Alexa (an Amazon company) is the leading provider of free, global web metrics. Search Alexa to discover the most successful sites on the web by keyword, category, or country. Use our analytics for competitive analysis, benchmarking, market research, or business development. Use Alexa's Pro tools to optimize your company's presence on the web.
Check the List of Top Sites on this page
Alexa ranking data is not 100% accurate..
- If you have Alexa Toolbar installed (Or a Custom Alexa Toolbar Like the one we have here) your page-views are recorded in the alexa system
- If the website you are visiting has an Alexa widget .. your page-views are also recorded
In fact, Alexa toolbar is not present in every single user's browser, thus, ranking is not 100% accurate.
Yet every website owner is in a competition to receive a higher Alexa rank (less number = better rank)
Facebook, Google, and YouTube are the first three ranks in the Alexa system, because everyone in the world uses them.
Note that Alexa has some Paid services "Pro Tools" like site audits which can be found here
That's all about Alexa :)
