In May this year the vision for Ignite your ministry was founded. I bought the domain, installed the wordpress software I recommend everyone to use and wrote my first post.

I have always used the alexa toolbar to check traffic rankings on websites, and I checked mine in May. I was a little shocked to realize that my site ad 8 million other sites in front of me for popularity. It wasn’t so much that I wasn’t ranked highly because I didn’t expect to be. It was the daunting fact that there is so much competition.

I started to do some of the basics of web 2.0 promotion and behold in just over 3 months I have now got a ranking with Alexa of 789,593 as I write this. How did I jump up so quickly, well there are a number of reasons for this but mainly its web 2.0 promotion to get targeted traffic to my site. There are many companies that can guarantee you so many hits a day but the problem is they are not targeted hits. Alexa monitor how long a person stays on your site and how many pages they click through. The main reason I jumped up so quickly is down to the content I wrote. You have to put yourself in the seat of the reader. They want value and if you give it, they will not only view many pages but will engage with you and build community.
