Originally posted by sraloff I manage many sites - some of which get thousands of hits a week. None, however, have an Alexa rating below 452,414
But then 2 weeks ago I made a few scripts available on my side2.com site and suddenly it has a 295,512.
How can this be?
I think that the majority of people who use the Alexa bar are webmasters and surf this site.
Exactly... it's not a real good ranking until you look at sites under 10,000... and even then it's skewed. If your site targets webmasters it will be higher, if you cater to Mac or Linux users, it will be lower, etc.
