Alexa LogoOur blog has been staying steadily at 180k - 185k for an Alexa Traffic Ranking and now has increased to 195k. The thing that struck us the most is that our blog traffic had increased exponentially since we started our techonrati exchange and aiming for different keywords for S.E.R.P.S.

“Alexa toolbar users’ interests and surfing habits could differ from those of the general population in a number of ways, and we described some of those possible differences on our website. While the vast majority of sites’ rankings were unaffected by such differences, we’ve worked hard on our new ranking system to adjust for situations in which they could matter.

The new rankings should better reflect the interests and surfing habits of the broader population of Web users.”

Looking at that statement they made on their “Official” announcement, We could help but think to ourselves that they were referring to blogs as that is what more and more people each day are reading/creating. So that could explain why numerous blogs got slapped by Alexa when they started implementing their new algorithm.

We have noticed the change on our blog, has anything happened on your blog? (Good or Bad)

    @ Blogatiser - I guess traffic and toolbars aren’t the only thing they judge it on? Only time will tell.

    @ John - Uh oh :D Thanks for the stumbles, I’ll head over to your blog and choose a couple articles to feature on Stumbleupon soon.

    @ Oldsailor - Great job, I wouldn’t know either. ;)

    Currently I’m not ranked on Alexa. I need some more traffic in order to accomplish that. @jsinkeywest How do you send so much traffic? You sent approximately 300 people to my site over the course of a couple of hours. I loved seeing those numbers and want to know what you do to accomplish that.
