And as I mentioned in the comments above, the lower you go, the more it's like everybody trying to get out of the same exit door at the same time. :) Thanks for sticking with it SOB

I have no idea why it went lower but it *might* be the widget. Jury is still out. :) Ok, I started out at 245.797 and today I’m 212,956. I have no idea why it went lower but it *might* be the widget.

And some have even reported that their numbers came back and in some cases even a little better, so that change that Alexa did in mid-April affected most people. But not me, I started this experiment before the change. Sadly I have stopped moving for my longest period. About 2 weeks now and no change; of course I'm also not "hustling" for traffic like I normally do since I've been building 4 other blogs. Hi Gireesh

Strangely, we are seeing a consistent increase in the number of unique visitors through Statcounter.com, the changes in Alexa ranking are slightly dis-aligned. Wondering, how to make our visitors install Alexa Tool bar!!! Gireesh Even my website’s ranking dropped, though by couple of thousands only.
