Increase Your Alexa Rank

Sexy Webmaster

Ok, as most of you know, a lot has been said about the Alexa redirect and how it no longer works. I, therefore, decided to come up with a post with tips to increase your Alexa ranking without the use of the redirection code.

The below tips are very effective in boosting your Alexa rank, in a short period of time. If you don’t already have the toolbar installed, I suggest you get it from here:

Download Alexa Toolbar !

On to the 11 killer tips to boost your alexa rank:

1- First step should be to install the Alexa toolbar, and set your site to be your homepage. Most basic step.

2- Ask and encourage other friends, webmasters and site visitors to use the Alexa toolbar. Explain to them about the toolbar and tracking system, so that they know exactly what it is about.

3- Place an Alexa rank widget on your website. Each click on the widget counts as a visit even if the visitor doesn’t have Alexa toolbar installed.

4- Blog or write about Alexa. Bloggers and webmasters love to hear about ways to boost their Alexa rank. They’ll be linking to your posts and send you targeted traffic ( visitors with the toolbar already installed). This will gradually affect your Alexa ranking.

5- Join Asian social networking websites and forums. East Asian web users are big fans of Alexa toolbar. Several Asia-based websites are in the Alexa Top 500 or so. If you have some extra time in your hands, you can try this one.

6- Create and start a webmasters tools section on your website. This will be a magnet for webmasters who will keep revisiting your website to gain access to the tools.

7- Do you work in an office or own a company? Install the Alexa toolbar or SS Firefox extension on all computers and set your website address as the homepage for all browsers. This may work only when different IPs are used, which is the case with many companies.

8- Spread your URL in webmaster forums (maybe via signature). Most webmasters have the alexa toolbar installed. They can benefit from your useful articles in your site, and you benefit from their hits.

9- Get Dugg and/or Stumbled. This usually sends massive numbers of visitors to your website and most will have a positive impact on your Alexa Rank. Consider developing link worthy material.

10- Pay Internet cafe owners to install the Alexa toolbar and set your website address, as the homepage for all their computers. Might be difficult to pull off and isn’t really a viable solution for most, but is included because some have reported that it works.

11- Create an Alexa section or Alexa category on your blog, and use it to include any posts or news about Alexa. You are providing webmasters and casual search visitors, with an easily accessible resource, while at the same time increasing you rank in the search engines.
