Title: Alexa Toolbar
Post by: Des_D on May 28, 2007, 20:24:51 PM
Alexa is a dynamic toolbar, which offers tremendous information, links and site stats for websites that you might browse on a regular basis.  It also tells you what sites other browsers use, based on your interests.

Alexa is also becoming the standard for measuring site traffic.  So if more APAT members use the Alexa toolbar, then our site ranking will be higher.  Over the weekend, APAT had a higher site ranking than the European Poker Tour, World Poker Tour and World Series of Poker websites.  With your help, we can push this ranking even higher. 

APAT has no affiliate link with Alexa, our sole interest here is in driving site traffic and utilising this information in sponsor negotiations.

Members interested in downloading and using the Alexa toolbar can follow this link.

The problem with Alexa is that it"s fairly US-centric, and as we know, there are more Yanks than Brits.

Also, the Alexa toolbar only works on IE, not Firefox.  So that counts some of us out.

Des - email on its way to you...
