Title: This week's Alexa website rankings for Amiga/MorphOS
Post by: MarkTime on May 09, 2003, 08:18:15 PM

Here are this weeks rankings, make of them what you will...originally this was about the relative popularity of MorphOS and Amiga websites, but Amiga websites continue to dominate.

of course, I visit many other amiga and morphos
sites but they don't make the alexa.com rankings.
This week, I ranked by 1 week order, rather than 3 month average.
Lower number is better.
*edit* (to make numbers clearer)
1.Amiga.org    weekly   avg. 91,363 --3-month avg: 154,980

* Continues to ROCK ON.

ann.lu        weekly avg.: 145,422 -- 3-month avg: 592,853

* climbing dramatically in alexa's ratings, they were being counted inexplicably low, when I first started looking at alexa.

amigaworld.net   weekly avg: 212,232 --  3-month avg: 293,758

*this little web-site that could, continues to make slow progress

amiga.com   weekly avg: 389,698 --3-month avg: 185,076

* as the site drops in overall popularity, the percentage visiting os.amiga.com represents more of the traffic, perhaps saving the site from even more decline.  Of course, being down a lot, doesn't help them.


not enough to make the rankings yet:  morphos-news.de, amiga-news.de,
amigaworld.org...will keep an eye if they start moving upwards.

ehrm, am i reading this wrong or did Amiga.org go from a 154.980 place to a 91.363 place in 3 months or is the 91.363  an increased/decreased hit count?  :-?

sorry, the original post didn't make a whole lot of sense.....LOL

ok I edited it...it has two numbers now...

1 week average
3 month average

both numbers are current, just showing the relative rankings for the sites over a 1 week period or a 3 month period.  Obviously if you are getting popular, it will take longer to really show in the 3 month figure.

but....1 week is such a short time frame, that some big spike could make you look more popular than might be fair.

Do you have to run the Alexa toolbar?  Is that how they track you?

directNIC.com, the company I work for is #671

Hmm, what happened around the 24th/25th of last month?  The AmigaOne suddenly takes off and the Pegasos trails downwards.  Maybe it is people receiving their A1 XEs.

@Marktime

Wow, I didn't know Alexa had a toolbar.  Thanks, I just installed it.
