How Does Alexa Ranking Work – Alexa Ranking Explained

Alexa Ranking is quite correct rank for those blogs which are having their rank below 1,00,000. Why I am saying this ?? Because it shows more graph and other features through which one can get extra information about any blog. But the topic is “How Alexa Ranking Works ??”.

Alexa computes global ranking by calculating web usage of those internet users who are opening a particular site with their Alexa Toolbar installed in it. Without Alexa Toolbar, they can’t do any thing. This Alexa Toolbar helps them to get number of page views, visitors, bounce rate, reach that helps in determining the exact global rank among all active sites present on internet.

The traffic rank of a particular website is based on three months of average historical web traffic from users visiting any site with Alexa Toolbar installed in their browser. This data comprises of Daily Reach, number of Page Views, Time spent by each user on your site, Bounce Rate of your site and Search Percentage.

Then I must say that you should install Alexa Toolbar in your browser and even tell your friends and blog readers to install it on their respective browsers.

You can install it by going to Alexa.com.

Other way to improve your Alexa Traffic Rank of your site is to claim your site on Alexa. I have recently written about : How to claim your site on Alexa.

This is because I have seen a sudden growth of my blog in terms of Alexa Ranking. When I started working on my another blog that is SpectraCar.com (It provides information about cars and guides you in selecting a suitable car for yourself), then Alexa Ranking was about 9,100,000. But after claiming that site, I found a sudden change in Alexa Ranking of this blog in just 5 days that is : 5,900,000. Isn’t it amazing ?? If you don’t believe this, you can check the Alexa ranking of my new blog TopEduNews.com which is just a domain without any content or even I have not installed WordPress on it. Can you think without Web hosting and without a platform it is having 11,000,000 Alexa Rank in just 7 to 10 days. I know you will be laughing after seeing the Alexa Ranking, but let me repeat “It is inactive domain”.

And let me tell me give you the insight view of my blogs : This improvement of the blog was done with as low as traffic of just 10 visitor per day (http://SpectraCar.com) and with zero traffic on http://TopEduNews.com.

Site Linking leads to the popularity of your blog :

Also, Blog Commenting can fetch you high Alexa ranking if you do it seriously. Through this way, you can make backlinks free. More you have backlinks more you have site linking in your Alexa Ranking Report.

Don’t Miss : Importance of Blog Commenting.

Through this way, Alexa ranks website and provide a global rank with the insight view of that particular site. This is the most important factor as similar to the Page Rank.

Regularity is the Key :

The main factor is the regular posting. Why I am saying this because when I improved my Alexa Ranking to 9,100,000 to 5,900,000 in 5 days, it was so soothing to my heart and mind. But after the 50 days of that improvement, I have not posted a single post on my blog. This was not because I was only focussing on blog commenting and making backlinks but this was because of my examinations, I was not getting time to post on my blog as I was having 3 blogs at that time and now I have 5 blogs in total. Lack of updation costs me heavy and made me to work even harder on this issue. Again, the alexa ranking of SpectraCar.com is back to 9,100,000 and it is so bad. If I would have been posting regularly then I must be improving in this issue. Now my exams are over and I will be posting regularly. I have almost holidays of 50 days in which you will be seeing many posts on each of my blogs.

The reason that can damage your blog Alexa Ranking are :

Google Panda Update : You can see our blog which will help you gain knowledge about what is this Google Panda Update ??

This algorithm has affected my blog to the core. Still I am getting low on traffic, as this will take around 3-4 months to get recover. I wish this nightmare leave me soon.

Quality Content is the best way to reduce Bounce Rate :

Why I am saying you to post quality content. You have been reading this every where to post quality content but still you find it difficult to post it. Let me tell you that quality content refers to the quality of the content. You might be amazed to hear about this – how to judge the quality of your post ?? You can judge it by seeing the length of the post. Your post must be easy to follow and contains simple language without any grammar mistakes. You should not use difficult words in your post so that visitor have to look the meaning. If you have written every thing in the post, your visitor will love it and check your site continously. This post’s quality will improve your Alexa Ranking.

All these factors are responsible for the improvement of your Alexa Ranking. Alexa reviews your site on the basis of Traffic Rank, Bounce Rate, Number of vistors, Number of Pageviews, Number of Site Linkings and reviewing the popularity of your blog.

I think it is clear what to do and what not to. In case you want any more suggestions on Alexa Ranking, do not feel shy to ask me via comment section. I will surely reply you as soon as possible.
