Alexa Internet was founded in 1996 by Brewster Kahle and Bruce Gilliat. The company's name was chosen in homage to the Library of Alexandria, drawing a parallel between the largest repository of knowledge in the ancient world to the potential of the Internet.

The company offered a toolbar that gave Internet users suggestions on where to go next, based on the traffic patterns of its user community. Alexa also offered context for each site visited: to whom it was registered, how many pages it had, how many other sites pointed to it, and how frequently it was updated.

It is important to emphasize that you should devote most of your efforts in growing your site audience alongside integrated implementation of any of the following tips below.

   1. Install the Alexa toolbar or Firefoxï¿½s SearchStatus extension and set your blog as your homepage. This is the most basic step.

   2. Put up an Alexa rank widget on your website. I did this a few days ago and receive a fair amount of clicks every day. According to some, each click counts as a visit even if the toolbar is not used by the visitor.

   3. Encourage others to use the Alexa toolbar. This includes friends, fellow webmasters as well as site visitors/blog readers. Be sure to link to Alexaï¿½s full explanation of their toolbar and tracking system so your readers know what installing the toolbar or extension entails.

   4. Work in an Office or own a company? Get the Alexa toolbar or SS Firefox extension installed on all computers and set your website as the homepage for all browsers. Perhaps it will be useful to note that this may work only when dynamic or different IPs are used.

   5. Get friends to review and rate your Alexa website profile. Not entirely sure of its impact on rankings but it might help in some way.

   6. Write or Blog about Alexa. Webmaster and bloggers love to hear about ways to increase their Alexa rank. Theyï¿½ll link to you and send you targeted traffic (i.e. visitors with the toolbar already installed). This gradually has effects on your Alexa ranking.

   7. Flaunt your URL in webmaster forums. Webmasters usually have the toolbar installed. Youï¿½ll get webmasters to visit your website and offer useful feedback. Itï¿½s also a good way to give back to the community if you have useful articles to share with others.

   8. Write content that is related to webmasters. This can fall in the category of domaining and SEO, two fields in which most webmasters will have the Alexa toolbar installed. Promote your content on social networking websites and webmaster forums.

   9. Use Alexa redirects on your website URL. Try this: http://redirect.alexa.com/redirect?www.doshdosh.com . Replace doshdosh.com with the URL for your website. Leave this redirected URL in blog comments as well as forum signatures. This redirect will count a unique IP address once a day so clicking it multiple times wonï¿½t help. There is no official proof that redirects positively benefit your Alexa Rank, so use with caution.

10. Post in Asian social networking websites or forums. Some webmasters have suggested that East Asian web users are big Alexa toolbar fans, judging by the presence of several Asia-based websites in the Alexa Top 500. I suggest trying this only if you have the time or capacity to do so.

11. Create a webmaster tools section on your website. This is a magnet for webmasters who will often revisit your website to gain access to the tools. Aaron Wallï¿½s webpage on SEOTools is a very good example.

12. Get Dugg or Stumbled. This usually brings massive numbers of visitors to your website and the sheer amount will have a positive impact on your Alexa Rank. Naturally, youï¿½ll need to develop link worthy material.

13. Use PayperClick Campaigns. Buying advertisements on search engines such as Google or Exact Seek will help bring in Traffic. Doubly useful when your ad is highly relevant to webmasters.

14. Create an Alexa category on your blog and use it to include any articles or news about Alexa. This acts as an easily accessible resource for webmasters or casual search visitors while helping you rank in the search engines.

15. Optimize your popular posts. Got a popular post that consistently receives traffic from the search engines? Include a widget/graph at the bottom of the post, link to your Alexa post or use Alexa redirection on your internal URLs.

16. Buy banners and links for traffic from webmaster forums and websites. A prominent and well displayed ad will drive lots of webmaster traffic to your website, which can significantly boost your rank.

17. Hire forum posters to pimp your website. Either buy signatures in webmaster forums or promote specific articles or material in your website on a regular basis. You can easily find posters for hire in Digital Point and other webmaster forums.

18. Pay Cybercafe owners to install the Alexa toolbar and set your website as the homepage for all their computers. This might be difficult to arrange and isnï¿½t really a viable solution for most. Iï¿½m keeping this one in because some have suggested that it does work.

19. Use MySpace . This is a little shady so I donï¿½t recommended it unless youï¿½re really interested in artificially inflating your Alexa Rank. Use visually attractive pictures or banners and link them to your redirected Alexa URL. This will be most effective if your website has content that is actually relevant to the MySpace Crowd.

20. Try Alexa auto-surfs. Do they work? Maybe for brand new sites. I think they are mostly suitable for new websites with a very poor Alexa rank. Note that there be problems when you try to use auto surfs alongside contextual ads like Adsense. They arenï¿½t also long term solutions to improving your Alexa Rank so I suggest using with caution.

Thanks all..

engine that also collects historical data about your web site and its visitors. It is another gauge on website popularity. Installing the toolbar is highly recommended and by visiting your own site you will in turn increase your Alexa rating. You should also have as many people you know install this as well so that when they visit your site Alexa credits your site with the visit

I agree with James23 - I can't see the point of Alexa as it doesn't really do anything and is just a measure of how many people with the Alexa toolbar installed visit a site. The details aren't very accurate and are confusing at best.

The article is great enough. However could you explain why Alexa is frequently don't match with the visitor actually come on the site? One of my site with good traffic have Alexa rank less than one other have not so good traffic. I'm really confuse about that.

i guess all webmasters want to know about such things like what's the algorythm of Google, Yahoo,and even MSN, but don't be so curious because you will never know even though you are a programming engineer working for those search engines.

websites you will get targeted traffic from those will
