WTF? Google Alexa rank = #4?
 
Youtube is #2
and
Live is #3?!

What is this world coming to!

I guess it's the default start page thing when you install msn and such.

Fap 03-13-2008 10:35 AM

i guess so.. but i didnt think youtube was more popular than google

Drake 03-13-2008 10:39 AM

I thought the same. Who uses Live search engine?

BVF 03-13-2008 10:40 AM

Same here

im sure when you go online with vista it goes right to live..

live uses the same exact preferences page as google

google:
http://www.google.com/preferences?hl=en

live:
http://search.live.com/settings.aspx...Default.asp x

maybe a coincidence and im retarded

a lot of the live hits are most likely from the people who use hotmail.

How many times have you been told that Alexa is WRONG! I know this for a fact and if you are a real webmaster you should know this info by now.

SayWhut 03-13-2008 12:09 PM

I've noticed this before.

Live cunningly looks like Google.

Gotta love Billy McGates and his shitty innovations.

I take it they have scrapped MsDewey.com then?

Vick! 03-13-2008 12:17 PM

A lot of hotmail traffic is counted toward live.com .. whereas Google's 90%+ (i think) is there for search.

May be google can win alexa war (lol) by making youtube a subdomain, youtube.google.com :winkwink:

Drake 03-13-2008 01:22 PM

It's only recent too. I first noticed Live a couple weeks ago. At that time it was ranked #1 on Alexa. It always used to be Yahoo #1, Google #2. Live seems to have come from nowehere to almost the top spot.

Fap 03-13-2008 01:26 PM

Well microsoft can put it on all the vista computers..
