alexa is a scam?

Alexa is like those pages that tell you how much your domain is worth....its just for entertainment.

 

Major of companies still believes on alexa ranking. they judge their-self with alexa rank. Yeah i agree alexa toolbar downloads on different system from same organization affect alexa rank.

 

Alexa not a scam..i use it all the time.
But the result given maybe slightly different with Google analytic
So it good to use two to compare the website traffic and detail

 

listen this scrap 1st time . nothing true . you can increase ranking by self visit to millions number! Sound good . Please tell me too if you can use such soft .

 

Alexa ranking can be trusted , it was no a scam .

 

I seldom use it, anyhow.

 

I don't think so, perhaps Alexa results is not much reliable, but I don't believe its a scam.

 

Alexa is not scam, it does not give us any disadvantages.

Alexa ranking is not that accurate however it shows how your site's traffic is. The "reach" options is almost similar to GOogle analytics stats, when your traffic increased, alexa will show increasing too.

Most people think alexa ranks is not accurate, but it is still important especially for your site's advertisers. They will look to your Alexa ranks before advertising, IMO.

 

You can't really call a company that is 100% free a scam, what are they scamming out of you? Maybe a couple minutes of your time?

 

alexa is not a scam. However, there are ways now to manipulate alexa ranking. There are tools that can manipulate a website's alexa rank, so that makes alexa less reliable.

 

lol its not a scam , saying it is not accurate would be more appropriate.

 

Alexa is not a scam but their ranking are not accurate.
I have some webistes. Some low traffic's alexa is far greater than high traffic.
Not so many people install their toolbar.

 

yeah, alexa rank is become one of the parameter to measure how good a website is..
but, no doubt.. with some tricks, some people have a good rank with a bad traffic actually..
CMIIW...

 

Alexa is not scam!
Instead it is not very accurate.

But you can trust the data alexa have for top sites specially sites with ranking less than 100000
Alexa rank can be con trolled by peoples by using proxy and alexa toolbar as you told , but it is not possible to alter data of top sites with millions of visits per day.

 

Alexa is a great thing if you don't use software to increase your rank! I use it because it motivates me when I see my Alexa rank increase...and if you get in top 5000 without using black-hat techniques, you will have money! So, I think you should start using it and increasing your rank

 

alexa is not scam if this is scam website then google never update pr of this website ... Google knows better than you guys ..... i hope u all understand

 

Definitely Alexa not a scam somebody Hacks this alexa rank with some proxies hits software, alexa is giving a accurate ranking to a website...

 

I would just say a waste of time if your focusing on your Alexa ranking, better to focus on other things.

 

Now that Google PR is dead,, It was too easy to manipulate ( for a small amount of cash you could buy links on high PR site and increase your PR)

If Alexia do some work on this indicator, beef it up, find some way to stop webmasters cheating with click scripts. It can become a very useful site traffic indicator, maybe better then PR ever was..

The Alexia ranking system is nearly there, it needs one of their top boffins to grab it by the horns, make it that bit better…. And it will become the ranking tool of choice for all us webmasters..

Alexia… Are you listening ?

 

so rankings can be manipulated in alexa?? and alexa cant detect and they give good ranking to site ??
very interesting...
