I have the Alexa rank widget and use redirect URL, and the have worked very well for me. I don't use Alexa toolbar because my anti-virus software consider it as "spyware" lol :)

Alexa is tricky and unless your site is more than 100k the results are not
accurate or as accurate as they should be.

take a look at this post: http://www.thebeefjerkyblog.com/3-ways-to-increase-your-blog-traffic/

There are three ways to do this, but two effective ways.

1. Redirect URL - No real proof that this works

2. Download the Plugin/ widget and install on your site - very effective

3. Download the Alexa toolbar - It records data of everyone who uses it and visits your sites.

* Do you have a computer at work or a community computer? Set your site as the default page, install the toolbar so that whenever someone gets online your site shows up and the data gets collected... instant!

3. Get all the linkbacks that you can get - The most effective

Beside installing an alexa plugin on your site, the other method is to boost your visitor traffic.

I also have the traffic rank on mine since I started. And redirections are another great way to do so.

A note... Dont place the Alexa Redirect URL in this thread or we will have to remove the thread as BC doesnt allow alexa redirects on the site.

Of course, if you want to link to another site with an example thats ok.
