Today I broke the 200k barrier and am proud to have an Alexa rank of 199,221

 

I had an Alexa rank of 18,500,000 at the beginning of September

A rank of 3,500,000 when I accepted the challenge on the 9th September

 

Thanks everyone for all your support.

My challenge now is to try to break the 100k barrier.

I cant imagine that will be easy

Congrats!  Sounds like I'm right on your pace.  215,000 currently, around 3 million when I installed the Alexa toolbar a month or so ago.  Just started blogging Sept 11 2013, so I'm feeling pretty good since I'm about to break 200k within 2 months of commencing blogging.

That's very good, congrats on the quick work! And yes, the next 100,000 will take you a bit, but it's not impossible if you keep publishing good content. Good luck on the next goal!

That's insanely quick. Well done! How'd you do? What brought the traffic on so quickly?

to be brutally honest – the Alexa ranking is a very poor indicator of traffic.

I bust the 200k barrier on the ww.getrichwithme.com without getting what i consider to be a large volume of traffic.

Alexa looks at how many other alexa badge users visit  sites as the determination for its metric. All of us Yakazie/PF bloggers have the  alexa button on our sites – which results in an inflated alexa ranking with all of us encouraging each other to visit and comment on each others blogs.

 

I also run a site for a fishing club – the fishing club site gets 5 times more traffic than http://www.getrichwithme.com but only has an alexa ranking of 4,500,000 – speaks volumes

 

Maybe page and domain authority are better indicators?
