Arrow Please help improve ehMac.ca's Alexa rating

I was doing some more research on Alexa rankings. They are pretty useless... but I found out that a lot of search engines and advertising programs do put a fair bit of weight on them.

Basically, they are mostly affected by how many people browse a site using the Alexa Toolbar . Alas, the official toolbar only works in IE for Windows.

However, there is a company who makes a toolbar, that has integrated Alexa rankings in it, that works in FireFox, that works on a Mac.

Here's the toolbar from "A9"

I installed it, and it seems to be working. Currentlyl, ehMac.ca's Alexa ranking is only 239,498. (See screen shot below)

Can I get as many of my ehMac peeps as possible download this toolbar for FireFox for Mac or PC, (Or on IE for Windows if you are using Windows) and set ehMac.ca to your home page, and check it out... every day! Pretty please!

Let's see if we can improve our ranking!

Also, if you could also add the google toolbar, that will also help ehMac.ca's Google Page ranking. Would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks... you guys are swell.

From what I read, Alexa rankings get updated about every 2 weeks.

The more members who can help the merrier!

Do you have to have an Alexa account? Or, can I just install the toolbar?

I installed the toolbar in Firefox and now it is prompting me to log in.

This should be sticked for a couple days so people notice it. It'd be great to get more traffic from search engines.
