This is just a little opinion of mine on why the Alexa search and traffic analying engine is bad and useless.

Alexa.com is the site (i wont link them :)) And they can tell you a ranking they give out that go from 0 to whatever amount of sites are in their database. The lower the number the more traffic it gets.

Why don't I like it then?

Because they only count traffic from people that has the alexa tool bar. I don't use the alexa toolbar so I am not seen as anyone visiting your site which is stupid in my opinion.

The traffic for the forum is increasing and the use of alexa toolbar is decreasing, so of course, rank of GF is going down lol. Well its bouncing up and down.

Any thoughts for alexa? Anybody here worship alexa?
