Thanks for the inclusion. Externalities are fun, eh?

And as FS said, congrats on breaking the million mark!

Hopefully I can keep directing some more people your way if you keep writing awesome guest posts for me! :p

I’ll have to do my best to keep going higher and higher, I suppose. Next stop, breaking 900,000!

Yup, definitely something to shoot for. My original goal 2 months ago was to shoot to break 500,000 by year-end. Now the goal is to break 100,000. It’s just a fun thing to do, and the ranking really does correlate with traffic.

Ah, okay; clearly, I’ve done something wrong; I see what you’re talking about now. I think (and this is just wild speculation on my part, frankly), that I accidentally just copied and pasted the example badge or something.

Still, it’s something to shoot for, hunh?

Go to alexa.com and type in your website. The 2,000 ranking on your badge is off. If you had 2,000, you’d probably be making millions/yr from your site!

Gotta redo the badge and claim your ranking.

You’re welcome as always, FS; keep writing good posts, and I’ll keep linking.

As for the Alexa thing, I’m a bit confused by your comment; I see 2000 something when I view the Alexa badge on my front page. No where near 1 million. I’m not sure what’s happening, but we seem to be seeing different things.

Thanks for the shout out Rog. I enjoyed reading your guest post on MLROI and will be including it in my Katana wrap.

Congrats also for breaking the 1 million Alexa ranking mark here!

Cheers, Sam-urai
