    Honestly, it is just a NUMBER. Nothing more. It is a tool people use to compare and benchmark their sites with each other.
    It will be useful if you plan on bragging to friends about your site, or selling or even getting your hands on some good sponsors/affiliates.
    Thats about it.

    Alexa rank wont affect your SERP and traffic. Its other way round. High SERP and traffic will give you high rank in Alexa. Its just a number and should not be given too much imp. The method to calculate the rank is not full proof.

    Alexa rank has nothing to do with SERP rankings. Alexa ranking denotes the traffic strength of a site.

    Alexa is not so much important, its simply connected with your traffic, if you get good traffic for your site, your Alexa rank will improve.

    Simple answer: It doesn't affect SERPs.

    It does however, affect how other webmasters, along with advertisers, view your website.
