How to know how much traffic a website is getting
Do you want s to know how much traffic each site are getting?
WE can YES!
Now we talk about a bunch of traffic estimation services (like Alexa, Compete, Quantcast, etc.) from where you can obtain statistics (page views + unique visitors) of almost any website for free but is the data accurate? here are the results:
1. Alexa - Alexa won’t tell you the actual page views of a site but an estimate of the percentage of Internet users that may have visited your site during a given period. Now assuming that the number of Internet users did not changed drastically in the past 6 months or so, a site’s reach as determined by Alexa can be proportional to the unique visitors.
Verdict: ALEXA data is not accurate.
