for some best answers - 10 points each best answer plus 1 point for every thumbs up on a best answer (maximum 50 points)

Vote to your limit each day - 1 point each vote - 20 votes - 20 points

If you ask a question, -5 points, pick a best answer, you get 3 points back.

Visiting each day, and answering and voting to your limit each day can gain you a possible 61 points before counting any best answers you may receive.
