Alexa page rank
By Ashokrajan Balakrishnan of Metis Technologies Private Limited
Traffic Rank:
The traffic rank in alexa is based on past three months of average traffic data from the millions of alexa users and also data drawn from the other, different traffic data sources, and is a combinational measurement of page views and users. In the begining, alexa calculates the reach and total number of page views for all sites on the world wide web on a daily basis. The most important alexa traffic rank is mainly based on a value derived from some quantities set by alexa. The three months variation is checked by comparing the site's current rank with its rank in three months ago in the ranking index.
sites :
Traffic is calculated for sites, which are practically defined at the domain level. For example, the Web hosts such as www.msn.com, carpoint.msn.com and slate.msn.com all the three are taken as the part of the same site, since they all reside on the same domain named msn.com.
Reach:
The reach calculates the number of visitors. Reach is practically expressed as the total number of all the internet users who visit a given site in the search engine. Suppose a site like yahoo.com has a reach of 28%, it means that all the Internet users present across the world calculated by Alexa, 28% of them visit yahoo.com. One week and the three month calculated from daily reach and three months average reach. The 3 months change is calculated from the comparison chart used by alexa.
Page Views:
The Page views measures the number of pages visited by the website visitors regularly. many page views of the same page visited by the same user on the same day are counted only once in a day. The page views per user numbers are the mean (average) numbers of unique pages viewed per user per day by the visitors to the particular website. The past three-month change is calculated by comparing a site's currently how many pages viewed by the visitor with those pages viewed from three months before.
Traffic Trend Graphs Calculation:
The Trend graph shows all the website owners for their site's daily traffic rank, how long the visitor stayed in the website. The daily traffic rank shows the traffic to the web site.
Daily traffic rankings will sometimes benefit sites with high traffic, while the three-month traffic ranking benefits sites with consistency in traffic. Since we feel that consistent traffic is a better indication of a site's value so that alexa page ranking has chosen to use the three-month traffic rank to represent the site's overall publicity. We use the daily traffic rank in the Trend graphs because it allows web site owners to see short-term ups and downs in traffic very clearly.
Even it is possible for the site's three-month traffic rank to be higher than any daily ranking pictured in the Trend graph. In a given day there may be many sites that temporarily shoot up in the rankings. But if a site has consistent traffic performance, it may end up with the best ranking.
