any tips for a quick boost to our alexa rank? we are a ford dealer just outside of boston. forgive the format but we cant post links yet since we are a new user:

watertownford dot com

our page seems to have a pretty low rank and i think it might be hurting us in our seo for google and yahoo. any advice?

I'm finding it hard because a lot of our traffic aren't advanced web users and don't have the alexa bar installed. should i even worry about it? We generate about 11k unique visitors a month but our rank is over 2.6mill..

There's absolutely no correlation between your alexa score and your Google rankings. The only time I've had anyone concerned with Alexa was a client that used the data in their advertising. In that case, they installed the Alexa tool bar on all of the office computers and voila... they were more popular.

Let your alexa grow naturally, don't try to maniuplate it because it's a waste of time. Build your SERP rankings, get traffic and add content to your site, in time your alexa rank will automatically adjust.

Most people don't take alexa too seriously anyway.

I always verify alexa before paying on any site.
If it is higher than 100.000, i never pay. O0

@sevam: well I'd agree that Alexa does have some value but on it's own it doesn't tell you much. you have to kind of check it along side the pagerank, age of site, indexed pages etc for it to really have any value  8)

In terms of boosting it, well it's based on pageviews from browsers that have the alexa toolbar installed. So just get more traffic and hopefully you'll overtime boost up your alexa rank too.

I think it's best to keep working on organic traffic the long hard way, I'm sure there is a way to abuse your alexa stats but i don't know of it, maybe non-unique page views?

There are ways to enhance your rankings in Alexa.

1 - download the toolbar in Alexa and confirm that your PCs have your homepage as the default homepage. Within a few months, you will glimpse a marked improvement in your Alexa rankings

2 - use Alexa redirection URL in your site

3 - use devices that control Alexa

The answer is quite simple.  If the Alexa position has to improve the traffic to the website has to improve by leaps and bounds.

It is well known that text link brokers are a big factor in AlexaRank to determine the charges to allow placing publisher's advertisements. The higher AlexaRank will help you to earn more by using advertisement programs.

Google and Alexa rank your score no correlation between the two is not absolute. Alexa and I have only time that those involved in their ad was a customer to use the data. In this case, all the Alexa Toolbar installed on your desktop and voila ... There were more popular.
