What is Alexa Rank?

Alexa rank is the measurement of traffic on your website. It is a service provided by Alexa.com and usually depends on your website visitors.
 
Alexa is the perfect companion to surfing the web. Access any site's rank, discover similar sites, and see how a site looked in the past.
 
Hey Avery,

It is a ranking system set by alexa.com that generally audits and makes public the frequency of visits on several Web sites.

Alexa rank is based on the total number of traffic recorded from users that have the Alexa toolbar installed over a period of three months.
 
Alexa ranks almost all of the websites around the globe. They rank in line with traffic/hits or amount of people visiting it or with it. Just like your Google and Myspace they are at the top 10 because the majority us use the item. It is also needed for a website to achieve rank so it may attract potential advertisers to achieve money. You can increase your ranking by simply either posting everyday whether it is a blog, or making improvements, advertise your internet site its (kinda expensive) or by exchanging backlinks with other site owners. btw you may register your internet site in a targeted visitors exchange website. Hope it will help.

Another useless thing that you shouldn't put your focus into.

I agree. Alexa ranking only measures traffic from visitors using their tool bar and since I don`t use their tool bar, if I visit your site, it will not show up in stats.

True, but it is a good estimate of how well a site is doing traffic-wise. It's obviously not as good as the real thing (legit traffic stats), but it's good to look at if you don't have access to those stats or want to compare your website with others.
 
Alexa rank is the measure of website's popularity compared with all others existing on internet after taking into account the number of visitors and number of pages views on each visit.
 
Whether Alexa rank is still considered as a rank for website quality? Just curious
 
alexa rank is a metrix by amazon which provides traffic data of a website but it mostly in accurate and based on data gathered by alexa toolbar.
 
Alexa Rank is the measurement of a website's comparison, popularity on internet. It collects traffic data from various users who have installed the Alexa toolbar or other resources.
 
For everybody that has said it "only extracts data from those with the Alexa toolbar," here's this from the horse's mouth:
Not true! Alexa’s measurement panel is based on a very large and diverse set of browser extensions and plug-ins. The Alexa Toolbar is just one of many browser extensions that include Alexa data. And, for sites that have installed the Alexa Certify code, Alexa directly measures traffic from all visitors to the website whether or not they have a browser extension installed.
 
Alexa Rank mean, your website value in Google or any other search engine! it collect your website traffic and show it for you!
 
Alexa Rank is the traffic rank of a website, compared to all other sites on the web. This is provided by Alexa.com based on sample browsing behavior of people with the Alexa toolbar installed in their browser, combined with search engine ranking and search volume inputs.
