Welcome to the New Site Info Page

We are proud to announce the release of our newly redesigned Site Info page. As part of our mission to provide customers insightful and actionable website metrics, this page redesign allows you to more easily navigate and discover important information about all websites. We also listened to our customers and incorporated some of your feedback into this refresh.

We encourage you to explore the new page and find your favorite features. Below are three new improvements we are most excited about:
Enhanced Usability: The updated page features a cleaner, easy-to-read layout so you can quickly find the information you are looking for, including key website metrics and analytics.
Answers to Critical Business Questions: It?s now easier to get answers to the questions business owners ask most, including: How popular is this site? How engaged are its visitors? What are this site?s historical traffic trends?

Actionable Metrics: Identify key data and trends even faster. Cleaner graphs and charts make finding and analyzing website metrics easier.
What else has changed?

Alexa remains committed to providing access to free website analytics but as part of our continuing effort to improve the Pro customer experience, certain previously free metrics will no longer be available including: detailed keyword data (top five are still available for free), advanced demographics (basic demographics are still available for free) and reviews. Instead, we are currently offering customers a one-month free trial of our Alexa Pro Basic Plan. This plan is a great introduction to our suite of Pro offerings and provides accurate and comprehensive website traffic metrics, certified by Alexa, uptime monitoring, an enhanced site listing and the ability to easily compare sites.

We hope you enjoy the Site Info page redesign and find the improvements beneficial. This is just the first step in a series of improved site features we plan to launch in the upcoming months. Stay tuned to this blog for future announcements or create an account to receive email updates.

BTW in my opinion the new layout sucks ... but thats me.

What idiots! Don't they get that the new model is giving everything away for free and monetizing from ads for a couple quarters per 1,000 visitors? Compete.com removed a lot of free information too not so long ago. The great business leaders of our industry ought to buy them out and show them how it's done.

Less info for free. They will make some $$ from webmasters (or wannabe ones) who need the data they hidden.

I haven't used Alexa since 2002

I actually noticed that today.. :upsidedow

the part i use is still there :) they took away backlink data :(

Alexa is useless at all and there are much better tools to check backlinks.
