If you own a website or work in the field of advertising, you would be familiar with the website Alexa.com. This should not be confused with Alexa the Amazon device, even though both are subsidiaries. Recently, a banner appeared on Alexa.com that directed you to the following message:
We will be retiring Alexa.com on May 1, 2022
Twenty-five years ago, we founded Alexa Internet. After two decades of helping you find, reach, and convert your digital audience, we’ve made the difficult decision to retire Alexa.com on May 1, 2022. Thank you for making us your go-to resource for content research, competitive analysis, keyword research, and so much more.
We have been proud to serve you as customers.
Thank you sincerely,
The Alexa.com Team
Serving content creators and advertisers
Alexa.com basically keeps track of analytics of over 30 million websites around the world. It provides information on website traffic and rankings. The rankings could be filtered giving you the opportunity to view the top websites in a given country.
Alexa.com is used by both content creators and advertisers. Content creators view the performance of their site and advertisers determine if they should advertise on it.
The free version of Alexa.com gives you comprehensive details and analytics. It is a useful tool for both web developers and advertisers the world over.
The paid version gives more tips on improving your site and can be incorporated into your site using APIs. As a result of this announcement, Alexa.com would not be accepting any new paid users and current paid users would have functionality until late 2022.
As you may have noticed in the message above, no reason was given for the decision to retire the website. So, where would you get information that Alexa.com provides for free on content research, competitive analysis, keyword research and website rankings?
