Get the Alexa Toolbar. . .

Did you know that there are over 200 million websites and additional websites are being started each day? That’s a lot of websites. It helps to know the ranking of the website when you are visiting websites. I personally recommend installing the Alexa Toolbar to help you know the ranking of the websites you visit.

Some of the main features that the Alexa website provides include . . .

• A ranking by number of all the websites.
• A listing of the hot pages as well as the hot topics.
• A web directory providing the top websites in each category.
• A listing of the top 500 websites — some of the top websites are 1 – Google, 2 – Facebook, 3 – Yahoo!, 4 – You Tube, 5 – Windows Live, 6 – Wikipedia,  7 - Blogger.com, 9 – MSN, 12 – My Space, 14 – Twitter, 19 – WordPress.com, 20 – Amazon.com, and 23 - eBay.
• Search for a website by keyword and refine your search.
• Lookup a website to get traffic information, contact information, or related sites.
• Download the Alexa Toolbar.

I recommend downloading and installing the Alexa Toolbar. The toolbar is FREE and it is customizable! It literally installs in seconds! Some of the features include . . .

• Shows the Alexa traffic rank on the website you are visiting.
• Will find links that are similar to the website that you are visiting.
• See how a site looked in the past.
• See what is popular on the web right now.
• See what other people thought of the website you are visiting or leave a comment.
