Alexa Rankings

Are Alexa's traffic rankings accurate. I'm hearing conflicting stories on this?

[C.Rebecca]

Alexa’s ranking contains hits of all the visitors who have installed Alexa toolbar on their browser.
A hit on a web page will affect Alexa ranking only if you have Alexa toolbar installed on your browser.

Thus, it is best not to consider Alexa rank as a monitoring tool to analyze the traffic. Instead, more focus on ranking in SERP’s.

Alexa is a very authoritative tool utilized to rank website traffic. Realize how your website traffic stacks-up alongside your entire challenger! That is one of the main accurate liberally available tools to discover how healthy your website ranks-up aligned with millions of other websites on the Web.

Remember: "The lower number of Alexa ranking means more greatly visitors visited the site.".

Alexa ranking determines, how well is your site doing, as far as traffic is concerned.

Alexa ranking is not 100% accurate. Since this is the only website so we are taking their stats into consideration.

Alexa is a good indicator and  also seobook.

Hi..

The best way to improve an Alexa ranking is to install the toolbar and just visit your own site a few times a day and it would be great if you will find a  friend to do this for you. and then watch the big improvement in the site’s Alexa ranking. One thing you should keepin mind that, don't visit your competitors website.

Thanks

AlexaRank is calculated using the Alexa Toolbar. Alexa takes the browsing data from the millions of people using the Toolbar and calculates the traffic ranking of each site.

Alexa rankings are not accurate because you are able to go to companies like Alexage and make your alexa ranking appear lower than it should be.  You can get your Alexa ranking at less 1000, 10,000, etc depending how much you want to pay, therefore alexa is only a guideline to determine the amount of visitors to your site and that is all.  It is not 100 percent accurate.
