This has really nothing to do with SEO, but I thought I’d throw it in for the hell of it. Infact this really isn’t even useful, it’s just cool and neat on how it works.
In the Google FAQ it talks about the rel=”prefetch” command. This command(supported by both new versions of firefox and IE) in a sense forces the user to click on a link. The user doesn’t actually go to the link; their browser just fetches the url. The idea behind this is to make the next page download faster, assuming they do click on it. This is really only useful for splash pages. Ie. Click here to enter pages.
However this command can be used to cheat on Alexa
My Alexa Ranking <-removed because it no longer works. Use the xml.alexa.com url instead
This will link tag will cause almost every visitor to my site to pull the Alexa toolbar API and count it as a visit to my site, whether or not they actually have the toolbar.
Anyone promote on top sites lists?
Fun stuff eh!
interesting find
there are some curious uses for such an exploit
Looks interesting..
I agree with you Pal!
I’d be interested to find out ways to make this work for you… The main thing I can think of is to use the Alexa cheat on a site that has a low Alexa ranking, then really promote that site so you get a lot more hits - and if possible get onto the “Movers and Shakers” list - a nice link back from Alexa? Would this class as spam or Blackhat SEO?
I guess I’m a little late on this one, but I just stumbled across your blog and there is a lot of great information here! When I tried to open up the alexa link you are loading using the rel=prefetch attribute, it didn’t resolve for me. Is this method still working for you and if so how did you go about formulating that url? Thanks for the great info!
This is a dead technique.
Alexa changed the way their api pulls.
dang, I thought xml.alexa.com would work!
I’m not sure if it works, here’s a php script to do this:

the first one didn’t work. Did anyone try the xml? I was told it doesn’t work either.
very interesting.. i’m not sure if it still works. i’ve always been dubious at alexa traffic rankings anyway.
Nice trick but does it still work?
Interesting information, but I doubt it works.
don’t think this one still works but good read/
Prob does not work now. Good tip though
Hmm, a hack for Alexa without the need to download and install software. Great Job
nice article.
does it still work now?
this really can be pretty useful when others evaluate your site for a sale.
for some reason, people still think alexa ranking matters, so they use it as a factor in determining your website’s worth.
does this still work, eli?

Too bad most of such tricks don’t work now!

Very nice site kang….
Just looked at your alexa rank and its very high are you using the cheat?
Too bad it doesn’t work anymore.I definitely started late with this whole thing.
This is actually quite useful to me as I have a splash page which takes you into a flash website. Perhaps I should use this, so it doesn’t take my visitors forever to load my flash site.
maybe now this cheat is not working
This cheat is save?
There is another way to boost alexa rank?

I do agree with all of the ideas you have presented in your post. They’re really convincing and will definitely work. Still, the posts are too short for newbies. Could you please extend them a bit from next time? Thanks for the post.
I’ll second that
Sorry, but I don’t think it will work

Yep so true
Yes, this no longer works thanks to changes in the way Alexa API works. However it is a neat way to get some keyworded pages preloaded!
she cheated on me too and took all my money.
Lol seriously?
I’ll try this cheat/tweak to see how it works. i’m not fully convinced right now about it.

Monteverde age suggests that the mainstream peopling of the Americas - to the territory that is now Argentina-was performed following the coast for long stretches in a relatively short time, also holds the possibility of a settlement Australoid that may have entered from Australia around the thirteenth millennium. C. , using the costs of the existing glacier shell in the last glaciation . This hypothesis seeks to explain the evidence of early settlement of South America, and the features fisiotípicas of huárpidos (including those called comechingones ), and some characteristics of the pámpidos , hardly compatible with the model that holds the exclusive settlement of the continent by Beringia .
its not working
