    Hey,

    Have you ever checked the Alexa rank of Alexa.com? Today I have checked it and found "Alexa.com has a traffic rank of: No Data".

    It is not strange but I was expecting at least some figure.

    "no data" is not exact. alexa.com is "not ranked". If you want to rank others, rank you not. (this excludes the SE page rank)

    This really makes no sense, there should be some data also for Alexa.com and it should be made public.

    Alexa.com will be NO1 rank if it ranks itself. The alexa ranks for websites are determined by calculating how many members of alexa.com [toolbar, etc.] visits each sites. All of them visit alexa.com for sure... that way alexa.com will be ranked very high, so it dosenot ranks itself. :)

    Alexa can't rank itself because that will mar its credibility.

    Alexa can't rank itself because that will mar its credibility. I definitely agree! ;)

    Yes, it seems that they don't rank themselves. But I think there should not be any issue if they rank themselves. Google also ranks themselves.

    Interesting find, I never noticed this before :). Ony alexa.com is excluded, all the rest Amazon sites I tried: amazon.com, a9.com, imdb.com have alexa rank.
