Hi fellows. I´m back from another night shift till midnight.
Tonight, I´d like to share a bit of my experiences with EC and Alexa rank.
If you´re looking to improve your Alexa rank, Entrecard can help. I joined EC in July 2008 and when I´m active making drops (and receive a good percentage back) my Alexa rank improves substantially.
As you know, EC is a blogger´s community and, by my experience, I can tell a good number of this webmasters has Alexa toolbar installed.
Alexa only counts your website visitors that has their toolbar installed. If you´re looking to improve your ranks (having a lower number), you´ll need plenty of this type of visitors.
Since I started my offline job, I haven´t been very active in EC and my current Alexa rank clearly shows it. I once reached 90 k but now I only have around 216,5 k, a huge difference.
In my Portuguese art blog, some days I have over 500 visitors but once many of this visitors doesn´t have Alexa toolbar, my current rank is very low.
In sum, by my experience, blogger´s communities can help us more in acheiving a better Alexa rank than searches´ traffic, unless this visitors are webmasters.
See you later, after some deserved rest.

Alexa: No Data?
Hi.
Last week, I noticed that Night Clicks´ Alexa Ranks had decreased.
First, I thought it was due to a reduction of EC visitors with Alexa Toolbar installed but when I took a look at my EC statistics and found that the number of visitors had increased. I couldn´t verify if all EC droppers have Alexa installed so the question remained in my head.
While doing my EC round I read more info about this topic, Sasha Says Website had noticed it too but she sent an e-mail to Alexa. She received a prompt reply from Alexa explaining they were having problems with their service due to a new server. You can read Sasha´s post about Alexa ranks too.
After reading Sasha post things were clear, it was Alexa´s problem not mine. Yesterday, I found some of my blogs displaying "No Data". I don´t know if you noticed that but I did.
Alexa Sparky for Firefox displays ranks but some widgets don´t. I guess they´re still having problems because today I found the same, "No Data".
Alexa ranks is important for bloggers (like me) that monetize their sites trough advertising. Many advertisers rely on Alexa data to measure traffic and value a website or blog. To download Alexa tools visit: http://download.alexa.com/
See you soon.
