How to get a High Alexa Rank

17 August 2008

In the last time some bloggers ask me how I get a great Alexa Traffic Rank of 94,350. Now I have decided to share my tips with all bloggers and try to help everyone to get a high Alexa Rank.

The Alexa Traffic Rank is calculated by the Visitors from every Country of the world (Traffic Rank of different countries). That means you dont need hundreds or thousand visitors only from the usa, because than you dont get a high Alexa Rank. Its important to get visitors from many countries.

How to get Visitors from other countries?

At the first I have used BlogCatalog.com, because there are many bloggers from all over the world. Than you can take a look at the Blog Directory at Blogcatalog.com and than you can browse blogs by Country, Language, or User. Choose country. Here you can choose blogs from different countries and try to write the blog owners if they want a link exchange or banner exchange. That was my way to get some visitors from countries like Germany, UK, Australia, India.

If you get visitors from countries like these, you get really fast a high Alexa Rank in these Countries. For example I have a Alexa Rank of 20,290 in Germany and I get only 5-10 visitors daily from Germany. And when you have some visitors from many countries you get really fast a higher Alexa Traffic Rank.

I hope I could help some bloggers. If you dont understand something, feel free to write me a message on my Contact Form.

I didn’t realize how much foreign visitors affected your Alexa rank. For some sites, however, foreign visitors aren’t valuable, so even though they increase you rank, they are in reality useless. Alexa is just a measure, as there are several low-ranked sites that are much more profitable than high ranked ones.

Thanks for the international visitors tip, I would have thought that diluted the US ranking.

Thanks for the explanation on how Alexa works, I’ve been wondering, as I have moved down,but not as far as I would like, simply because I don’t have alot of traffic from out side the us. Thanks

Alexa rank is especially important if you want to get sponsership from websites. They often look at your Alexa rank to gauge the potential of advertising on your website. I am currently trying to work my Alexa rank down too since my blog is only 1.5 months old.

Apparently Alexa is getting a *bit* more relevant as they are starting to use other data as well as their toolbar data (which very few people have installed).

But I still don’t think it is something worth worrying too much about…

If people are thinking about advertising directly on your web site - I think something like quantcast stats would be more important?

Hmm, apart from bragging rights does having a low alexa rating bring any other benefits? Does it impact SERPs? Thanks

Hi Marcel,

Great Post! I wonder why more bloggers don’t use Alexa. To a certain degree it is a better tool than Google. I recommend that everyone get Alexa’s toolbar in their browser to check out sites as they go along.

Very easy to do. Just send emails for a link exchange sounds like an easy step to take.

Practical tip…glad that you’ve mentioned. Apart from BlogCatalog you can join some of the regional (international) online groups like Yahoo Groups or Google Groups and having an active participation there could also drive in international traffic.

Getting traffic from countries all over the world is only good if your website caters to people all over the world. If you are promoting something that only caters to people in the USA it wouldn’t do you any good to have traffic Australia.
