Text-ads, image-ads, video-ads, promoted answers, lead-generation forms, and app-install ads are all available for savvy affiliates and media buyers.

Contextual (topics, keywords, questions), behavioral (interest, question history), and audience (lookalikes, website visitors).
A familiar structure for media buyers
Campaign → Ad set → Ad
All Quora campaigns have three layers: you budget at the campaign level, target in the ad set, and creatives at the ad level.
Platform transparency
Quora shows all the following metrics: Delivery, Impressions, Clicks, Cost per Click, Conversions, Conversion %, Spend, and Remaining Budget.

- Create your account on the Quora Ads platform.
- Set objective, budget, and schedule. You can advertise for Awareness, Traffic, Conversions, Lead Gen, or App Installs.
- Define your targeting. Use topic/keyword/question targeting for relevance, audience for scale. Exclude segments that cannibalize or waste spend.
- Set your bid. CPC, CPM, or CPA (Conversion Optimized, pay per impression).
- Design your ad creative. Follow specs: headline, body length, file size, etc. E.g., text ads: headline ≤ 65 chars, body ≤ 105 chars.
- Install the Quora Pixel on your site to make sure your users are on Quora, but also track conversions, retarget users, and measure ROI.
- Launch & optimise: Monitor your CPM/CPC, conversion rate. A/B test creatives, targeting buckets, and exclude non-performers.

Pros & Cons of Advertising on Quora
| Ups | Downs |
| Quality audience – reach users with high intent Multiple formats – play with various formats to match your audience Detailed targeting – reach the right audience at the perfect time Less noise than mega-platforms – usually a lot less crowded | You need strong creatives and landing pages – research-intent user expects value, relevance, and fast load. Cost-efficiency depends on offer, targeting, and optimisation – or you may get tons of leads, but no conversions. You’ll need to exclude junk segments and monitor conversions – not a set-and-forget. |
In other words, yes: ads on Quora can be worth it. But only if you treat it like performance, not just brand-lift.
