Yeah the redirect trick is shut down, not surprising when every article about improving Alexa rankings is promoting it. Don’t know how I would get on with Asia forums either, and am not convinced that Google would promote a UK IP address website because of Alexa rankings for Asia.

Good tips, although I’m pretty sure the redirect thing doesn’t work anymore. Still though, you’re correct about the stats being skewed to more webmaster oriented sites and posting in webmaster forums is a great idea.

You can improve your rank by running some google adwords to your blog or site from time to time. Of course you would only do this if it were profitable in the end, but the extra traffic isn’t all that bad.

ok a small update for anyone who reads this post still. Bitching to Alexa like I have alot when I notice my rank does not increase helps alot. I have recieved lots of emails from poeple who have said because of my bitching there ranks have gotten better as well. They kind just sit there and don’t do much unless people complain. My rank is now under 400k

I have the toolbar installed but over the last week my rank has not changed at all. Was kinda weird when I first installed it my rank went to 970k and now look at it. I don’t understand how this works at all.

The Alexa ranking system is extremely flawed. Anyone that has ever taken a Statistics course would know that the sample size is too small to make any real impact.

For extremely large sites (visitor wise) it’s at least semi-relevant but for small sites the rank means almost nothing. Webmasters just install the code and then surf their own sites and the rankings go down the drain.
