how to get alexa rankings ?

[deepsand]

Still if you want to improve alexa rank then install alexa toolbar to your browser and set your website as home page in the browser, browse website regularly and you'll see improvement in alexa rank.

Manipulating your own site's ranking is unethical.

And, it may be counterproductive, as such transparent click fraud is easily detected.

Alexa is not a search engine. It makes no attempt at cataloging all links, but only those of selected "top sites."

I heard many times about Alexa rankings. I often hear people talk about their Alexa rank as an important metric of their site's success. Is it important for a website and how i can increase Alexa rank for mine website... Please share your views here.

Thanks in Advance!!

In short, no, Alexa rankings are not important and I tend not to give them much attention. Here's why: 1) Alexa rankings are determined by how many people visit a certain site while also having the Alexa toolbar installed. If people are visiting your site but don't have the Alexa toolbar installed, then you will not get credit for the visit in Alexa. 2) Alexa rankings play no part in your Page Rank and/or Google SERPs. What this means is that you will not get a larger amount of traffic for having a good Alexa ranking. On the contrary, your Alexa ranking will go up after you start to see an increase in traffic due to other reasons such as high-quality content and high-quality backlinks. IMO your time is much better spent focusing on those two things than the Alexa page rank, which will take care of itself once you get more traffic.

I agree with merlot105 above.

Over the last year my site has gone from Alexa Rank 1million+ to 125,000.

A year ago i used Alexa Ranking to compare between my site and competitors sites this was the only use i had for it.
It did urge me to get to that level so in that way its been a help.

As my sites are UK based the Alexa Toolbar is ( i think ) more common in USA and this distorts the figures.

I have not found any other ranking method so make do with this but dont lose sleep over this.

Wouldn't going from 1 million+ to 125,000 be an eightfold increase in Alexa rank? It's 8 times closer to #1. That's a huge boost in rank.

What i experienced is that it is easier to go from 3million + to 1 million than from 1m to 150000.
In terms of visitors i had maybe 300 per day at 1mn and 1200 a day at 150000.

If it helps

I often hear people talk about their Alexa rank as an important metric of their site's success.

The only time that I ever come across anyone talking about "Alexa rank" is in a "domain for sale" posting with statistics about their site. As far as I am concerned, not a big factor, simply because a Alexa rank can be influenced..(see merlot105 posting above)

i don't care about alexa ranking because it is not accurate but if you still want to get better alexa ranking you can do following tricks.
