How to Submit a Website to Alexa

Paolo C. from Manila DM'd TechPinas this question via Twitter this morning:
"TP, how do I add my website to Alexa for crawling? Thanks!"

Hi Paolo! Thanks for the inquiry!

But first, for TP readers who might not be familiar with it,
What is Alexa?


via Wikipedia:

[Alexa or] Alexa Internet, Inc. is a California, U.S.-based subsidiary company of Amazon.com that is known for its toolbar and website. Once installed, the toolbar collects data on browsing behavior which is transmitted to the website where it is stored and analyzed and is the basis for the company's web traffic reporting.

Now to answer your question:

Steps in submitting a website to Alexa for crawling -

1. Click on THIS link.
2. Scroll down right to the very bottom.
3. There you will see a box where you could place your website's URL. Fill that in.
4. Click on Crawl My Site button.

That's it. :) Pretty easy, right?
