Short answer first: Alexa.com and the Alexa Traffic Rank are retired — chasing an “Alexa ranking” is no longer relevant. Amazon discontinued the Alexa.com service on May 1, 2022, so any advice that treats Alexa rank as an active, meaningful KPI is outdated. (Wikipedia: Alexa Internet; BleepingComputer report).

Context on the thread: , and were right to focus on site authority and SEO in principle, and ’s traffic-exchange idea explains why “fast wins” attract attention — but traffic exchanges and bought/low-quality visits produce noisy data and rarely help business outcomes. Search engines and industry guidance warn that manipulative link/traffic tactics are risky; paid/unnatural link schemes and artificial traffic can be ignored by algorithms or trigger manual issues. (See Google’s link-spam guidance and industry coverage.) (Google Search Central link spam update; SEJ on paid links).

Practical, current steps to act on instead:

  • Treat measurable business metrics (conversions, organic users, retention) as the goal, not vanity ranks.
  • Install/verify Google Analytics 4 and Google Search Console, track acquisition → behavior → conversions, and use real-user metrics (Core Web Vitals) to prioritize fixes. (; Search Console)
  • Run a technical audit (speed, mobile, structured data), publish helpful content aimed at user intent, and pursue editorial outreach or partnerships for relevant referrals — earned links beat shortcuts every time. Follow the SEO Starter Guide for fundamentals. (Google SEO Starter Guide)

If a public ranking/benchmark is still desired, use modern competitive tools (SimilarWeb, Semrush, Ahrefs) and — when available — “verified” data connections rather than toolbar-based estimates. For verification/benchmarking, SimilarWeb accepts owner-provided analytics for more accurate public pages. (; Ahrefs overview)

Bottom line: stop chasing an obsolete Alexa metric, focus on sustainable traffic that converts, measure it with GA4/Search Console, and use reputable competitive tools for external comparisons.

It takes a lot of work. You need to allocate at lease 1 hour a day creating back links and anchor tex. Also, look at the backlinks a competitor has used and use them. Age on a web site also helps.

Create more and more backlinks for your sites. And backlinks should quality links. For raised alexa rank, do more and more seo work for your site. It is not too difficult.

HI, You can use the Traffic Exchange to increase your Alexa Rank https://www.alexamaster.net/Master/Profile/65913. This site acts as a traffic exchange between people with established Alexa Toolbar. I use this site for 6 days, and allready received 2000 unique visitors. SCR1.png

Hi Vlad,

I clicked the link to your site and got very confused. You're saying here that it acts as a traffic exchange based on the Alexa Toolbar. That reminds me of the old Clickthru.net network that I used to use back in the late 90s!! I understand exactly what you're trying to do there, and kudos for that.

Howeve,r when I clicked on your link, it seemed like some kind of confusing dating site to meet singles. I instantly bailed, and was very confused.
