8a the most spread global climbing website

Based on official statistics from Alexa.com 8a.nu is the only global climbing website. All the other big climbing websites have a very high concentration, 63 - 90 %, of their traffic from just their origin large country. For 8a.nu, it is the opposite, only some 5 % of the traffic come from Sweden and the traffic is spread out evenly around all the climbing countries in the world with USA, Australia and Germany at the top, counting for 15 % each. Another interesting figure is that only 5 % of the traffic come from a search engine and which can be compared to 9 - 22 % for the others. This means that 8a has more dedicated visitors compared to all other big climbing websites. On the other hand, this shows that we here have a great potential to reach more climbers if our links could get higher up on searches on Google.com. Anybody who have some advises?
