    When looking at the page/traffic rank results for sites, I find myself having a hard time understanding them.

    A couple of questions.


    What the heck does reach mean?

    When looking at the page views tab - if the graph is at 2 million page views, does that mean there has been (not litterally, i know the graph isnt perfectly accurate) 2 million pages views?

    Does it account for all traffic?

    How accurate is the information?

    Is a 40,000 page rank good?


    Thanks for your help guys.

    From the pages of Alexa :D

    So yes 40000 is good, but that rank is based on the fact that your site is popular with people who have Alexa Toolbar installed. So what does it mean? Based on my own experiments, there is usually a high number of webmasters and not the general public who have Alexa toolbar. In the end it's a bit of an ego thing and useful lfor some ad buyers, but really it's the top 500 that are most accurate, but that's just my opinion....
