    Acutally 2 questions

    1)I have a blogger blog. Put the alexa rank img/button up on my blog and well I have no "stats" yet a rank of 11 lol. My question how long does it take for alexa to give me some real stats vs blogger.com's stats? I know other myname.blogspot.com users have subdomain specific rankings who dont have a domain name. Least i dont think they have a domain other than the subdomain ya get for free

    2)my race team site been around for 3 years online. our own Domain name and stat wise Alexa has zip on us still, other than links. and Site info (city, country ett that i filled in) I put an alexa pic up on the site recently that shows the site info. DO i need to download the toolbar and actually surf to site? picture for the site never comes up either.

    It will take time, it will take traffic... Alexa is frequently updating their ranks lately... as for example... the moment I am making my post... DP has dropped big time in ranking from 304 to 938! So dont worry, if it doesnt show up... it will sooner of later.

    That is pretty weird. An old site with an old domain should be awarded some rank... sometimes, when you change hosting, it gets stuck totally. Happened to me once... so no big deal.. it will go away (should) once you tell it to refresh the thumb...

    Thanks for the info guys. The old domain finally updated. Just took a few weeks of patience after resubmitting the url to the crawler. Not sure why i had to do that. Although my domain did "expire" for a few days so i am guessing that may have played a part..
