Alexa versus Adsense earnings versus traffic

[tonyolm]

Has anyone monitors if your alexa ranking ever coincided with earnings?

Well since a lot of my stuff is highly seasonal, that's kind of a no-brainer.

(Not that I pay any attention to Alexa, for the most part, but I assume it goes up when my season comes in)

I'm out of the top 100000 so don't really know the stats.

Alexa roughly reflects the amount of traffic to my sites. It reasonably accurately shows the general seasonal ups and downs.

As far as earnings go, Alexa has no way to estinmate that and doesn't try to do it, as far as I am aware anyway.

[tonyolm]

Alexa isn't a measuring tool for adsense. I was just wondering if anyone noticed if an alexa ranking seemed to coincide with earnings.

Alexa never has made any sense for my sites. I check periodically to see how things look there, but they don't seem to ever update.

Things might have changed over the years but I always considered Alexa to be total krap.

Google [coff, coff] Toolbar it isn't. The demographics of Alexa users do NOT necessarily represent a cross section of all users across the internet.

[Chrispcritters]

No, my eCPM is not exactly the same each day.

Alexa data only comes from the toolbar users, which is an extremely small percentage if internet users. So I wouldn't rely on their data for anything.
