Posted in AhTim news, Increase Traffic, SEO Tips | By AhTim @ October 19th, 2007
I am very happy that my AhTim.com ranking have jump again from 820,734 to 570,301 when I check my Alexa ranking yesterday ! Refer to my 1st monthly SEO report , AhTim.com stay at 820,734 just 5 Days ago and I already expect it to jump again very soon based on Alexa traffic rank but never thought it really jump so soon 
In last 5 days time, I’ve jump a head 250433 websites or blogs means 30% improvement on my Alexa ranking performance. But the fact remind me a question, that is how I boost Alexa ranking from 1,456,330 to 570,301 in 35 Days ?
How I BOOST Alexa ranking ?
If you read my post about AhTim SEO Report I did mentioned about the 20 Days Challenge from JohnChow.com . No doubt the 20 Days post challenge really can boost up your Alexa traffic rank. I’ve conclude the techniques that I’ve use in the past 35 days to boost up my Alexa ranking as below:
1. Frequent Post
As a new blogger, the main factor that we need more concern is on your blog content, not SEO keyword optimization nor Google Adwords. You won’t get stable amount of readers without good blog content. In order to write good blog content, I write post everyday since the 20 Days challenge from JohnChow.com unless I on sick for last few days. I would say this habit really build up my blog content, my writing skills, as well as my reputation with readers. As my conclusion, post frequently esspecially post everyday as your habit is the main key to improve Alexa ranking!
2. Trackback
Always trackback your post to others blog post that related to your post title. This technique definitely will increase your blog post exposure as well as a link back to your post. When readers read post in others famous blog post, there is higher chances that they will see your trackback and follow your trackback to your blog article. If you still don’t know what is trackback, I will write another post on how to trackback later
3. Comment in famous blog in your niche
Make yourself well known in your niche market. No matter actively comment in forum or famous blog in your niche definitely will help to improve your ranking. For me, I start from comment in the blog that in my related niche market locally. I make try to myself well known in few famous blog and others start noticed me and read my post, including YOU ! right? So why don’t you start to comment in AhTim.com and see how I bring some traffic and readers to you?
My two cents
As my conclusion, to boost up Alexa ranking is not a very tought job if you continue upholding to post quality content everyday. Of course I doesn’t mean that you do need to do SEO optimization, but that is second priority task. So how is your Alexa ranking today? Don’t forget to share with us.
After VCP-310 and 350-001, professionals who have studied from testking know that the nest best choice to do is to write 640-802 as this qualifies them for 70-290 as well as 70-291.

One way to increase your rank is install the toolbar on your own browser. Every time you visit the site you’ll increase your rank. I wouldn’t advise spamming your site because it’ll be fake but if you go on to reply to comments or such like that it doesn’t hurt.

Hi Adam, but do you think the method is effective? I don’t think so…

Is it effective? Definitely! It increases your rank. Is it truthful and does it provide any actual measure of your sites ranking? Definitely not.
This is just one of the many reasons why the Alexa statistic is useless.

Hello AhTim,
I’ve read cymru66 tips on Alexa Redirect Tips on placing http://redirect.alexa.com/redirect?www.yourdomain.com links everywhere like other blogs, forums, social networks etc. My Alexa Stats jumped from 1.3 - 1.2 in 2 days. What is your feedback on this?
October 26th, 2007 at 6:06 pm
Azel, Im not sure whether the method works and also never heard about this before. Anyway, the best method is proving quality content with frequent blog post

I had a relatively easy task at hand with the coming of entrecard.com !!.
This allowed me to know developing blogs in my niche and allowed me discover hundreds of other interesting sites as well.
I used to visit their site to know more about them and also dropped my entrecard!.This helped me gain exposure and many of the people in my niche are my blogging friends.
Added to this my alexa rank improved from 50lakhs to 13lakhs(as of today)……..:)
Entrecard rocks….

@Rohit: You can also drop card into my entrecard box here.

I heared the announcement that alexa has changed its ranking algorithm. I am little happy with this change because my website got little improvment. see new alexa ranking for Fortune Park Hotels Ltd.

Hi Ah Tim, nice to meet you, my brother.
I’m new to blogging and would like to learn more. Do you think using trackback to boost my blog is ethical? I’ll be putting links to my blog on other people’s blogs without actually linking to them. There is no reciprocal link. Is this a kind of spam?
God bless.

@Alexa widget: Yes, Alexa change its ranking algorithm. It did affect my blog’s ranking too.
@Ricky Soo: Trackback is not spam. It will be best if you link to them, so that the blog owner approve your trackback link.

Thanks for the hint. I like the traceback idea.
June 14th, 2008 at 2:15 pm
Dear bro Tim,
I wonder what’s the best practice on regard to trackbacks and I guess we can learn from you here.
1. So when you trackback to other blog, normally do you link to them?
2. Why and why not?
3. When you receive trackback from others, do you normally approve them? (either they link to you or they do not)
Thanks.
June 14th, 2008 at 10:35 pm
@Ricky:
1. Sometime.
2. I’ll choose the best blog to link.
3. Yes, if the article is on same topic.
