Hi Mike
Alexa rank basically works on how much traffic your website is receiving. In order to get a better score, you will need more traffic to your site.
One of the best ways to increase traffic is to reach out to communities that are relevant to your website. See if you can find blogs in your industry that have an engaged audience (comments, social shares etc.), see if there are any industry forums you could participate in, have a look on social networks for any groups about your industry, particularly Facebook, LinkedIn discussion groups and Google+ communities. Finding these places with an active audience offers the opportunity to increase traffic.
That can be achieved by integrating yourself into the community. That does not mean joining the group/forum, dropping your link and waiting for clicks - that's not integrating into the community. Integrating means becoming part of the community - help out fellow members, offer bits of advice, produce content or tools that would be of high value to people and so on. Helping the community will bring traffic as a result.
I will say this, however: Alexa is notoriously unreliable and as a general metric, I think it's fairly poor. I wouldn't concern myself with what Alexa has to say about my site, or my clients' for that matter.
When you're reaching out to the communities as I mentioned above, do so to build relationships, not traffic. By building relationships, offering things of worth to the community members and generally being helpful, traffic will follow as a result. Not only that, but that traffic becomes much more qualified and probably has a higher chance of converting.
Hope this helps.

Google ranking impact: Returning visitor vs New visitor
Hi all, If a website's traffic increase in "New visitors"; will this impact rankings? Do the website overall traffic affect rankings? How much this is related with ranking improvement for main keywords? Just because thousands of visits increased for website, will it count as a strong ranking improvement signal? Thanks

Not a mobile friendly website, will it hurt my rankings?
Unfortunately my website is not mobile friendly. As it is based on clickable links within an image there is no way to adapt it either. Now, I have heard Google is getting serious about mobile friendly design, how will this impact my ratings? My current analytics show 57% desktop, 24% mobile and 19% tablet. I really like the design of my site with the clickable images and would hate to have to change it because Google says so :-(. My website is http://tamarindobeachinfo.com

Webmaster Tools Crawl Stats Drop - Ranks Dropped too
Hello, So I have a situation I haven't seen that happened today. I checked in on my keyword rankings, and all seemed to drop off the rankings in one day. Even googling my domain name, I'm not the first result (when I always have been with multiple sublinks under). There were no unusual errors in the webmaster tools, no issues "Fetching as Google". The only thing I can find is in Crawl Stats, my "Kilobytes downloaded per day" and "Time spent downloading a page (in milliseconds)" dropped a lot in the last day or so (by about 90%). Has anyone had this happen? Any ideas for how to bounce back from this? Domain referenced is mediamegamall.com Thanks!

What determines rankings in a site: search?
When I perform a "site:" search on my domains (without specifying a keyword) the top ranked results seem to be a mixture of sensible top-level index pages plus some very random articles. Is there any significance to what Google ranks highly in a site: search? There is some really unrepresentative content returned on page 1, including articles that get virtually no traffic. Is this seriously what Google considers our best or most typical content?
