Hello, I had been checking ranks for my 2 sites for past few days and noticed that it had been like over a week since their ranks changed and today when i checked alexa had updated the ranks. But how often does alexa updates ranks cause this is first time i seen alexa update ranks after so many days usually i think it was 3 days interval only.
its usually 3-7 days, this one did take extra long, and they did have the downtime. all my sites moved up in rank though so im happy!
Yup same here , jumped from 199990 rank to only 478,127 and for other to only 278,412 . Not a low rank but still it moved in +ve direction .
Well i also noticed that i think alexa changed its trend how it measures traffic, i got not a single user surfing my site using alexa toolbar and still it was able to get some traffic analysis so i think the toolbar is not needed for alexa ranking to improve, had so many unique visitis to my sites.
Alexa is pointless, just download their toolbar and use it for about a week and you'll site will rise a lot
Yup pointless for those who use trickry like u said, my sites never used trickry and their ranks are pure traffic
My site (PR5 homepage) is being ranked almost daily. Just now 458,193th, yesterday higher (about by 10,000). Ainuddin BestWebsites.com.my
if you have alexa bar installed and you visit your site daily, it will positively affect the alexa rank. I'm sure if you are checking alexa rank for your site, you must have it with you, instead of going to the alexa site daily to check.
