The higher the ranking is, the smaller number is the rank given. Based on Alexa, Google (Alexa Ranking 1) is the most popular website in the Internet, followed by Yahoo(2), Facebook(3), and Youtube(4).

You can see website ranking in your browser after installing the toolbar or just check it at Alexa website.

How accurate is Alexa Ranking?

In a perfect world, Alexa user base would be a fair statistical sample of the Internet user population, and thus the ranking should be quite accurate in comparing popularity of one site to another.

However, in reality Alexa Ranking is hardly reliable. Alexa ranks sites based on tracking information of users of its Alexa Toolbar for Internet Explorer and from plugins in Firefox. Thus it is greatly dependent on the number of Alexa toolbar installed among the site visitors.

Websites targeted to webmasters and web designers generally do better in Alexa Ranking compared to websites in other niche, e.g. food or pregnancy. That is largely because webmasters are more willing to install the Alexa toolbar to check on the competitors’ Alexa ranking as well as to push up their own website ranking.

Internet users in some countries are also more willing to install the Alexa Toolbar compared to others. I have seen a Singapore website with 10k visitors a day ranked 60k in Alexa, while an Indonesian site with just 1k visitor a day ranked 30k in Alexa.

How To Get Higher Alexa Ranking Easily

Less than a week ago, the 7 day average of Cheatad.com Ranking was 165,534. Today when I checked again, the 7 day average has advanced to 93,963, with yesterday ranking was an even better 67,568.

At 67,568 it means that Cheatad ranks even better than my other website which has 40 times more visitors and 120 times more pageviews. That is absolutely amazing, or ridiculous, depending how you see it.

On the other hand, while that is a bit unexpected, there is really not much surprise here. Alexa Ranking is known to be unreliable, and skewed specially to websites with webmasters visitors.

The main factor of Alexa Ranking calculation is the number of visits by the Alexa toolbar users. Knowing that, it is quite easy to improve Alexa ranking for your website. As long as more of your visitors have Alexa toolbar, your Alexa ranking will shoot up.

Here is the five easy and simple ways to rank higher in Alexa:

1. Install Alexa Toolbar

Download and install Alexa Toolbar. If your browser is Firefox, you can either use the Sparky plugin (official Alexa toolbar for Firefox) or SearchStatus plugin. I personally use Search Status for the other nice functions like ability to highlight nofollow link, calculate keyword density, etc.

2. Encourage Others To Install Alexa Toolbar
This includes your blog readers as well as friends. The point is, it should be easier convert your current regular visitors to use the toolbar rather than getting new visitors that happen to have Alexa toolbar installed.

3. Write About Alexa Ranking
Posting an article about Alexa Ranking is a good way to attract more webmasters to your blog, most of whom have the toolbar installed.

4. Participate In Webmaster Forums
Again, most webmasters have Alexa toolbar installed. When allowed, make sure to include your blog URL in the forum Signature. Some interested webmasters might just click to visit your blog.

5. Reload Your Pages Incessantly
With your Alexa toolbar installed, read back all articles you have written, try different searches, and refresh pages over and over, to increase the pageview count. Even better, set your webpage to auto refresh every 15 seconds.

Well, try them and you will notice your Alexa Ranking shooting up. Of course, you need to make sure you actually have got good contents and good number of visitors too. Otherwise the Alexa rank that you have gained will be short-lived.

It is no longer the case now, as there are lots of tools available, free or paid, where you can generate functional great looking websites in mere clicks.

Here are the step by step to make your own website:
1. Think of a niche
Most successful websites are centered around a particular idea, which is expandable and in-demand from web visitors. Find a niche that you know well and are comfortable with, then check it out at https://adwords.google.com/select/KeywordToolExternal to see if the niche is popular

2. Choose your domain name
Most if not all one-word domain names are taken up by now. Be creative and get a two-word domain name. Example, if your chosen niche is about baby, then your domain name can be babyresources.com . Use nametumbler.com to help you choose your domain name.

3. Buy domain name and hosting
There are many domain name and hosting providers in the Internet, from those with fantastic service till the not so great one. We suggest using HostGator hosting service. From just $4.95 per month, you get a Cpanel hosting for unlimited number of websites. The $50 Google Adwords credit free with the hosting will certainly help when you are promoting the site.

4. Install the publishing script
If your hosting has Fantastico support (such as HostGator), you can install a number of ready website script with just a few clicks. I would recommend using Wordpress for easy installation & setup, ease of use, great functionality, and fervent community support. Read about how to install Wordpress with Fantastico, or more information about Wordpress.

5. Web promotion
The cheapest way to promote your website is via search engine optimization. Learn about DIY search engine optimization, or if you have the budget, consider promoting your website via Google Adwords.

Earlier this week, Google launch it’s latest foray into social networking, the Google Buzz. It seems to be generating quite a buzz among web users, and will probably be Google’s most successful social attempt yet. Now, while a lot has been covered about the Google Buzz launch, the critics, the privacy issue, and the fix, little has been discussed about Google Buzz implications to webmasters and web marketers.

Emergence of social bookmarking has revolutionized web marketing in more than one ways, starting with early social bookmarking for geeks such as Digg and Del.icio.us to now Facebook and Twitter. Will Google Buzz makes any dent to Facebook and Twitter, the currently preferred choices of web marketers?

I do think so. This might be a little biased, since I’m a huge fan of Google and everything the company do, but I believe the Google Buzz will be very successful. Now, just 2 days into launching the Google Buzz, there are already more than 9 million posts and comments.

Obviously, this is an additional avenue for promoting whatever product and services you have, including your websites. Google Buzz will also allow webmasters to interact with site visitors in a way that Twitter can’t; visitors can comments your post in a Facebook-style conversation.

Tips For Web Marketing With Google Buzz
