If you want to find out which sites are the most popular on the internet, check the statistics on www.alexa.com. The higher the Alexa ranking of your site, the more you will attract lucrative advertising deals, and if you are looking for a site to place adverts on, the highest rated sites are most likely to increase the click rate on your adverts. The top Alexa sites are Google, Facebook, YouTube and Yahoo, but the ranking is not determined in the same way as search engines. Alexa rates sites according to a combination of average daily visitors and pageviews over the past 3 months. So although Facebook has more inward links, Google is rated higher on Alexa because it has more pageviews.

So how can you improve your ranking? Well first of all, download and install the Alexa toolbar and get as many sites as possible to do the same. Every time a site with the toolbar is visited, a click will register with Alexa. You can put a download link on your site to prompt visitors to install the toolbar, and you can add Alexa widgets to individual pages. But the way to increase traffic to your site and get your ranking up is to make sure your content is of good quality and appeals to those who are likely to install the Alexa toolbar – typically internet professionals, and marketing and business development professionals.
