How to Achieve Alexa Ranking?

To be fair he got it more or less right. Alexa is a very unpredictable way to guess the site traffic.

Of course you don't need real traffic to look big on Alexa.

I know well that Alexa rank is just a toy. I can bring your site in the top 50K in just a few months with zero effort. BUT! As you can see from the discussion a lot of people consider it an important metrics, reflecting real popularity of a site.

How one can use this delusion? In a lot of ways:
- Sell guest posts on Fiverr for higher price, because his blog is "very popular"
- Sell domain names ranked top 100K on Alexa for $200, instead of their real $5 price.
- Involve new "investors" and keep existing ones in the HYIP or matrix, demonstrating "positive traffic dynamics"

and so on... It is enough? What cats dislike, may be very tasty for dogs

Then you should vote for closing all the Internet marketing forums, blogs and so on, because 99% of the info there are just meaningless paraphrases or meaningless ideas

For me people seriosly discussing DA, PA, MOZ Rank, link juice, domain ages, etc. do the same thing as people discussing Alexa rank. Just a sample. Here's a list of the most popular sites in the autosurf traffic exchange niche sorted by DA and MOZ rank.

10khits.com 53.00 4.30
websyndic.com 50.00 4.10
twistrix.com 45.00 4.10
247autohits.com 44.00 4.00
hit4hit.org 44.00 3.80
alexamaster.net 44.00 3.50
yibbida.com 40.00 3.80
autosurfmax.com 40.00 3.70
feelingsurf.fr 40.00 3.60
autosurfmyth.com 38.00 3.60
klixion.com 33.00 3.10
manyhit.com 25.00 2.90
trafficminers.com 8.00 1.10

Any SEO guru would tell us that the query "top autosurf traffic exchange" must show at least the first 2-3 on the first SERP page, and the last one will appear somewhere on the 10th-20th page. Check this to have fun. So, like you got mad of serious discussion if Alexa rank, I got mad when people try to charge me $100 for the guest posts just becuase their blog has DA 68. The same scum, don't you find?
