Weird alexa stats

    Is a rank of 3,00,000 good for starters. I just made a new site and barely announced about it in some threads on the internet and this is my rank right now whereas i have seen many established sites having 1,000,000

    alexa stats are counted by people who use THE ALEXA TOOLBAR..

    if the demographic that uses your site does not use the toolbar then your rank will suck..

    alexa is a waste of time...

    Really?
    Usually if you get 20 visitors/day ,you could get into 1,000,000 IMHO.

    Alexa stats are very confusing, i just got a 300,000 jump i was in 1,000,000 now im in 700,000

    And yes i guess 3 mill is a good rank for starters but usually all starter sites are in 1 mill areas imo.

    Whoa... Alexa rank of 300,000 (right?) is really really good for a site that just started out! Good work man!!!

    It's not 3 mil, it's 300K :p

    not sure why, but my rank is always rising. had 12x.000 2 months ago, 100.xxx last week and now i just broke the 100.000 and it says 97.xxx (toolbar) and 80,xxx (alexa.com traffic details).
    but the stats say traffic hasnt changed this much...
    however, a good alexa rank makes your website more valuable if you want to sell ads on it with adbrite or textlinkads.

    Alexa going through a bad patch at the moment, think theres problem with the sight in general some days you can get on it other days you can't.
