Alexa has always been irrelevant so no big loss.

Alexa has always been an ok indicator about the popularity of any website
I used it daily for years

As for alternative, I only found similarweb with their chrome addon which is useful for a quick check on any website

They retired it before and kept it running so just not available to see.

I'll miss Alexa.. liked looking at their stats to see how sites are growing

While it was not perfect, I loved it for ballpark.

I remember the first time I was a guest at SXSW feeling like some of the speakers should have an Alexa readout over their heads to give a sense how seriously to take their thoughts on the web.

I like to check Ahref's stats. Give some ideas of the number of backlinks and a domain rank :)

About time . . .

Still works for me, it was not great but it was super fast because you didn't even have to open the website to have a glance of the traffic of any site you only needed to add the site at the end alexa.com/siteinfo/site.com and boom, everything ends

I would imagine there is a much bigger product with much more revenue which the domain owner has prioritized the use for.

Also the Alexa toolbar ranking was not even relevant 15 years ago, let alone in 2022 :sleep

Shoplifter 05-01-2022 08:22 PM

I wonder if they sold the domain to Amazon for the big bucks.

Yes, but not in the way you were thinking.

Alexa Internet, Inc. Alexa was founded as an independent company in 1996 and acquired by Amazon in 1999 for $250 million in stock.
