Alexa redirects no longer work
If you want to make money the easy way subscribe to my RSS feed, and learn how to make money from your feedreader.
Apparently redirecting using Alexa links no longer works.
I was one of the people that actually went around preaching the fact that redirecting your links using Alexa would actually help you increase your alexa rank.
First this method no longer works. Apparently if you try it now you will get a 404 error. I learned this method because of the post about making money with online image hosts part 2. There is a link in there that I specifically use that redirects to another part of the blog. I used to be one of the sheep that thought it would increase (decrease) my blogs rankings.
Geoffrey Mack, The Project Manager at Alexa has said:
The redirect doesn’t do anything to your rank. The rank is based on one thing only: logs from toolbar usage. I should know, I am the product manager at Alexa….
So yea, if you were using it go back and fix your links. If you were not than please ignore this post.
