    Thanks you have given that information about the Alexa Ranking.

    Alexa is not like google Page Rank, as you might have known, PR measure links while Alexa measures traffic, but Alexa is important too believe me ;)

    Alexa tries to measure traffic but only manages to measure traffic from users who ave the toolbar installed. It is important, but only for silly advertising networks who don't realize how easy it is to manipulate Alexa. ;)

    yeah I as thinking with this too...
    They only measure Alexa Ranking from the users who also has the Alexa Tootbar..
    So those people without the Alexa tool will not be counted as a record..

    I would try to improve my Alexa ranking in case I decided to sell my domain name, or if I wanted to find advertisers to place their ads on my site. They will probably look at my Alexa ranking first of all. So, higher ranking (doesn't matter what made it higher) helps.

    If you sell your site, and its Alexa is over 1,000,000 people won't believe it's popular. If you sell your site and its Alexa is below 100,000 it will get sold much easier. That's why we should thank the TS ;)

    I don't think alexa is so useful . I can show you many blogs those receive 100k impression per month and their alexa in above 100k but We can find many blogs which receives 20 k to 40k impression per month but alexa ranking are like 70k or 60k . So I don't think alexa is so important for webmasters .

    Alexa has always troubled me. Due to the mass competition in almost any subject, you really have to have some skills to get up there.

    True :D they're probably paid my the big wig advertising networks to install and surf their sites to gain a false Alexa ranking so they can con the advertisers into thinking that they have loads of traffic. Looks like black hat stats to me~:eek:
    my 0.02 worth!
