Alexa Rank is a ranking system which bases on the level of traffic that each site receives from the number of people who visit it. So the more the number of traffic you get from your visitor, the more you’ll rank well in Alexa. How you can check your site rank in alexa is simply go to Alexa home page site and search for your own site.

In order to increase your Alexa ranking you must be proactive in your strategies and plan your steps carefully to succeed. With the right Alexa ranking you can demand higher prices from current advertisers and attract new advertisers just the same. If you want to increase your Alexa ranking, there are a few things you can do right now to get there. Remember in order to move up in your alexa rank, you have to bump someone out. You are competing for someone else’s ranking and you better be willing to do what it takes to achieve a higher ranking.

1. The most basic step is install the Alexa toolbar or Firefox?s SearchStatus extension. Then you can set your blog as your homepage.
2. Put up an Alexa rank widget on your homepage. Maybe it?s a little annoying but trust me this step is very important. I?ve doing this, and in just couple days my Alexa Rank get raised for about 30%.
3. Call your friends or your family, ask them to review and rate your Alexa website profile.
4. Make a post about Alexa. It could be ?100 tips and tricks to increasing your Alexa Rank?, ?Increasing Your Alexa Rank in just 3 Seconds?, etc. Make sure you make an attractive title for your post. Your post will attract many bloggers and webmasters to read. If your post has certain quality, don?t be surprised if you get some juicy backlinks from them.
5. Make useful articles then promote it on social networking websites. You can also promote it on many webmaster forums, such as Promo Junkie, Digital Point, etc.
6. Make a cool and useful tool and post it on your blog. It can be a webmaster tools, etc. One of the good examples is TechCrunch’s YouTube Downloader. If your tool very useful, it will make visitors revisit to your website frequently.
7. Make sure you Dugg or Stumbled your fresh post.
8. Buy paid-traffic. Did you know that you can buy a thousand traffics at DigitalPoint as cheap as $1? Make sure that you pick a trustful traffic seller. You can also buy advertisements from Google, Adengage, etc. It’s cheap and very useful.
9. If you want to use a free one, try Alexa auto-surfs. You can search it on Google. Try to use a good one.
10. The last tips could be a little blackhat, so I don’t recommended it. The trick is by using your social network account on MySpace, Facebook, Friendster, etc. Use attractive pictures and link them to your redirected Alexa URL. Yes, just that simple.
