Basically, you will need to understand what Alexa.com does. Alexa is founded in 1996 and provides massive amount of data for webmasters till today. Alexa has developed a toolbar used by many people. And in return, you get something back.

What is Alexa toolbar?
Alexa toolbar is no different from any other toolbar you can find on the Internet. It allows you to customize it the way you like, by adding widgets like Facebook or Twitter. The toolbar indicates the Alexa rank of the website you are viewing and also other information. Here is something that is most important.

Alexa rank indicates the level of traffic of a particular website. This data is gathered from Internet users who use the Alexa toolbar to visit the website.

As mention earlier, Alexa rank determines the level of traffic that a website receives. Thus, the better your rank, it shows that there is high level of traffic to your website and this makes your website more valuable! Advertisers and Ad Networks uses Alexa rank to gauge the worth of your website. Now you know why you should increase your Alexa rank.

How do you increase your Alexa rank?
Its simple! It takes only mintues to do so. Install Alexa toolbar and make your website as your homepage. Add Alexa widget in your website. This will not help you increase much of your Alexa rank if you do not post quality content. You will need to attract a firm level of traffic. Recommend your readers to install the toolbar too. Next, publicize your website or blog. This can help you gain recognition and thus, increase your traffic. Auto-surf and manual-surf websites may help increase your Alexa rank a little. But I recommend manual-surf than auto-surf websites. Auto-surfers do not read and may not even look at your website. They might be leaving their computer switch on and doing something else. Manual-surf requires the surfer to click to the next website before gaining a credit. Hence, your website will definitely be seen by them.

Here are some manual-surf website(s) to help you out. EasyHits4U pays $0.30 for each 1000 sites that you view. You will also get 50 free credits and 500 text ad impression after viewing your first 50 sites. There are many more benefits on EasyHits4U.
