Bloggers like to see numbers.  The higher some numbers are, the better things are.  Things like monetization, pagerank or subscribers is a good example of a number you want high.  Sometimes the lower the number the better.  Alexa Rank is just like that and you can see it in real time at www.alexa.com.

At alexa.com you can compare your website traffic to that of other websites and see where you stand in your niche.  It’s a good motivator to keep the traffic coming your way.  Alexa measures your reach (per million), Alexa Rank and page views (per million). 

When you first go to the site you see a graph right on the front page.  When you type in your websites, the graph will show your numbers.  You even have an  option to post that graph on your website, where it will update automatically.  Since fellow bloggers and readers like numbers and stats, it would be a pretty cool feature to stuff in your footer space.

What is your alexa rank and what does it tell you?
