- inactive, on 08/09/2008, -0/+11Interesting read. I agree that having 2 sets of data would be useful for reference...but that's mostly because I'm a stats junkie and like pouring over stuff like this.
Folks should be able to see how social media is having an effect for their sites, though. - inactive, on 08/09/2008, -0/+8wth, I hope this isn't true
- Michaelabehsera, on 08/09/2008, -0/+6Thats not fair
- MarkLaymon, on 08/09/2008, -0/+4Conspiracy theory for you. Are they playing up to drive the prices down on other social sites?
- brainnovate, on 08/10/2008, -0/+4this is not surprising. its less of a penalty and more an attempt at normalizing the data.
- inactive, on 08/10/2008, -0/+4I've heard the same thing, hate to think that it's true, but i think that it is.
- chadell, on 08/10/2008, -0/+3My opinion is that a lot of Digg users do not use Alexa toolbar and the arrival of Digg toolbar may offer an alternative source of stats. may be Digg should publish stats as well and penalise Alexa.
- DariusMonsef, on 08/10/2008, -0/+3Alexa is ***** [period]
- guyro, on 08/09/2008, -0/+3As crappy as it seems, Alexa is still a commonly-used point of reference for advertisers - and anyone else interested in site traffic.
- kemp34, on 08/10/2008, -0/+3If they did, that is stupid. Digg traffic is legit.
- dalehay, on 08/10/2008, -0/+2Alexa's stats ain't correct either, they only rely on stats coming from people with the Alexa Toolbar.
- dominex, on 08/10/2008, -0/+2I think, this is temporarily ;)
- MarkLaymon, on 08/09/2008, -0/+2I agree that two sets of data should be the next MUST have feature
