		<description>Alexa traffic rank is calculated based on the alexa toolbar. There are millions of users using the alexa toolbar all over the world. Every websites alexa ranking is based on the analysis of the website by the alexa toolbar for a period of three months. The maximum number of alexa toolbar users your website receive, you website rank high in alexa. It is the combination of both the visitors and the page views by all the alexa toolbar users who visit your site. Rank is provided based on the measure of visitors and page views by users who have installed alexa toolbar in their browser. So if your website has millions of visitors and none of them have installed alexa toolbar the your alexa ranking will be too low compared to those sites you make 1000 visitors who have installed this toolbar.</description>

		<description>Sure, after all it&#039;s free will :) &lt;br&gt;But with certain tools, Alexa Rank can be brought down drastically within few days. However, Google Page Rank is much more effective here.&lt;br&gt;At the end of the day, it drills down to the PageViews and sometimes PR3 can get more traffic than PR4, after all it&#039;s the content that acts as a magnet. :)</description>

		<description>I had a similar impression. I never bothered about it. And sometimes Even Google PageRank doesn&#039;t matter in one of the cases when PageRank is ZERO -- For a popular blog.&lt;br&gt;&lt;br&gt;Quick question: How can it be Zero?</description>
