Alexa rankings?

[11jsd]

Hi could you give me an idea how much traffic a site will be recieving if its Alexa ranking is about 130,000? Is there any other way to determine a sites traffic that you do not own?

Thanks

Don't use Alexa rankings. They are easy to manipulate and aren't very accurate even at the best of times.

Its impossible to know traffic for sites you dont own (unless there is a counter on that site) but you can try looking at link popularity, which might help you a little.

The better the Alexa Ranking the more reliable (any ranking under 10 000 is considered to be fairly reliable and cannot be manipulated). See http://www.top-sites-list.com/faq.php for an explanation and for the actual Alexa Top Sites Lists.

Thanks everyone for the links. I thought there would be away of getting an acurate estimate.
