Go to the question.  Not all questions are open to voting on a best answer.  The asker decides whether to accept votes or not.

Please inform me how to do that when you know the answer.

In my opinion, I think a best answer should not only include a correct answer to the question, but also an explanation, or further information about the topic.  I also think it is helpful for you to include a source that has more information about the topic, not just a dictionary page, or something similar.  Hope this helps!

When a question is resolved, people rate the best answer chosen no matter it is chosen by asker or voters. You have to rate first though to see the result of others' rating, unless it is your own question.

Not really. I always look through all the answers I've gotten and chose the best one. However, I do wish we could pick more than one best answer! There's been quite a few times that I've had a horrible time choosing!♥

Was it put to a vote, or did the asker choose a best answer?  \n\nIf it came to a vote, vote on the answer you think is best, and then come back when the question is resolved, and in the "comments" section, put your answer.\n\nIf the asker chose a best answer, go add your comment now.

go into your answers account and then look at the questions you answered. if the person who asked the question said it was the best answer, then you'd get an e-mail. if it's not the best answer, then you really have no way of knowing whether or not the other person found it helpful.

take a moment to think about your answer. if possible, try to rephrase the question into a statement while answering. this gives you time to think of the answer while reassuring that you have understood the question properly. answer to the best of your ability. if it's possible, give an example of how you have used what they are asking in the past.
