Boost Alexa traffic rank
July 3rd, 2008Although Alexa Traffic Rank may not be very accurate, majority of advertisers consider it rather important. It is one of few tools available on the market that allow advertisers to have a look at your traffic stats. The important thing is to know how the Alexa Toolbar works.
Alexa ranks sites base on the information gathered from all Alexa tool bar users. Therefore, visits to your site from non-Alexa users is not much of a help when it comes to boosting your rank. If you want to increase your Alexa rank you have to identify the group of Alexa Toolbar users and attract these users to your site. It doesn’t take a genius to discover it right away. They are webmasters and SEO guys. Of course, when you attract this group to your site, you will inflate your Alexa rank, and in fact, your traffic will not be much bigger. You will only create an illusion. I don’t judge whether it’s right or wrong, but just think that it might be a waste of time, since it will not do much for your site except displaying a higher rank.
