I would normally say "Alexa doesn't matter so don't worry about it" but it turns out a lot of advertisers and domain name buyers do consider it when determining the value of a site so there are definitely some benefits to having a decent Alexa ranking.
Anyways, to answer your question, in order to improve your Alexa ranking (without blatantly cheating), you basically need to increase the number of visitors to your website that have the Alexa toolbar installed. Here are some suggestions -
1. Most anti-spyware programs nowadays flag the Alexa toolbar as malware and remove it from the computer, so this means most Alexa toolbar users are not as computer savvy and don't even know how they got the toolbar installed in the first place, let alone how to remove it. Take this into consideration when creating content/targeting keywords specifically for this kind of audience (ie, likely the older generation).
2. Do keyword research to see what kind of searches are being made for "Alexa" related keywords such as "Alexa toolbar uninstall" or "remove Alexa toolbar." This is a dead giveaway that these users have the toolbar installed and are looking to remove it. You can get them to your site by ranking organically for those phrases or if you want these visitors quickly, start up an AdWords campaign and bid on "Alexa toolbar removal" related keywords. Sit back and watch your Alexa ranking take off.
3. My final suggestion is my least favorite since it's essentially peddling spyware to your user base but it's still effective. Offer your users the option to download and install the Alexa toolbar from your website in exchange for some kind of reward. Again, I wouldn't suggest going this route since you risk the chance that your users will abandon your site forever but nonetheless it's still an option.

The alexa rank measures the visits to a website, so to improve it you need more visits. You can do it either doing SEO or different kinds of internet marketing.
Hope that this helps,

Drop in keyword rankings with a multi-region website
Hi everyone, I know that variations if this question have been asked on this forum and have been answered by Google also. Google's response seems to be clear that "Websites that provide content for different regions and in different languages sometimes create content that is the same or similar but available on different URLs. This is generally not a problem as long as the content is for different users in different countries." This was our approach when launching a new .co.nz website recently to coincide with us opening a new office in Auckland. Our original site is still our .com.au site. We went with a new domain name over a sub directory or sub domain for the reasons in the same Google article. After launching the NZ site in February and steadily growing some rankings, we've noticed in the last week or so a drastic drop in our keyword rankings (and traffic) for no apparent reason. There are no apparent issues in Search Console or with the Moz Site Crawl, so I'm wondering what's going on? I know rankings can fluctuate widely, especially when you're not on page 1 (which we're not) but the sudden and drastic drop did concern me. Currently, our AUS site's content is basically being replicated on the NZ site (e.g. blog posts, about us, company history, etc.). I just wanted to bounce it off you all to see whether you think it could be the "duplicate content" on the NZ site, or could it be something else? I'd really appreciate your input! Cheers, Nathan

How can I Improve Loading Speed? - Parker Dubrule Lawyers
Parker Dubrule Lawyers' website at parkerdubrulelawyers.com seemed to be loading quite slow this morning (>5 Seconds). I added a lazyload plugin, minified JS and CSS, and ensured that the images were optimized---all of this seemed to help and brough it down to under 2 seconds. We are looking at more reliable hosting options for our clients---ones that are inherently faster possibly without these plugins being added to the mix. Does anyone have insight on a safe, secure, and fast hosting/server option to enhance the experience from the get go? All of the websites that we build are in Worpress. Your help is much appreciated! Thanks!

Mobile site not ranking
Hello, I have a m.site.com version of my original site. It is about 1/10 the size, and no matter what I do-I can't get the site to rank. I've added more pages and specified canonical etc etc. Should I add as many pages as my larger site has? Are there specific places I should be submitting this version beyond the typical? I am at a loss, so any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks! L

Ranking Internationally
Whats the best URL strategy to rank for one term in different countries? We currently rank well in Australia, but are tackling many countries over the next few months. The page I am ranking is http://www.spendbitcoins.com/buy for the term 'buy bitcoins' or 'buy bitcoins in Australia' (replace Australia with each specific country, i.e. New Zealand, Japan, etc.) These are the strategies I have come up with, is one of these good or is there a different better way? Use country specific TLDs, pulling the content from the same site w/ translations Use country specific TLDs and create separate sites and create completely original content Use country specific TLDs, forwarding to the primary domain use a subdomain from the same site modify the page link to be something like spendbitcoins.com/buy/new-zealand Don't worry about any of this and just get links from sites with the proper TLD

Can I redirect a URL that has a # in it? How?
Hi there - My web developer is saying that I can't do a URL redirect with a "#" in it. Currently, the URL is actually an anchored link within a page (which the URL indicates with a #). I want to change the content to a new URL, but our website links internally to the old URL, so we would need to do a URL redirect (assume 301). Can you tell me if this is possible and how? Thanks!

Dismal content rankings
Hi, I realize this is a very broad question, but I am going to ask it anyways in the hopes that someone might have some insight. I have created a great deal of unique content for the site http://www.healthchoices.ca. You can select a video category from the top dropdown, then click on a video beside the provider box to see. The articles I've written are accessible by the View Article tab under each video. I have worked hard to make the articles informative and they are all unique with quotes from expert physicians. Even for strange health conditions that don't have a lot of competition - I don't see us appearing. Our search results are quite dismal for the amount of content we have. I guess I'm checking to see if anyone is able to point me in the right direction at all? If anything jumps out... Thanks, Erin
