Can traffice to other sites be determined?

    I use Google Analytics to tell me how many hits I am getting a month. Is there any tool I can use to determine how many hits my competition is getting on his site ?

    you may get some information about traffic of other sites with

    1. Site info from Alexa: http://www.alexa.com/siteinfo
    2. google trends site : http://trends.google.com/websites?

    With both tools, you may compare several sites.

    Both tools are not exact, and may show wrong figures and trends. However, they are the only (a bit serious) available tools .

    I think there is other sites (probably wrong on this) - check out compete dot com - i think that's the name of it.

    You could use Compete Pro, Quantcast, etc. to see how much traffic any website gets.

    I checked out quantcast, they want you to put a tag on every page of your site like google analytics does - forget it, then they want to sell you similar sites.

    This site is going to give you nothing until you start paying them, then it will be unreliable data

    Whats the other one

    Do you have to pay for it?

    I saw that they wanted you to put tags on every page of your site and then 'buy' similar sites.

    What's up with that?
