For a very long time, I have been working hard on trying to get my Alexa rank better. I don’t know whether I should say increase my rank or decrease my rank, since the smaller your number is, the better; yet, increasing just sounds better. Either way, my rank is getting lower and lower, so that is something that is good. I was surprised to see that it had dropped 30K in a few days, but then I realized why it had gone down. There was now a FireFox Alexa toolbar and since there was one of those, everyone that viewed my site that had it installed, would therefore help me with my rank. Sure, it’s biased, but so what?

Now that I see it going lower and lower, I can start to see things getting better and better. Perhaps it’ll take time, but maybe as it grows, more and more opportunities will hit me. Because of this, I have begun thinking about forgetting all these review companies and just doing it all on my own. Perhaps that would work best. This is the first time any of my sites has gone lower than 600K for Alexa, so I am pretty excited. I know that I will have to continue working hard to get it even lower, but I really think this could be the start of something.

If you want to install the viewbar, please go download it. It really isn’t all that invasive.

It takes a lot out of me to write these blog posts. Buy me a beer to cool me off!
