Got to be worth trying, will be interesting to see how your Alexa rank improves over the next couple of weeks.

Great, thanks for sharing mate.

I'll download it and check it out when I get home from work :)

I just installed this plugin on one of my blogs, but I cannot see the Alexa Redirect URL active. Have you installed this plugin here on Connected Internet?

GL, breaking the 10000 wall is HUGE.

Amish · 2 years ago

Please do post your experience after a week or so. Whether it helped your alexa ranks and did not hamper the activity of googlebot and your google rankings. Will wait for your positive review before trying it out.

@thilak

The link should only be visible when you click on a link. Watch carefully in the status bar when you click on an internal link on my site

Brown Baron · 2 years ago

Sounds like the best of both worlds. I just might try this out.

Martin · 2 years ago

I can't remember where I read it but someone from Alexa confirmed that this does not influence the Alexa rank at all

Everton · 2 years ago

can anybody provide proof?

Angie · 2 years ago

I will be waiting to see how it works for you. My Alexa is going up on ALL my blogs.

Nirmal · 2 years ago

If it doesnot give any influence on Alexa ranking, its not worthy to use it. But again there is no solid evidence. Alexa system itself is confusing.

Shashank · 2 years ago

You already has a awesome Alexa .....sooner or later you will be breaking that mark...what are you so worry about :D

Everton · 2 years ago

You can always have a better rank and my rank has been creeping downwards over the last couple of months - down 3k, even though my traffic has been increasing

Ajay · 2 years ago

Do make a new post with the results of your experiment

Everton · 2 years ago

Ajay!!! You're alive!!!!

Shashank · 2 years ago

Your Alexa may be down because your competitors are gaining heavily on traffic than your site as Ajay said do post the results of this plugin.

Everton · 2 years ago

@Shashank

possibly, but my traffic has gone up significantly over the same period. Also, I check my rank and traffic everyday so I'm familiar with my trends and the current Alexa trend isn't in line with the past.

I am afraid on another thing now. This plugin as I understand gives different URL to the user but not Google, which is strongly agains googles scope. When a page shows different content to crawlers and real users google penalizes that site, as of I know. A strong proof, I read that a famous new site which was within 5000 in alexa was penalized for hiding some text from user but showing it to crawlers. Can some one give me clear detail on this?

Web Design · 2 years ago

But would one be sure that its not going to effect the ranking in google short term or long term as I think google is a first priority

Harishankar · 2 years ago

You will not see the effect so quickly as it is linked to the Google's page ranking which is calculated once is 3 months (in approx). And noone knows if google still cares for pagerank stuff in their algo. But I can tell you for sure, your internal page weightage give by google will go down... As the internal linking gets affect.

For a simple example: how would you rank a best page from a site. The page would be the one which gets top number of links from other pages within your site. And with this plugin google see's no page linking to the other directly which will put a confusion in to the algorithm... And you'll defenitly see some effect with this plugin... Anyway I am not sure on these things as I haven;t tested it myself and its only a guess...

Mark from Bloglyne · 1 year ago

@E - Are you still using this plugin? Did you notice any difference in your Alexa ranking?
