Alexa finally gave Firefox users their own toolbar

Well, I guess the title says it all....We can finally increase our Alexa ratings while we browse our sites from within Firefox...The toolbar is called Sparky, it's actually pretty neat. It sits in the status bar to the far right, gives you a mini graph and live Alexa data....

After you get it installed, I need you to return to this thread daily and visit http://www.shed-n-deck.com.....Okay?...:biggrin:

Nice idea, I will give this a try.

Live link for dowload....http://alexa.com/site/download

I think that if everyone that visits this forum installed the Alexa toolbar, then TriPHP can achieve top 100,000 in no time, and better....Midi, there is a widget that you can use to place your logo on the toolbar and brand it as your own, and then you could offer the download directly from the forum...

Yeah, I was reading that, its now on my list of things to do!
We got close to the 100k not long back till that idiot Rich was let loose on the site.Still,. starting to recover again now.

Nice, thanks for the info!

I got it installed. Says that here is 174,085

now here is 149,082

how does this work exactly?

does your alexa rank rise faster if people viewing your site have the alexa toolbar?

Alexa ranks is purley taken from visitors who have the toolbar, thats why it should not be taken as the definative guide.

cool i will try and get some my reliable members to install it then lol

I also downloaded the toolbar. Though alexa isn't reliable it still fun to see my rank goes high...lol

I agree, its more of a moral boost when you see the figures improve.
After all they have some value however small.

Now 144,480

I have seen my own site go from approx 2,500,000 to 1,250,000 in same time frame

Just to update for those that do not yet have the Alexa Toolbar

TriPhp is now 139,089

My own site is 1/089,221

i don't have the alexa toolbar :sosad:
