I think Alexa is better compared to Google PR. With Alexa Ranking, we can take rough estimates about the popularity and traffic of a website. And PR is not any way related to the popularity or traffic of a website. A site with Good RP of 4-5 may not be getting even 5-10 visitors in day and on the other hand a website with zero PR may be getting thousands of visitors per day.
"PageRank is a representation of the amount of links pointing to a website, nothing else."...What? Where have you been? Pagerank is a lot more then just inlinks. I have a site that is a pr 5 with barely any links. It's content and structure baby!
I can't saya which one is better because I use google page rank and alexa rank for paid review and sell links.
I knew people would make silly comments about toolbars. alexa ( which measures traffic ) and google rank ( which measures how google measures importance ) Phynder sums it up best "Which is better - a hammer or a saw?" which is better pr9 and no traffic or pro and alexa rank 100? I know what i would choose. Traffic is king not importance
In my opinion, none is good. I don't think PR should be given much importance these days, its basically just some green thingy on the toolbar. And as for alexa, honestly, it never shows me accurate results. You should better start focusing more on the SERPs instead.
Neither matter at all. Alexa is biased towards webmasters and Google are obfuscating their page ranks at the moment so the PR displayed for your site may not be the true PR. All that matters are your own weblogs. If you're getting more traffic each month then you're doing something right and it doesn't matter at all what Alexa rank or page rank you have. More traffic = more money. It's that simple.
2 things came to my mind 1. You are comparing apples with oranges. 2. You are trying to find the best among the worst.
Right now their are so many top blogs which were penalized and have low pr , so everyone will go for good alexa .
