Link To eGO

[Artimus]

Most of us have Facebook and MySpace pages, and some of us have our own sites. eGO could use some help in building our Alexa ranking by having links on your sites.

The link can be as simple as a www.EdgeGamers.org text anywhere on the page. If that will fit into the layout of your page, we'd certainly appreciate the help.

Does the Alexa Rating work on clicks or is it enough that the Hyperlink gets "viewed" by anyone looking at my facebook/myspace page?

 

[Artimus]

Good question. Anyone have an answer to that?

 

[ZombieBait!]

If somebody makes a good looking banner or two that lead the person to the site when they clicked on it I would post that on my Myspace site.

PM me if this was already created pretty please :]

Alexa's traffic rankings are based on the usage patterns of Alexa Toolbar users and data collected from other, diverse sources over a rolling 3 month period. A site's ranking is based on a combined measure of reach and pageviews. Reach is determined by the number of unique Alexa users who visit a site on a given day. Pageviews are the total number of Alexa user URL requests for a site. However, multiple requests for the same URL on the same day by the same user are counted as a single pageview. The site with the highest combination of users and pageviews is ranked #1.

Alexa's traffic rankings are for top level domains only (e.g. domain.com). We do not provide separate rankings for subpages within a domain (e.g. www.domain.com/subpage.html) or subdomains (e.g. subdomain.domain.com) unless we are able to automatically identify them as personal home pages or blogs, like those hosted on Geocities and Tripod. If a site is identified as a personal home page or blog, its traffic ranking will have an asterisk (*) next to it: Personal Page Avg. Traffic Rank: 3,456*. Personal pages are ranked on the same scale as a regular domain, so a personal page ranked 3,456* is the 3,456th most popular page among Alexa users.

The icons are sloppy but it didnt take all of 10 minutes either:

Heres an even lighter PNG ( >10kb)which I thought had a really cool retro look about it.

 

[Iceman {Ky}]

Is there anyway to setup that icon as a link?

eGO currently ranks 125,449 on Alexa. Woo!

Oh and 28,292 for U.S. only websites.

So does it help just having the link? Or do we need to actually get people to click on it?

I couldnt make any sense of the details that jaxory posted...

Linking will help out especially with regard to Google PageRank.

you need to have people click and hopefully have a look around.

to make the images above linkable:

[url=http://edgegamers.org][img]IMAGE LOCATION[/ img][/ url]

In Firefox right click desired image and copy link location. in IE right click and view image properties.

This is BBCode. Chances are you'll need to use HTML if you're placing it on a personal website. I will be adding a 'Link to eGO' page to the website shortly with code available.

I have three video sites, I'll see what I can do.
