Tricks to improve your Alexa rank

August 30, 2008 By: Jojo Category: Blogging, Make Money

Most of webmasters needs their websites Alexa rank improved for many reasons.

1. They need high alexa rank for selling websites, whichs a value addition & price booster on bidding.

2. High alexa rank is required for blogs offering paid reviews. If alexa is in the range of 1 Lakh, webmaster can definitely ask for a higher price per paid review.

3. Paid blogging programs like “PayPerPost” , ReviewMe, sponsoredreviews, Smorty etc. approves blogs based on many factors on which Alexa rank is a major factor. An alexa of 25 lakh is necessary If you wanna make a decent sum from paid blogging programs like Payperpost.

These are some major reasons why webmasters needs their Alexa rank improved! Now you wanna know how?

I will explain some simple & practical steps.

Alexa rank explained!

Alexa rank of a website is measured on the basis of volume of people who visits the site with an Alexa tool bar installed on their web browser like Firefox, IE etc. More the number of visits, higher the Alexa.

Improving methods!

1. First install Alexa Toolbar on your site. You can use Smart Page Rank tool which am using now. It shows  Alexa rank, Page Rank, Whois, Backlinks etc.

2. Set the URL of the website (which you wanna improve alexa) as Homepage in your browser. Now whenever you starts your browser, you will add to your alexa.

3. Ask your friends & close ones to do the same. If you can grab some 10 friends to do like above that would be pretty fine!

4. Go to webmaster forums like Digitalpoint, Sitepoint, Namepros, V7nforums, Webmasterworld etc (if you dunno what am speaking about just Google these names & you will be feeling lucky!) Promote your website in these forums. Use your logic on how to promote… I will say an example, Just go to Freebies section of Digitalpoint forums & offer like “I will review your website for Free on my www.example.com” since all members of webmaster forums like digitalpoint use the alexa tool bar it will add a lot to your Alexa.

5. Apply varieties of above said technique in different forums & multiple number of different ideas on same forums. Use your commonsense to generate new new ideas on this case.

6. Adding an Alexa widget will add a lot to your ranking. Alexa widgets added in your site will help to count those ones who visits the site without an alexa toolbar. If they click in the widget, then it will give more boost. Follow the above given link to make your widget.

7. Many such techniques are available use your sense to find many. Have a look @ Dosh Doshs 20 Quick ways to increase your Alexa rank

MY TIP! Redirection method

I will say a new TIP to increase the Alexa. Anyway I haven’t tried this yet just flashed this idea through my mind. Its a redirection technique. To apply this technique  you need to have a site with high Alexa in hand. Suppose you have a website called www.example1.com with Alexa around 10 Lakhs. Now you need to increase the Alexa of www.example2.com The technique is you may redirect the high alexa domain www.example1.com to www.example2.com I haven’t given a shot to this but I believe its logically true. I think this is a quick & fast technique  which will give you awesome results.

What if you dont have a high alexa site?

Just apply all the conventional techniques & increase one of your sites alexa first. If its a blog, posting some high number of articles (2 or 3 posts per day) will constantly improve your sites Alexa.  After making Alexa HIGH for one of your site, use redirection technique to improve the Alexa of your other sites.

So try out the above methods & have fun!

Questionnaire of Technofirst magazine to Co-founders of Techseol

June 12, 2008 By: Jojo Category: My Scribblings

This is the way how I have answered the questionnaire. You can go through & if interested please give feedbacks.

Questionnaire

1.How has been your association with startup?

So far so good! It all began from association of friends with a common perspective. 2 or 3 years back, when broadband has begun to fledge in kerala we all got exposed to field of internet web publishing. Realising that our individual potentials in online money generation could be well utilized if we could join hands, we have decided to form Techseol – a young student cum professionals venture providing Internet marketing solutions & Internet web publishing solutions. We have floated it as Techseol websolutions India Pvt.Ltd on February 2008. We already have 3 major clients & business talks are going on with many national & international clients. As immediate step, we will move on IT Habitat Centre, Kaloor for future operation on this July. We have a vision to develop Techseol as a leading player in Indian Internet Business by 2010.

2. Why did you join a startup?


A startup is always challenging & it gives freedom of operations. We can experiment our new creative thoughts in a startup, moreover our thoughts has a value. Despite the huge risks involved, a startup like this will give a high reputation, chance to explore new fields, a platform to learn many new concepts & ideas. I will explain more about this on the answer to 5th question.


3. How many people were there in your company?

We have 5 working directors & 5 part time employees at present. On moving to IT Habitat center, kaloor this July, we plan to expand the staff potential by 5 fulltime employees & 10 part time employees. Theres a strong backing from Prospects management consultants, Cochin headed by Mr.George Karunakkal & Prof.Tommy Cherian whom guides us in the way of business management. Finance consultant is M/s Shridhar & Co. Trivandram.


4. What are the major challenges you faced?

Ofcourse like any other startups we have also faced a lot of challenges & hurdles on our way to formation of Techseol. It involves a lot starting from registration procedures, capital raising, to the moral support from family. By gods grace & our strong will we were able to overcome all major hurdles we have faced up to date & we expect a lot more in our way to explore success.

5. What are the advantages of working in a startup?

Well, this is something that requires explanation. For a common man looking from outside, he will not find anything big in working on a startup. Instead he might consider it as foolishness while we have offers from biggies like Wipro, Infosys, UST, Cognizant etc. Now I should answer why? Let me say it in points.

  1. Challenging & rewarding
  2. Freedom of operations
  3. Creative freedom
  4. Opportunity to interact with many eminent business personals
  5. Chance to experiment & explore
  6. Being a part of economic development of my country India
  7. Creation of wealth
  8. Become an employer than becoming an employee
  9. Create a new business culture based on values
  10. An opportunity to take part in overall development of India.

I know the above question needs explanation, but I believe these 10 points are enough to convey some meaning.

6. How is the work life balance in a startup and how are the facilities.

In our case the association is of 5 friends. So what should I say? Work feels like enjoyable really. We are really loving what we are doing, that’s the case. Any professional saying like “I love my work” is enjoying a work-life balance. I am sure on that. Now about facilities, in old days (3 years before) major hurdle faced by all startups were space, unlimited connectivity, uninterruptable power source, computers etc etc. I must say Kerala govt. has done a wonderful job with the innovative concept called “Incubator” in Technopark & Infopark. Any human with a scalable business idea can meet Technopark official with a business plan (must be scalable) for incubation. If they are convinced on your business proposal, you will get plug & play furnished spaces in Technopark @ cheap rates. Also financial assistance is provided by govt. for startups. So I believe conditions at present in kerala are pretty supportive for startups now.


7. Did you ever feel you had to sacrifice your health because of long office timings? Or that the brand you were working on is not well known.

As we are young & have the mileage to run I have never felt like sacrificing on health. We function like normal offices from 9 am to 5 pm in a formal way, but @ many instances we work overtime because its our own & need to finish projects within time limit. About brand! I hope our startup venture has given us a high brand value than a young professional working @ some biggie like Infosys or Wipro. Its just because of the novelty we are having & of the heavy risk involved. What matters is the courage we have shown to face such a risk at this young age. Techseol is on its way on branding as a successful student venture.

8. Any other risks which are there when joining a startup.


Ofcouse! Risks are plenty. I just cant explain here because it differs from business to business, person to person. If you have a strong will & courage to overcome the hurdles you gonna face, then its ok. Major risk will be your own fear itself. At first you must be successful in eliminating your own fear of failure chances, then go on & face the rest boldly. I hope we were able to inspire many of youngsters in Kerala by showing them an example. We would like many other likely ventures from our “gods own country” which will add to economic development of Kerala.

Thank you

First remove piece of WOOD from your eyes ! Kerala Police

May 22, 2008 By: Jojo Category: My Scribblings

Look at the pic above! The people who are obliged to keep law breaks it! Do these type of practices need to be tolerated? The POLICE is vested with responsibility to vanish the Black CD Mafia out of this state. There were many instances in which the police reacted in time, especially the RIAN studio raid, welgate raid etc etc. I appreciate!! but still a question? a single question!

How police gonna convince common people that usage of pirated CD is a punishable crime? How they are gonna create an awareness? One way is to become a role model.. rite? So heres the role model I have seen. My brother took this photo, when we both went to Vagamon mount on the Good Friday! They purchased CDs & they were decent enough to pay the cash…Hahaha!!

Theres a quote in Bible ” First remove piece of WOOD from your eyes, then go and remove ashes from others eyes”

So shall I repeat this?

IPL - is it hurting players reputation?

May 15, 2008 By: Jojo Category: My Scribblings

The very very famous IPL - Indian Premier League , the one which has shown money power of Indian business magnets, the one which has shown crore values of Indian cricketers, one & only one cricket tournament which gained a worldwide attention & generated immense cash (BCCI got about 2000crore rupees with IPL).

What is IPL ?

When expanded it will look like “Indian Premier League” -a form of English Premier League (Football version - club football league ) or a form of NBA tournaments. IPL is its cricket version with a series of 20-20 matches (fastest cricket match) played as a tournament. BCCI is the owner of IPL supported by ICC (International Cricket Council). It includes 8 teams named under different Indian states. Each team includes an Icon player like Sachin for Mumbai, Ganguly for Kolkata & so on. In each match 6 players must be Indian & 5 can be foreign. Icon player is the highest paid of a team. Each team is under the custody of great & powerful Indian business magnets like Vijay Malliya (Bangalore) , Mukesh Ambani (Mumbai) etc. With involvement of bollywood stars like Sharuk & Preity the IPL gained a damn heavy media attention.

How IPL looks to ordinary people?

To many people IPL is club cricket. They are enjoying the different combinations like Sachin-Sanath in a team, Ganguly-Ponting in a team etc etc. People has taken IPL on their hearts with more impact than a world cup cricket. Media is also giving a heavy attention.

What is IPL actually?

IPL is not developed on the basis of sports ethics. Its just a business. I would say, its a damn sexy business idea developed on the brain of Lalith Mody (Business giant of India). Like the way companies purchase something or they acquire small companies, the business tycoons of India purchased all great Indian players.IPL is killing the ethical sports spirit in people. Now players are given crores & they are  just dolls of these tycoons.  Just remember the recent Malliya - Dravid incident!

Mr.Rahul Dravid was a very well respected, well behaved player of India. He was a world focus & was a role model for many young players & a major youth of India. Hes even nicknamed as “Mr.Clean” because of his renowned attitude. Now see,hes just a doll of Malliya. Despite the respect he deserve, despite the fame & authority dravid has, Malliya fights him with abuses for the failure of Bangalore team. The Incident was so pity because Dravid got hit on his cool & clean image he developed over years. Do Dravid deserve this??

What if Mukesh Ambani do this to great Indian Icon Sachin Tendulkar? Hes renowned as worlds greatest cricket player of all time next to or eqaul to Don Bradman. Hes a great icon & role model for many many all over the world. Isn’t this business attitudes hurting players reputation? For Mukesh & Malliya its just business, they want their crores back that all. But in a country where cricket is religion & players are Gods, its too bad to have such practices because this will give impact to a lot of people.

Asin is my favourite

May 07, 2008 By: Jojo Category: My Scribblings

I have a desire to write something here everyday, but TIME is the problem. Now a days I am damn busy with my final year exams, project works, Labs ..Hooo!! But its final naa? last university exams of my B Tech will commence this 20th May. Exams will come & go, but I should continue my blogging rite?

I have no specific topics to write today, so am gonna write about Asin, my favourite actress. Why should I write about her here in my blog? Its just because she has achieved something in her life, shes a great actress, & of all shes not an exposive shit like all others. What should I say about her first? Ofcourse its about her roots. Asin is a born malayali & a made one too. Shes brought up & educated in Kerala. She was fond of  & has participated in  modelling  from child days onwards. She started her acting career with great Mallu director Satyan Anthikad movie “Narendran Makan Jayakantan Vaha”
Guys n Gals am damn sure if she had got stucked to mallu movies alone, she would not have reached a world beyond Cochin. She got a hike in her career with Tamil Movies like “M Kumaran s/o Mahalakshmi “. She has not turned back from there, her career graph is growing in a positive straight line. With a damn superb performance in Gajini she was called to Bollywood by Aamir Khan. At present shes acting with Aamir on his Hindi remake of Gajini.

Asin Photos are pretty to watch. She looks so cute & cool in most photos. Hey! I have not told you the most interesting thing about Asin!! Hehe..

She knows 14 languages in fluent manner. Also she runs many major businesses in Cochin & Chennai. What an awesome girl! Shes damn different from others of her genre. & this might be one of the reason am fond of her, “Shes playing in Multidimensional grounds” which i would like to be ! Same is the nature of acting genious Mohanlal, Hes also a “Multidimensional player” in acting, reading, production,business,cooking,magic,drama,music, his filed goes on.

Rising in Love - a wonderful book by OSHO

April 30, 2008 By: Jojo Category: My Books

Rising in Love by OSHO is an amasing book. I was not so aware of this genious (OSHO) before reading this book. Though I was knowing “who OSHO is” , many of my beliefs about him was in a misunderstood way. What my belief was? “Osho was a man of Free Sex & all, he attracted many people through his magnetic tactics & he directed many through the path of Free sex” I dont know how i got this knowledge, may be from Manorama or so. I think one of my uncle has also told me about OSHO as a “Man of Free Sex“. He also said me that OSHO died out of AIDS. So!!! Hehe…

Actually I dont know what the truth is? I will write here when i gets more knowledge about him. Now I will write short on his book “Rising in Love”. OSHO is the most prolific author in this world. He has wriiten about 650 books on different dimentions & major ones related to MEDITATION.

“Rising in Love” like the major ones, it also emphasize about Meditation, Need of meditation & how pure meditation can give you ultimate enlightment. He refers to enlightment as realising yourself, its realising your own soul. He begins the book with “Love” between man & women. Osho points out that, unless a love affair is so conscious it will create a great anguish! In those first pages of book, theres something that went inside me deeply. He says, every affair is a meeting of the Opposites. Both lovers are different at each point of life. So if you are aware of this fact, then the meeting of the opposites will be a wonderful oppurtunity to understand the other ones  purely different perspective.

The book advances to the relationship between Master & Desciple in the middle pages. Its also wonderful because Osho speaks in the language of Heart (where Heart is more wise than Intellect). He also speaks about Sri Budha & his concepts of “Nirvana“(Nirvana means going to state of zero), then about Sir. Aurobindo in detail.

I have wondered many tmes, why the Western people run after the Indian Mystics like Sri sri Ravishankar, Sri Amruthananthamay , ofcourse Bagvan Rajanish (OSHO) & many many. This question existed in me as a wonder itself till I read this book. This book gave me a great knowledge that, The West know nothing about Meditation! Meditation is a concept thats purely EASTERN developed by Eastern Mystics to realise themselves, to enlighten or to realise ones own soul. As the western people dont know anything, they will get inspired on these concepts of “Enlightment through Meditation” very easily. Thats why we are seeing a massive number of western desciples to Amrithananthamay, Ravishankar & so on. Now getting “Enlighted” means going to the Zero state of mind & soul, where you will be as Innocent as possible. Mystics say that you will experiance your soul at that state & its the maximum experiance a human can have in his life. Now all these westerns & other desciples will donate their entire “Belongings” (Dollars! Dollars) to the trusts of mystics (like Sri.Amritha, Sri Ravishankar etc etc). This is the reason “Why trusts of these mystics are so Rich” that they can donate even 200 crore rupees in just seconds!

Oh No! I went out of topic!!! I was reviewing that book “Rising in Love” hehe.. Ok. I will say the book is amasing to read & has given me some wonderful knowledge which is very worthy.

You will also get to know that, West is more Intellect & East is more Heart oriented. I will explain this concepts later, but keep in mind “Heart is more wise than Intellect”

Rating: 9/10  (Must read).

Though Forrest is a bit “slow” with handicapped legs,he becomes a fast runner…when naughty ones try to beat him & throws stones @ his back, he starts run..run..run…& run..so he becames the fastest runner..lol. Later finishing his schooling, Forrest joins the US Army for a wonderful career. There also doing some blunders, he grabs in the BRAVERY award..lol!ts not ending..he continues by becoming a great business man with his BABA GUMP corporation… & it continues..

Entire story is built in a special way that it always keeps the viewer in an entertaining mood. Love of Gump towards Jenny his one & only one girl friend is shown in a beautiful way.

November 05, 2007 By: Jojo Category: SEO

Page Rank

Page Rank is a system of measuring a webpages Importance. Actually its Googles measure of importance of a webpage. Maximum value of Page Rank is 10 and minimum is 0. The Page Rank system was introduced by Google and its the Key algorithm of Google Search engine, in executing effective Search Queries.

Page Rank system or its idea was found by Laary Page (co founder of Google). He named his idea with his Surname “Page” Later when he developed Google with Sergy Brin, they used this page rank measure as their key algorithm.

How to check your websites Page Rank?

Its very simple. Many tools are available for checking Page Rank of your website. you can do this on http://prchecker.info/check_page_rank.php
A page rank measure above 4 is good

How Important is Page Rank?

Its very important for Google search engine. Entire search queries in Google is based on Page rank. If you have a website with PR 0 , your site will not have much traffic from google searches. If you are having PR 4 , you are OK with this, you will get something from google. For websites with PR 5 or higher, the value these websites has in google is very large. All the contents that you post in a High PR website will get listed in google very soon.

To say in simple way, Google crawler will visit a High PR website frequently to fetch its contents.

This is a longterm process. I will write more on this in the coming posts.
