    Points are what you need to level up, they have no value other than asking and leveling up..

    To get points and level up....Asking a question costs you 5 points so It is better to answer than ask.

    Answer your daily limit and give good answers to increase your chances of getting best answer.

    There are daily limits at every level.

    Level 1 can answer 20 questions a day and ask 5 questions.

    At level 2 (250 points) the limits are answering 80 questions and ask 10.

    Avoid answering questions with a lot of answers already.

    Do not answer questions with a best answer already or post an answer to your own questions....0 Points for that.

    Choose a best answer for your question +3, any time after 1 hour of posting your question.

    Have your answer selected as the best answer +10

    Receive a "thumbs-up" rating on a best answer that you wrote before being chosen as best (up to 50 thumbs-up are counted) +1 per "thumbs-up"

    You can take the Guidelines Quiz and get 20 points when you pass, (one time only) that will help you know better what is allowed.

    /info/community_guideline...

    Save 3 Yahoo searches and get 20 points

    Just know, if you receive a violation notice, it is -10 points and Appeal a violation and lose another 10 points is lost.
