I’ve broken the Alexa 200K mark!
 
All that thanks to Entrecard and not my content really. I have not been generating any traffic at all to this blog because I have not taken the time to update it. Anyway, Entrecard + good content is killer if you are a beginning blogger. Not that Alexa is important […]

After this blog Alexa fell from 170K t0 460K due to Alexa changing it’s algorithm almost a month ago, I noticed there was no changes in any of my Alexa rankings in all my websites.

According to Alexa most of my traffic come from the United States. That can’t be right!
I thought almost all my traffic is from Malaysia.

I noticed a big drop in my Alexa from 170K to 460K. At first I was disappointed but I now know from the other blog posts the fall is across the board. Everybody had their Alexa rankings “adjusted”.

You know the Alexa redirect technique that uses a URL like

This was my last Alexa post update in August.

This frog just made another leap in Alexa ranking.

It’s surprising to me as I’ve not been active and this site has not been getting much traffic.

In about 2 weeks another million rank jump. So now I’ll be reaching top one million quite soon. The rate of improvement has slowed perhaps because of the lack of posts here. Pathethic eh? Since I have Google PR of 0/10, Alexa is one of the only metrics I am looking at to see how […]

Only 4 days and it’s an incredible 1.8 million position jump. Is it too much to hope to be top 1 million within this month ?

I love the fact that this is a brand new blog and I’m starting from zero.
After installing WordPress I chose an Adsense centric theme from http://www.sapiensbryan.comThe next logical thing to do is to install stat monitoring tools.
I’m displaying Alexa traffic ranking here although I’ve questioned Alexa’s reliability before. But since most of the paid […]
