Alexa rank !! why this?

[pak]

this is my site picture ... forum is abour 6-7 month old



This is another forum stats ( not mine )
site is about 2 and half year old



now i want to know in 2nd forum alexa is also showing daily results of ranks like yesterday , 7 day but in 1st forum stat ( my forum ) it is only showing 1 month and 3 months stats ,

is it because my site is not under 100 thousands rank or is this because my site is not too old enough for this or is this any other reason

well im new webmaster so dunno much abt these

Alexa's full of shit.

I think it's because you are not under 100k, not sure but that's what I think.

Also like 4tw said, Alexa is retarded use Google Analytics or at least AWStats

well its shit or not , but it tells ur the accurate rank of ur web in the world , or do u know any other website which tells us the rank of website

LOL at "the accurate of your web in the world"

the only traffic they count is people who are using their toolbar, so if 20 people visit your website and they do not have the alexa toolbar then alexa doesnt count those hits, if i visit your site now and i have the toolbar then my hit will count, thats how they work!

Yes Bxflow is right

[pak]

if bxflow is right then 2 words for it , alexa sucks

is their any other rank site ?

Their's isn't really any website that gives accurate statistics for a website. Alexa gets it's data from people who have the alexa toolbar added. As most webmasters, warez users, designers, coders etc have it added it usually means the sites they visit rank higher than they should compared to sites when the users wouldn't be as technology friendly. eg a gardening site visitors wouldn't generally have the alexa toolbar installed so they generally preform worse than they should compared to say KWWHunction as lots of members here have the alexa toolbar.

This is the reason why alexa isn't accurate along with the fact that's it's possible to fake the stats by using various tools and therefore "sucks balls".

Their are other sites who try to estimate traffic like Quantcast and Compete.com but these are also inaccurate for similar reasons to alexa.

i agree with the above post....there is not exact method to find out the ranking of your site but you can however check for backlinks on vairous sites and they matter as well
