HaHa Daniel, this is a good idea. I’ve been tracking my daily changes on a 3×5 card at my desk. I guess I can just use your chart since you are taking the challenge to a new level.
Great job young man,
Jeff

Thank-you Master,
I like my 3×5 card. I acts as a reminder for me and all my co-workers are going nuts trying to figure out what the numbers mean. Haha I love messing with them.

So how does this work exactly? Do you just track everyone or are you supposed to visit everyone? Thanks!

Ideally we’d all be visiting each other’s site with the toolbar and our numbers would increase, but check out FS’s original post where he describes several other ways to increase your Alexa ranking.

Bad ass! The only thing I would add is a % change, since 846 for Big Pete is a whole different story than a 846 for me.

Just an idea to share… I use Google reader. I set up a folder with all my Alexa blog feeds and give them priority when reading blogs… Most days, I don’t have time to cover them all but this means virtually every day (sometimes every other) yours (the samurai list) gets preference.
For the others, I generally only read in Google, for Alexa blogs I always link to the site. I’m assuming this makes a difference. Someone tell me if I am wrong!

I was thinking about this last night. Short of writing a macro, there may be an easy “duct-tape repair” method that would still accomplish the goal (update automatically), but not be as clean.
Dan, I will go through it some more and can get with you later if you’re interested.

If I knew php and mysql better, I’d create an app that would update the table once a day (I still might do it just for fun). Then we could have a webpage that would display different sort orders and different percentage changes (over 1 week, 2 weeks, month, etc) calculated daily. Not to mention the datamining potential on down the pipe (tuesdays vs friday… etc) per site, and composite…
But, we’re addicted enough already? Right? Wouldn’t that make it worse?
If anyone would like that, I could start working on it (it would probably take me a few weeks, maybe even a month since I’m a php, mysql nub…).

A month? You know how many people will go through withdrawal!
Great idea. Talked with Dan about it last night some. It’s always worth putting the time/energy to make a quality product the first time than going back and revising it later.
As far as some of your ideas, aren’t those things already provided in Alexa? Were you thinking more data extraction or calculation/manipulation?
Appreciate both you and Daniel stepping up to the plate.

@FinEngr
LOL, yeah, a month would be a long time… I was going to do my thing in parallel, so we would still use the spreadsheet method (which is very sweet), while I was going to try to throw something together.
Dan found a way to script out the extraction! Good Job Dan!!!
I was just thinking out loud in my post. I’m a SQL guy by trade, and we love to massage data… Most of the things I talked about aren’t really necessary or all that interesting (except to me
).
I’ll keep playing with it because if I do it right (by making it somewhat generic), I can use the code for other future projects unrelated to the Alexa Challenge too.
Again, GREAT JOB Dan, he’s the one that has done all of the great tracking efforts with this. I was just lobbing out some ideas I had…
The most important piece was making the task automated or scripted (which Dan was able to accomplish)!

Update, update, update…I need my update! (shaking violently) LOL Looks like I am not the only one to come here for my Alexa crack rock. I’m starting to get fidgety. I’m just hoping that Daniel waits just long enough that my Alexa ranking has time to drop on more time. (That happens around 5a.m.) LOL the fact that I know that makes me feel like a looser. I guess I will settle for the Google Analytics buzz for this evening.
Thanks again for doing this Daniel!

Daniel, you are rocking it dude! 61,000 jump! Great job! i still dropped 30,000 but want more!
[Reply]
Wow, look at the progress of practically everybody! Well done everyone!
Also, given that Wise Bread is changing the rules on us by adding more and more blogs that are off shoots of major publications (see the newest #1 and #2 rank), it makes me happy that we are keeping this challenge purely as independent personal finance bloggers!
I’ll be coming up with an update on the challenge in a week or two, so stay tuned.

Yeah, the catch is that those 2 websites aren’t even real independent money blogs… They are online newspapers, that have a money section. I doubt they would have such a high alexa ranking if they stood alone as independent pf money blogs…
I wonder if wisebread even realizes that the new entries are online newspapers sections?
I guess someone will come up with a more pure (only) independent personal finance blogs if it gets too weighted down with such entries…

[Reply]
One way to smooth out fluctuations for the percentage is to take geometric averages over longer periods, e.g. suppose the rank was 173, 170, 171, 165, for four weeks, you’d calculate 1-(165/173)^1/3.

@Daniel,
I don’t see significant value in daily reporting (for the group). The fluctuations are too dependent on external factors. But for this reason, it would be good for individuals to track. Ex: It’d be nice to see how your ranking jumps after a guest post or promotional offer.
Maybe I’m just biased because my posting is erratic
You got me thinking, and something that could return a number of benefits would be to track our group’s progress vs. the general PF blogging market.
A rough idea, it could be broken down into current rankings like you have now, aggregated from some source (here’s where my ??? comes in), and using the weekly median (or if you prefer, the average) of each range to track our progress. Just like with stocks, we could see who the market leaders & laggards are. If everyone continues along the honorable path, we could use that information to focus our efforts on commenting/tweeting/promoting those who didn’t meet the benchmark.
The marketing benefit of this could be as the group grows, and if the group continues to outperform the general PF blogging market, than more people will want to join the group because there’s real results with real data to support that growth.
Ever see that commercial where these guys pitch this awesome idea, the boss gives them the go-ahead, and they reply, “oh no, we just come up with the ideas”…. Alright Dan, there’s the idea – get to work!
[Reply]
I am hoping to break 200,000 by the next update. I too wish I could see my starting rank, but since I am not the one doing all of the work to provide this information, I am good with what you did. LOL

I think the widget really helped me. I tried convincing my nonwebmaster readers to install the toolbar, but I don’t think very many did although some already had it installed. I’ve dropped 10%+ in just a week and much more on the month stat (about 20%, it’s at). If we look at it like
“old ranking”*3 week+ultimate ranking*1 week=”current ranking after 1 week”*4, then maybe one could hope for 239*3+x=189*4 or x = 39. An alexa rank of 39000 would be amazing. Also try 239*11+x=217*12 => x<0. Clearly there's a law of diminishing returns but this also indicates that a more realistic ranking should be obtainable within 3 months and that even 1 month would be a definite improvement. Projections should be more realistic after 2 weeks.

@Early Retirement Extreme, yah, I’ve looked at it a little bit and I should be at -100,000 in about 3 months, so we’ll see lol. It’s hard to project where we’ll level out, but the one month rankings on the site are also helpful for where we’re headed. Maybe I’ll add that soon because it gives a clearer picture of where we could be at if we keep up the progress. A mini-goal among the larger goals.
We see that the 50,000 has less movement, but they’re definitely making some nice progress even with the tough competition!
