Where can I find a traffic comparison

    Does anyone know how I can find a traffic comparison tool or site?

    I am looking for a way to show potential clients how much traffic my site has compared to others.

    Unless you are in the web business an Alexa ranking is pretty useless and leaves clients cold.

    Any ideas?

    Thanks JessieJames27.

    I am looking for something like compete.com but not just US focused as my site is global.

    compete adjusts to only take into account US traffic which is not what I am looking for. Is there something similar but global?

    Google analytics seems to crash the site for some reason and so we are not using it.

    Alexa only seems to provide good data if the sites you are comparing are top 100k

    Ravont, thanks. Not quite what I am looking for though.

    I am looking for a product that will display a traffic comparison in a graph format, just like Alexa or compete but for a number of global sites which site outside the top 100k (alexa).

    Alexa only compares for those under 100k in its traffic ranking

    compete only looks at US traffic

    Neither are any good to me.
