Has anyone else noticed this? Alexa now has little ranking logos you can put on your web site... probably only attractive if you have a high ranked site, like Brett :) 567 is impressive... I think they updated rankings today too.

Too bad they decided to this as a javascript tag instead of an image tag
[alexa.com...]

here yah go Brett, I think it would fit right under that searchenginewatch award ;)

Yes, I'm sure that Brett would love to give away a bunch of data about WebmasterWorld to a company that will do who knows what with it.

Gee, where do I sign up...

Actually from what I can see, there is nothing to actually sign up for, unless you are greedy and want the extra amazon.com points.
If you look inside the script they run, you can nab the gif image fairly easily ;)

That's pretty nifty amznVibe. I did put a couple on my own start page. Probably will put one on the hp here if/when we hit the big alexa fortune 500 club.

actually I think this graph makes an even stronger statement about webmasterworld

[traffic.alexa.com...]

Now that's what I call success! If that trend continues, you'll be hovering around the top 250 by this October

Can anyone explain me why it's possible to add its amazon ID?

Amazon.com Associates

Enter Your Associate ID:
XXXXX
Alexa will update your certified traffic rank to include your Associate ID. The certified traffic rank can pass your ID along to Amazon.com and you may earn additional income. Not an Amazon.com Associate? Sign up today!

Alexa is a wholely owned Amazon company. If a click to alexa from the graph leads to Amazon sales, you get the affiliate fee.

Thanks Brett for your answer but the Amazon logo is not really visible. But "just in case", I've added the script ;)

This is pretty cool, although calling it a "Certified" traffic rank seems to imply a degree of precision that doesn't exist.

I'm seeing a ranking of 505 today. Looks like 500 is one update away :)

Just to be pedantic: Alexa has had "certification" javascripts available for websites for a long time now. They just stopped promoting them for a while after their switch to a Google-powered search engine. (In fact, it was a temporary outage of those scripts that led me to discover Alexa had gone Googley [webmasterworld.com] last year.)

There are some new features (and more variety in output formats) in these new scripts however. Among other things, the old scripts couldn't provide graphs are incorporate Amazon affiliate links.
