    What is the role of Alexa toolbar to improve ranking in Alexa? I am very curious to know the functionality of Alexa toolbar. Can any one help me to get the appropriate information about Alexa toolbar??

    Alexa ranking is based on how much traffic you are getting for the website on the daily basic.

    alexa counts traffic if either
    1) your website has alexa counter code on the page
    2) your website visitor has alexa toolbar installed

    A quick way to improve alexa ranking you can install alexa counter on one of your website pages and direct cheap automated traffic to it.

    There is no such thing as an Alexa counter code and adding the Alexa widget to your pages will do nothing for your rank either...

    With the Alexa toolbar installed in your browser, then when you visit your own sites, Alexa can collet the data of your sites' visitors easily, then, your sites can gain a better ranking easily.

    Hi,

    It is said that installing Alexa toolbar and visiting your own sites from different IPs would be helpful for Alexa ranking. :)

    have a nice day,

    Yup, I heard the same thing. Alexa ranking can be skewed if you install Alexa toolbar and visit your site frequently. Not sure how much of this is true.

    Alexa is very powerful tool used to rank website traffic. Remember The lower the alexa ranking number the more heavily visited the site.

    DO you have any idea what you are talking about? Do you even know how Alexa calculates the ranks?

    yep, it's a measure of traffic, and it depends on if other people use their toolbar
