20 Quick Ways to Increase Your Alexa Rank

Most of the tips were gleaned from several fellow bloggers and webmasters who’ve experimented with Alexa.

1. Install the Alexa toolbar or Firefox’s SearchStatus extension and set your blog as your homepage. This is the most basic step
2. Put up an Alexa rank widget on your website. I did this a few days ago and receive a fair amount of clicks every day.
3. Encourage others to use the Alexa toolbar. This includes friends, fellow webmasters as well as site visitors/blog readers.
4. Work in an Office? Get the Alexa toolbar or SS Firefox extension installed on all computers and set your website as the homepage for all browsers.
5. Get friends to review and rate your Alexa website profile. Not entirely sure of its impact on rankings but it might help in some way.
6. Write or Blog about Alexa. Webmaster and bloggers love to hear about ways to increase their Alexa rank. They’ll link to you or visit your blog, which helps with your traffic rank.
7. Flaunt your URL in webmaster forums. Webmasters usually have the toolbar installed. I like doing this for a few reasons. You’ll get webmasters to visit your website and get some feedback in return. It’s also a good way to give back to the community.
8. Write content that is related to webmasters. This can fall in the category of domaining and SEO, two fields in which most webmasters will have the Alexa toolbar installed. Promote your content on social networking websites and webmaster forums.
9. Use Alexa redirects on your website URL. Try this: http://redirect.alexa.com/redirect?www.doshdosh.com . Replace doshdosh.com with the URL for your website. Leave this redirected URL in blog comments as well as forum signatures. This redirect will count a unique IP address once a day so clicking it multiple times won’t help.
10. Post in Asian social networking websites or forums. Some have suggested that Asian (Korean or Hong Kong) web users are big Alexa toolbar fans.
11. Create a webmaster tools section on your website. This is a magnet for webmasters who will often visit your website to use the tools. Aaron Wall’s webpage on SEOTools is a very good example.
12. Get Dugg or Stumbled. This usually brings massive numbers of visitors to your website and the sheer amount will have a positive impact on your Alexa Rank. Of course, you’ll have to develop link worthy material.
13. Use PayperClick Campaigns. Buying advertisements on search engines such as Google or Exact Seek will help bring in Traffic. Doubly useful when your ad is about webmaster/tech related products/content.
14. Create an Alexa category on your blog and use it to include any articles or news about Alexa. This acts as a resource for webmasters while helping you rank in the search engines.
15. Optimize your popular posts. Got a popular post that consistently receives traffic from the search engines? Include a widget at the bottom of the post, call for Alexa signups or use Alexa redirection on your internal URLs.
16. Buy banners and links for traffic from webmaster forums and websites. A prominent and well displayed ad will drive lots of webmaster traffic to your website, which can significantly boost your rank.
17. Hire forum posters to pimp your website. Either buy signatures in webmaster forums or get respected users to pimp specific articles or material in your website on a regular basis.
18. Pay Cybercafe owners to install the Alexa toolbar and set your website as the homepage for all their computers.
19. Use MySpace . This is a little shady so I don’t recommended it unless you’re really interested in artificially inflating your Alexa Rank. Use visually attractive (wierd/sexy/funny) pictures or banners and link them to your redirected Alexa URL. You’ll get a lot of clicks but it doesn’t mean people are visiting your website.
20. Try Alexa auto-surfs. Do they work? Maybe for brand new sites. I think they are most suitable for new websites with a terrible Alexa rank. There might also be problems when you try to use auto surfs alongside contextual ads like Adsense.

What is PSA and Why am I getting it ?

What is PSA ?
PSAs or Public Service Ads are non-profit organization ads that are served to pages when targeted ads are unavailable, or when Google is unable to gather content from the page. Publishers do NOT receive earnings for clicks made on PSAs.
Why am I getting PSAs ?
There can be many reasons why a website may display less targeted ads or public service ads. Below is a list of the most common issues.
· Google's system has not yet crawled all the pages of your website. - The crawler needs more time. If Google has not previously crawled your site, it may take up to 48 hours or more to gather the content of that page. In the meantime, the ads you see may be public service ads or ads that are only slightly relevant. The relevance will increase over time.Note: Cawler indexes by URL and therefore considers http://site.com and http://www.site.com different URLs. Because it will visit these URLs separately, you may notice ads appear differently on these pages.- The crawler can't reach your site. If the crawler isn't able to access your page, you will see an error message on the Site Diagnostics page of your account. For more details on these errors and how to resolve them, please go here: Site Diagnostics entry.
· Your page may contain sensitive content for which relevant paying ads will not be displayed. Google system has certain filters in place to protect the advertisers from advertising on pages that could be construed as potentially negative, non-family safe or even offensive. Although the nature of your content may not fit into any of these categories, at times the emphasis of some sensitive subject matters on a page can flag the servers to deliver public service ads to a page.
Your account may be disapproved or awaiting review.To determine the status of your application, please try to log in at www.google.com/adsense using the email address and password you submitted with your application.

If you see a message stating: Account Not Active: An AdSense account does not exist for this login, as it is associated with an unapproved application., search your email to find the disapproval or account closure message for more information. If you've applied to AdSense through another website, such as Blogger, you may be displaying ads even though your application is unreviewed or has been disapproved. If you see a message stating Account Not Active: An AdSense account does not exist for this login, as your application is currently in review., please wait 2-3 days because your application is under review. If you see another message or form, search your email to find the disapproval message for more information.
If you successfully log into your account, this reason doesn't apply to you.
· Your site has restricted access using a robots.txt exclusion. If your site is using a robots.txt file, the AdSense crawler may be blocked from crawling your webpages. Therefore, your site can't get the most relevant ads based on the content of your website. On pages the crawler unable to crawl or understand the content of a page, public service ads may be displayed, for which you will not receive any earnings.For more information on the robots protocol, please visit http://www.robotstxt.org.
· Your website is using session IDs in the URL. If your webpages use session IDs, you may not receive targeted ads on those pages. Since this session ID - and therefore the URL - changes every time a different user views a page, the URL will not be in the index and will be queued to be crawled. Once the URL is crawled, however, the session will most likely have expired. This means that pages seen by the users are never in the index. You will need to remove the session IDs in order to display targeted ads.
· Your website is using frames. Google AdSense crawlers are unable to match ads to your webpage content when the AdSense ad code is placed in a frame separate from the primary content of your website. It is important to place the ad code in the same frame as the content of your webpages in order to serve ads targeted to your webpage content.
· Your ad unit is set to display image ads only. Image ad inventory for your content may be limited at this time; PSAs will be displayed in that unit when there are no relevant image ads available. To avoid showing PSA's, please update your preferences to show both text and image ads or implementing an alternate ad.
· Your webpage may not contain enough content. There may not be enough information on your site for Adsense crawlers to determine the content of your pages. Therefore, it is a bit difficulty to identify relevant ads to show on your pages. Please note that the crawlers are unable to derive meaning from:* audio and video files (.wma, .mpeg, .mov)* mp3 files (.mp3)* images (.jpeg, .bmp)* Macromedia Flash movies* Java AppletsIn such cases, you need to include more content other than the above files on your website to assist the crawlers in gathering information about your site to display relevant ads.
· The AdSense ad code was placed within an IFRAME.
· Your webpages are behind a login. At this time, pages that require a login can not be easily visited by Adsense crawlers. Additionally, since these types of pages are not easily visited for approval and it is difficult for AdSense specialists to verify that pages behind a log in follow Google AdSense policies.
· There are too many URLs added to your account filter list. At times, if you add too many URLs to your filter list, there might be no longer other ads available to target to your content. As a result, you may begin seeing less relevant or public service ads on your webpages.
· Your site content is primarily in an unsupported language.If the AdSense code is placed on pages with content primarily in an unsupported language, public service ads or ads in another language will appeared. You can refer to program policies, publishers may not display ads on pages with content primarily in an unsupported language, so please remove the ad code from these pages until we're able to support your language.
· Your ad code has been modifiedIf the AdSense code has been manually modified, such as to change the ad unit width or height or the publisher ID. Please select the desired ad format on the AdSense Setup tab of your account and then paste the generated ad code, unedited, onto your pages. Keep in mind that modifications to your code are not permitted by our program policies.
