    Using the Alexa widget will increase your Alexa ranking without the need to redirect :D. I think even if you make it invisible through css, it still works.

    "Using the Alexa widget will increase your Alexa ranking without the need to redirect :D. I think even if you make it invisible through css, it still works."

    That's awesome! I have been thinking about using the alexa redirect and I guess I really shouldn't. But, now I understand why people display their alexa ranking on their web pages.

    I'm still not sure if I'm going to show off my alexa ranking because I think it is really ugly but if you say I can hide it with css I'll have to hunt around for ways to do it.

    That did open my eyes. I took my widget off a few weeks ago, but I'm thinking about putting it back on.

    I've recently just gotten a blog to the 400,000 range and I'm pretty excited about it. I wonder if the widget being on there for a short length of time did anything to help the ranking....

    Someone mentioned using the redirects, Google got me here so glad I researched it.

    Alexa rank is a tad high but getting there very slowly.

    I read that Alexa redirects had stopped functioning but they seem good to me.

    Don't think I would ever use them instead of genuine navigation. Doesn't do much for a sites image among it's readers.

    It all seems a bit black hat BUT if you are trying to sell ads at the moment you gotta play the Alexa game, surely?

    Best Wishes
