    You know what...Alexa is not a good tool at all, in fact, it is an offensive tool to webmasters. :mad:

    Alexa is not going to sell to many tees... :D
    BTW, you missed to blur out your URL right at FF's title bar... ;)

    I know...I saw after I closed PhotoShop. All well. Way to announce it though.
    *slap*

    And what you're supposed to look at is the percentage. :p

    Well..0.000005% of the internet thinks your site rocks :p

    But seriously, 5mil in alexa isn't anything :p
    Having said that, even with a quite decent ranking I'm at 0.0066%.. which isn't much to be proud of :/

    I don't know...

    I don't think most people have a clue what it means. maybe get the Tee that says your site ranks at 4,000,000 and tell people that ask "the higher the better" and that'll place you higher then google :D

    Either way though, when you site gets into the top 10K you'll look back on this with a fair bit of humor and possibly even wished you got the shirt. I mean, imagine execs at Google showing up to work in their shirts they got 10 years ago reading 0.00000000005%

    I've noted an strange behaviour with copy & paste on Alexa 3 month percentage value for my site:
    On alexa page: 0.00365%
    After Copy&Paste to a text editor: 0.04833760365% :confused:

    The alexa toolbar is crappy. It’s Spyware without much added benefit. And you can't remove the amazon link from it.

    Hmm..
    To be quite honest, even to run around with googles shirt, or yahoos (30% or so) would be emberessing.
    I mean I could just imagine someone mentioning it on the street.. "So what, 70% say your site sucks?"

    Lol, now I think everybody knows his URL's there twice

    Man if you're trying to keep the URL secret you should have done a better job =P

    But tbh. . I did the same earlier ;)
