We were sending out a newsletter to a few hundred people and it had a typo in it. I was reassured that at least it wasn't as bad as the email BZ sent out! I had a look at the Alexa comparison for both sites. Maybe I'm missing something, but I couldn't see evidence that BZ were even close to Digg at any stage. <em>Meg's last blog post..<a href='http://blogpond.com.au/2008/02/06/monthly-update-for-february/' rel="nofollow">Monthly Update for February</a></em> Sorry Mark, my comment was a bit ambiguous.

Thanks! I'm not entirely clear on what you mean by being an example. Could you clarify please? As for the Alexa ranking info, overall it can be a good way to measure performance when comparing it to other like sites. I don't put much stock in the ranking myself, but I do acknowledge that advertisers look at it as a factor when considering where to advertise. So on that point, BZ must be doing pretty well on that. @Meg

Something that I don't think has been mentioned, is the reference to BZ being "month ahead in traffic for the same time of digg" on Alexa. No possible way can I see BZ being anything but a blip? Or maybe I'm not reading Alexa goodly... ;) <em>Meg's last blog post..<a href='http://blogpond.com.au/2008/02/06/monthly-update-for-february/' rel="nofollow">Monthly Update for February</a></em> Hi Mark
