Alexa is a scam - All of you are saying it isn't but your just denying it yourselves...... Your providing the facts and evidence for it being a scam, but then you end your reply with or start it with - Its not a scam when really, your just trying to think its not a scam when it really indeed is..... Considering that you can make substantial amounts of payments to alexa, in order to gain a higher ranking. You can also use tools/scripts and premium software provided by Alexa with cost obviously, which allows you to bypass the normal web ranking. Alexa is also a well known site for providing a " false rank " and this is being used to scam new site owners. Yes, its a scam. Try and deny it but the facts and evidence are all in google waiting for you to read
But it's a great way to motivate yourself...don't you think so? It's not accurate but it can tell you some info about the popularity of your website!
It's not scam, alexa.com is powerd by amazon.com so you wouldn't say it is a scam! yeah may be it rankings are not that much trustworthy coz i am having 11,000 visitor per day in my site but alexa ranking is getting down day by day... so i quit to use alexa rankings.
i dont think so Alexa is an scam because lots of web master use this Alexa also depending on Alexa its bad idea wgen you have google
I'm not sure whether it's scum on not. But, one thing I know for sure, it doesn't work for Russian language websites and I don't trust to Alexa.
How can it be a scam? It doesn't cost you any money and it's not necessary for you to use. Where is the scam?
Not a scam but not legit either.... Alexa is a joke when it comes to relevancy.... they do no direct measurement and they rely on toolbar stats which captures such a small portion of web traffic that anything they provide is so far from the actual traffic a site receives its not funny but the reason they are still around is because they make money by pretending to be relevent and offering a analysis of your site for $200 although if you talk to anyone who has paid for one of those alexa reports you will know that basically all they are doing is charging you for keyword analysis, competitor analysis and then showing you how to improve your alexa position and SERPS all of which can be gathered from free tools. In addition their site is plagued with advertisements.... if you want relevent data then rely on direct measurement like Quantcast or comScore.
