Alexa's data come from a large sample of several million Alexa Toolbar users; however, this is not large enough to accurately determine
rankings of sites with fewer than roughly 1,000 total monthly visitors.
Generally speaking, traffic rankings of over 100,000 should be regarded as not reliable because
amount of data that Alexa has available is not statistically significant.
Who said
emperor is wearing no clothes?
With
questionable current accuracy of two of
hallowed benchmarks of search popularity, where does that leave us? It leaves us exactly where we should have been in
first place, not obsessing over Google Page Rank or Alexa Traffic Rank, but instead focusing on
most important thing of all...and that is, what is your position in
listings when a person searches for your key words.
For both search engines and real estate, it's all about location, location, location!
