Easy ways to increase Alexa Rank
Tags: alexa, Blog, Blogging, rank, seoDo you see on my Alexa Widgets in the bottom of sidebar page? Yes, so what? You know, I’ve got increase my Alexa Rank +1800K points in less than 2 weeks. Before I’m doing this way, my Alexa Rank was about 2900K (three moths ago I’ve ranked 4177K). Now, you can see that my rank almost passed 1000K.
Here is “little secrets” to buzz your Alexa Rank.
Every of you must be well known about Alexa Rank. Especially if your blog earning most coming from paid post and paid click. Why? Because most of them (i.e. Sponsoredreviews, Reviewme, Blogsvertise, TLA, Adbrite, Chitika) has requirement to accepted blog with high ranked in Alexa, at least your Alexa Rank less than 2000K to get more opportunities in paid post program.
Basically, Alexa ranks sites based on visits from users of its Alexa Toolbar for Internet Explorer and from integrated sidebars in Mozilla Firefox and Netscape. In addition to their own statusbar extension, Sparky was released several third-party extensions for Mozilla Firefox on July 2007. As noticed on Wikipedia, in the middle of April 2008 many users reported the shifts of their Alexa rankings that were dramatic. Then Alexa confirmed this later with an announcement that they had released the “New Alexa Ranking System”. So that the old ways to raise rank in Alexa such as http://redirect.alexa.com/redirect?www.yourdomain.com will not worked anymore.
So, what must we do to gain high rank of Alexa? These are what I’ve do:
1. Because of Alexa measured according to the amount of users who’ve visited a website with the Alexa toolbar installed. Therefore, we must placed and installed Alexa toolbar on our browser. I’m using Firefox, so that I’ve installed Sparky Toolbar, other you can download the SearchStatus extension. If you use Internet Explorer, then you can install Alexa Toolbar from this page. For other browser just search on Google.
2. Set your website or blog as a homepage in your browser, so that every you open your browser, then automatically your website appears first.
3. Install Alexa widgets on your website or blog, even some people said that this is not much have impact to rank of Alexa, but it’s useful for webmaster and advertiser.
4. This is general ways, just active in several webmaster forums, such as Digital Point, do not forget to place link or signature of your site or pages, so people interested will visits to your site via your link or signature.
5. Being stumbled will bring you to receive tons of visitors in a day.
6. This is the step that I have been using these weeks, join on Entrecard. Actually, Entrecard is a free exchange widget program (see on my up right sidebar). Then it has become one of the best widget I think, which really works these days. Many people have enclosed their experiences with the widget, and tell how Entrecard brought them many traffic. For more about Entrecard, you can download their ebook here.
What is the relation of Entrecard with Alexa rank? Now, think this, Alexa only counted visitors which using Alexa Toolbar on their browser. If you get visitors from search engine, they may not have Alexa Toolbar. Who is using Alexa Toolbar? It should be Webmasters and Bloggers! You know, most of users signed in Entrecard are Bloggers! And you know, most of them placing Alexa Toolbars on their browser. Then you’ve got the point. Most of them will be counted by Alexa while they visit our blogs. That is why using Entrecard can raise your Alexa rank in short time.
The good news is, there is a great way to buzz your Alexa Rank with using bookmark list for dropping fast for less than an hour to get maximum 300 Entrecards credits. With this credits you can buy advertising on blogs with high traffic. Then, you will see many visitors will coming to your blog from your advertising. It’s very useful to get much credit without spending lots of your time. You can download the bookmark list from Tysblog’s Powerdropping or the newer from Chetan’s Entrecard Boomark.
That’s what steps I’ve did. Hope this will helpful.
