I agree. Don't read too much into Yahoo comments. Most of the people there are troll and hate mongers.

Some obvious tips - You should add a couple of links to your site from the articles you send to Yahoo.

These links should point to a post with affiliate links in them. 

For example you probably could have made a few sales with Quicken Loans if you point the Yahoo traffic to a page on your site with more info. 

Targeted traffic is great for affiliate sales. 

 

Thanks! I was allowed the one link in the bio, but will barter for more in the future.

 

As for pageviews, let's just say it was what Sam probably sees on a slow day ;)

That's great, man. Congrats.

I explored the Yahoo! contributor network when I first started blogging, but then I was anonymous. If I remember correctly, you have to give them your real name and I wasn't up for that at the time. 

Yup, had to give them my real name.

It was quite the ride yesterday. Got like 50 emails asking for ReFi help, some people who hated my article, and almost 300 comments on the article, half of which were pretty mean. But hey, it's the internet on a big scale, and hate just means I'm doing something right :)
