DISQUS

Hi Vlad,
i found your blog through scott jangro's affiliate blog lists.

i think it's admirable to want to achieve a high alexa ranking.
i used to want to do that too (and still do).

although i think from a business perspective, you might want to focus more on building a list (you'll get massive leverage there) and income monetization.

personally i feel those two are stronger metrics than just traffic numbers.

Thank you for comment Adrew,

I am not putting much hope in Alexa. I realiaze that achieving high will not increase thu actual traffic to my sites, unless of course you can get on "movers adn shakers" list, but then how qualified my visitors would be?

I am guessing when you talk about "list" you mean the "e-mail list"?

Just saw your blog as well, great job!

hello vlad,
yes, i'm refering to email list.

there are many ways to get targeted and qualified visitors to your site. for example, article marketing can be very effective.

Thanks Andrew,

I have been using EzineArticles. I am not so sure how to employ e-mail marketing, especially for affiliate sites that sometimes have nothing else but products displayed via datafeeds.

Thanks again. I will definetely subsribe to your e-mail list for more tips and advise. ;)

your right about the alexa ranking being likely to fall the very next day!
and adbrite do set pricing according to CTR i'd think...
