StandardShift.com Alexa Statistics

Post by Leedeth »

Finally got around to installing the Alexa Toolbar, and now I have all these nice statistics within a click.

Traffic Details: http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traff ... ift.com%2F

Links: http://www.alexa.com/search?q=lsite:www ... dshift.com

What I find interesting is where links to our site are posted. It looks like most of them are very-low traffic sites, some of them look to be nothing more than spam sites. But we are being mentioned, and it counts nevertheless.

Our rank is really low though. :P Another reason for a revamp, get around to that Wiki, etc etc. Cmon guys!

Seriously, your "Alexa" rank means absolutely nothing... Especially with niche sites like this. Its system is just plain flawed, you can't extrapolate real traffic data when you're really only getting an extremely small sample, from a certain group of people (those who will install the toolbar and allow Alexa to get stats from them).

Google Search

Now THAT means something 8)

edit: A wiki would be Bad. Ass. :D

Interestingly enough for a small site, we're in the top 10 or so when searching for stickshifting or a variation of words in Google. Nice, eh? :)

Exactly, google pagerank is what really determines how much traffic your site gets :D. From almost all of the search terms I tried, anything with "standard" and to do with cars we were in the top 3... even "standard transmission" which doesn't even really have anything to do with driving ;).

Google was of course how I found StandardShift :)
