Lower the better mate

For example, my Alexa on AndrewKnight.com.au is: 270,998
And the Alexa on Digital Point is: 2,121

Digital Point has a much much better Alexa.

thanks guys

In a word: Pointless.

Alexa ranks sites that are visited by people who have installed the Alexa toolbar. I don't have any way of knowing how many people have installed the toolbar but the Alexa ranking (in my own experience) is nothing more than "cute".

Their claim is that it is more accurate above 100,000.

At the end of the day, the thing that matters is that you get TARGETED visitors and that your site converts those visitors efficiently and profitably.

I prefer using Google Analytics to track that sort of information.

 

you want to have a low number. it will rank the site, according to their traffic.

 

sites with webmaster related content tends to rank better in alexa coz most of the webmasters use alexa toolbar.

dont count on alexa rankings as its not the ideal tool

 

Right the lower the better. However, up to now, I have not really seen a correlation between Alexa ranking and how successful a website should be.

Help FreeKii get below 100,000. We're so close, just visit us if you can to help us reach this milestone.

Use the link below. (Hope that tells you how useful Alexa ranking is)...

 

If you can get to around 200,000 your in a good zone from an AD point of view.
