    I dont think any changes would occur during the holidays. If they did my sites will all go up like 1 million. *lol*
    Maby if you look at this you would understand.

    cheers guy! that's a bit disappointing, but it serves me right for spending too much time looking out for alexa updates!

    In fact, alexa is not important. We should concern the website PR.

    It hasn't been updating for quite some time now. Almost a week since last update, I guess.

    ha! it's not often I actually laugh over here in DP (or any of the other forums, just to clarify!)

    You don't actually have problems do you?

    Someone chuck me a shovel or a spade or something here....please.

    Thanks.

    Alexa are pretty retarded in that way that they sometimes delay updates.

    They did it a few months ago and all across the year in 2007.

    If you install seoquake and do a search on google for your site, it will tell you your up to date 3 month average even if the toolbar one is showing a different number. That is the best way to check it daily.

    I too have noticed that there does not seem to have been a toolbar update for Alexa Rank for about 3 weeks now. I know alexa ranking is not important or even very accurate for that matter, but I do often look at it, even just to get a rough idea of where my sites are.
