28-4 Google pagerank update in progress

[Free WordPress Themes]

During this same period, my site has risen from ~1,300,000 to 1,038,069 in Alexa. I like that stat Cool .

thats because you're visiting your own website

(sorry just pushed the wrong button and edited you post)

  don't be mean Olaf, though sorry to shatter another illusion but you were better off looking at PR then Alexa data which is well not very representative of traffic ultimately the only stat thats really important is visitors (unique) and page views everything else is just designed for ego's though seoMoz page strength test and Yahoo trust rank can both provide you with some useful information and an ego boost. A new favourite of mine is http://www.websitegrader.com/ which even tells you what literacy level is required for an "American" to read the site, I'm afraid unless you have 2 years college my blog will be completely mystery to you!

btw. I check the alexa rank from webmaster related websites all the time: a value lower than 50.000 could be information about the traffic from a website...

I posted my thoughts on PR already on my blog. I made sure that all trackbacks are pointed here.

Alexa and pagerank can be good data, but it can be false or scam too as both can be "cooked" by someone who has some basic knowledge.

I think that Google is trying to make pagerank important again as it seems that they now filter more and more links to their algorithm. That's why most of the webmasters report increase in their pagerank for this update.

I thought Alexa was based soley on traffic? I've had some good traffic lately to my domain.

Alexa records the traffic from the people that surf your site using their toolbar. In other words it is really inaccurate. You can use a statistics program to check your traffic, what do you need alexa?

right use google analytics...this way you know that your traffic is real

I use it...except it doesn't track in my SMF forum or the chat for example :S and Alexa tracks most places.

nice, I think you need 1000 a week to have sales

Its strange but we have a couple of high traffic sites a 1000+ day yet almost no sales from the site, yet another client site gets only 100/day and regularly converts 5-10% this is primarily because of the niche. But its an important lesson that having a few targeted users is far more beneficial then 1000s of non-targeted ones.

yes absolutely, there are very different indicators why a websites has sales or not. My website has 1000 uniques a day (targeted traffic) but no one bought the website templates yet

* WhiteEagle added LeetLink to my network two days ago. That might help my PR/Alexa Rank.

Anyone can tell me at what intervals it updates, once in 2 months or 3 months. Thanks
