Thanks! You made my day!

As for Alexa, I am pretty sure I know what the problem is. The site that ranks higher is visited by marketers who are more likely to have the Alexa toolbar on their machine, or other analysis software that includes an Alexa widget. So it over-calculates visitors because of the higher frequency of “Alexatized” visitors. They need to find a better way of gathering their analytics.

Hi Dave,

I have been receiving lots of cool marketing stuff from you lately, and I must admit I love them. You are one of those IM whom I didn’t opt out from their lists, the other Kim Roach.

With regards to your post on Alexa as not reliable as others thought it is, here’s my thought.

Your site with a lower traffic that ranks higher in Alexa probably has a lower competitor in that niche compared to the other, thus it ranks higher….

I don’t know much about internet marketing much so analysis because I am still learning, but that is how I see it…

What do you think?

Aw, this was a really quality post. In theory I’d like to write like this also – taking time and real effort to make a good article… but what can I say… I procrastinate alot and never seem to get anything done… Regards
