Alexa Rankings....
Do you think it is good or worthless in measuring a blog? I personally it is useless since it simply is not accurate at all.....

In our hearts we know it is useless.

But if you see you got a really small number you feel good. Even though it's probably yourself (with the alexa bar) who keeps visiting your site :p

Yes it useless, but you might use it as an advantage of your site when you sell it :)

In that case Even google PR is useless to. Both Of these are Helpful if you want Manual ads on your site then sites with Higher google and Alexa Rank will be Preferred in place of lowerones.

I don't use the Alexa toolbar, but I do visit the Alexa site. I like the site because you can find some pretty good information there. I like how they list the top ranked sites for your search query. Also, you can write a review on any of the sites at Alexa and when you choose to do that you will be directed to the Amazon.com site for writing your evaluation. I personally rank Alexa's rank high. I find it useful even without any toolbars in my browser.

I don't think it is useless. It is an assest if your website is in the top ranking say in top 10000 especially if you resell your website. All the top sites in within 5000 ranking. You also see that yahoo, msn and google are more or less consitent within top 3 ranks.

Alexa is okay but you should not rely on it too much, it does not count AOL users and some other Internet users
