Hey Alex

Congrats on passing the 500k Alexa landmark! The top 0.5% is an excellent place to be - and you are well in there!

My long term target is to be in the top 100k (ie 0.1%) which may be ambitious but you gotta set high standards right!? Last time I checked I was at 269k. It's really nice to see it slowly climbing up the ladder - reassures me that I'm doing everything right by SBI rules.

My link building program is still going strong and I'm currently looking for the most efficient social sites to post to. I do have a couple of questions for other webmasters regarding this:

1. Do you Twitter? And if so, how do you get people to follow you (other than putting a link on your homepage)?

2. Do you have a Facebook Group? And again, how do you get more people signed up? I have nearly 100 people on board, and assuming they have an average of 100 friends each who may see their sign up, I reckon my group should be growing faster than this. Any tips?

3. What are your most effective sharing sites? (eg Digg, Stumble, Delicious, etc) - and why!

Thanks!
