Small update
I've found a pretty effective method for indexing backlinks thanks to this forum. The "google video sitemap method" Before only about 5 of 15 backlinks, I've created over the last 2 months got indexed. Now a total of about 13 of them are indexed I guess now it's a waiting game to see if it affects my traffic in a positive way over the next few months.
My Alexa rank crashed HARD no clue why.. my traffic hasn't changed, but my Alexa rank has done nothing but plummet this last month is it something I should worry about?
