Alexa went berserk
Posted: Thu Apr 17, 2008 4:00 amIt's about time somebody show Middle Finger to Alexa
After all those year Alexa finally publicly announced that Traffic Details is a hoax, a practical jock Alexa played to fool Internet Community and to amuse themselves while having some fun by watching millions of idiots playing with worthless numbers they called Ranking.
In blog post made by Geoffrey Mack he said and I quote:
Below are a few common questions we anticipate from the Alexa community, along with our answers.
My site's ranking has changed. Was it wrong before?
What ranking? We never had any Ranking just bunch of random numbers that we throw at you making you to believe that we were kept some count or database based on information collected by our Spy Ware Toolbar. Get real people. We need you to use our TB and that was the only way to fool you to install it. God, you so freaking dumb
Why are the long range graphs gone? I can only get 9 months of historical data.
What can I say, we screwed it up big way but I promise you within next few weeks or months, we will add more worthless numbers for you to play around. But first we are going to look for the most incompetent SysAdmins we can find to fix our problems. So be patient.
Will you change the rankings again?
Of course. We are constantly working to ensure that we provide to you the most useless data we can and at least 5 days behind the Yesterday schedule. We will continue to fuck up our algorithms but don't foresee any additional big changes because we don’t want you to use us to sell your sites spaces to advertisers and to make any money
I liked the old rankings better. Are they still available somewhere?
Why would you want something as useless as our old piece of crap data? Now we developed our new system, we expect you to join us and to have a good laugh at yourselves on the house.
Do you want to know what I think about this?
Who cares, you can think whatever you want. We would prefer you and your Internet Community bodies stop coming to our site and find something better to do than look at meaningless numbers and try to make them better. What a waste of time.
