Indexing Web Pages

There are four parts to an engine that you need to know about for optimization purposes:

1. The spider is a program that goes out across the internet, looks for and gathers up web
   pages.
2. The database is where the spider will store the pages that it finds.
3. The search engine website, is where searchers go to pull up information
   from the database.
4. The algorithms are programs that determine which sites will come up when searchers type in
   a query at the search engine website.

Get into the search engines database:

• The spider will automatically find your site from a link on someone else’s site which is the
  path we recommend if you can get 1 or more quality inbound link(s).
• You submit your URL so that the spider will come out and find it.

What Happens When I Submit my URL to a Search Engine?

First, the search engine’s spider visits your URL immediately and schedules your page for inclusion in he search engine’s database.

Second, usually within a few weeks, the spider comes along and places your page(s) into its database. There is no telling how many pages deep the spider will crawl or how many pages it will place in the database. Usually, on the first time around, it will be only a few pages - possibly only the home page.

Third, the spider revisits your page(s) to grab any changes you’ve made. (The old term for this was “automatic update.”) Once a page is in the database, the spider usually revisits every few weeks. The spider will also begin to crawl your site more deeply and place more and more of your pages into the database.

Alexa Rank is a ranking system which bases its ranking schema on the level of traffic each website receives from the number of people who visit a website with the Alexa toolbar installed.

See Alexa’s definition of the Alexa site:

The traffic rank is based on three months of aggregated historical traffic data from millions of Alexa Toolbar users and is a combined measure of page views and users (reach). As a first step, Alexa computes the reach and number of page views for all sites on the Web on a daily basis.

The main Alexa traffic rank is based on the geometric mean of these two quantities averaged over time (so that the rank of a site reflects both the number of users who visit that site as well as the number of pages on the site viewed by those users).

The three-month change is determined by comparing the site’s current rank with its rank from three months ago. For example, on July 1, the three-month change would show the difference between the rank based on traffic during the first quarter of the year and the rank based on traffic during the second quarter.

The important of increasing your Alexa rank

Webmasters, advertisers and ad networks use your blog’s Alexa rank as a gauge to determine the worth of a link on your website. If you depend on link or site selling as a form of monetization you’ll definitely want to increase your Alexa rank, because it’ll increase your bargaining power when it comes to ad pricing.

So, the Alexa rank is very important. Then I’ll try practicing on 20 Quick Ways to Increase Your Alexa Rank.

Below is the list that I have done to increasing Alexa rank :

• Install the Alexa toolbar or Firefox’s SearchStatus extension and set your blog as your homepage.
• Put up an Alexa rank widget on your website. I don’t care about it after I found (July, 31 2007) Take control of your Alexa ranking!.
  

  That’s why I installed an Alexa Site Widget on my blog. I don’t know if it is a coincidence or not but I went from 4,080,035 to 1,364,067 in just a few days. If my theory is correct then every visitor to my blog downloads the Alexa site widget when they visit my blog and that is how Alexa receives data on every visitor.

• Write or Blog about Alexa. It’s what I do now.
• Flaunt your URL in webmaster forums. Set your website URL as your signature.
• Write content that is related to webmasters.
• Use Alexa redirects on your website URL. Try this: http://redirect.alexa.com/redirect?www.bisnis-net.info. Replace bisnis-net.info with the URL for your website.
• Try Alexa autosurfs. Do they work? Maybe for brand new sites. Note that there be problems when you try to use auto surfs alongside contextual ads like Adsense. They aren’t also long term solutions to improving your Alexa Rank so I suggest using with caution.

And the Result

I am start to improve my Alexa rank
