I saw this in alexa home page. Now google is gone to 4th place in alexa rank. Is traffic of google is becoming lower that yahoo,youtube and live Please somebody can give Advanced details.
Really, it doesn't matter. First, Alexa is one of the worst ways to give any value to a website, easily less than 2% of web users use it, and that might be even to high an estimate. Second, Alexa is nothing but spyware, it collects data of your web surfing and acts like its made just for ranking. Don't be fooled, Alexa is connected to one of the top marketing analysis companies around.
Alexa is crap This doesn't stop G or any site making $$$ Same with PR Stop strugling or watching things that are worthless
Are there any sites than can give an honest opinion of a website's traffic in comparison to a competitor? I know from Google Analytics what traffic my sites receive, but what I would like to know is how that compares to my competitor's traffic.
Alexa is based on sampling of a certain number of users. I do not see Alexa publishing any technical numbers for eg how accurate is its ranking, what is the variance of the traffic hits etc. So it would be kinda of difficult to judge just on Alexa's information.
Yahoo gets way more traffic then Google worldwide. Makes sense, since Alexa is all about visitors and pageviews.
Yahoo have alot more products than google, like yahoo movies, yahoo weathers, yahoo greetings, yahoo blogs, simply yahoo have more content pages for visitors to come to yahoo. However, google have the highest share in search engine market only. Make sense
Alexa = IE6 Smart people use google and Fifefox/Opera/Mozilla Suite 1.7 So the percentage of IE6 visitors at google might be lower and so is Alexa rank.
Google is losing traffic compared to yahoo and msn. ref:: pcworld.com/businesscenter/article/142408/google_share_of_us_ads_down.html
