    The following tactics are tantamount to blackhat SEO and can get your site DE-LISTED from Alexa entirely:

    1.Use Alexa redirects on your website URL. (if you don’t know what I’m talking about, good. If you look it up out of curiosity, cool, but know that many sites have been stripped of their Alexa ranking for trying this… a 200,000 ranking is better than none at all)

    2.Pay Cybercafe owners to install the Alexa toolbar and set your website as the homepage for all their computers. Do people really do this?

    3.Hire forum posters to pimp your website. Either buy signatures in webmaster forums or promote specific articles or material in your website on a regular basis. You can easily find posters for hire in Digital Point and other webmaster forums.

    I'm curious. Why is everyone into getting their Alexa rank up? Isn't it just a rough estimate of traffic to your site?

    I don't understand the SEO value here?
