Alexa is good for an estimate of popularity, but I think it only has a degree of accuracy when you're in the very top percentage of websites. It's something no smart marketer should rely on, except perhaps for campaigns being run on the top websites.

The reason is that people judge some blogs based on alexa ( not talking about you ). Moreover, my main reason was the first reason i pointed, blog thumbnail. We take so much pain in changing theme , colors etc finally to realize someone who boast as web information company , is not even able to update it. Finally lots of people ask me , how to change alexa ranking, and thats where i felt, is it really important ?? @arpit, the answer is in your question !!

Unless you are selling text-link-ads. I only use it to check the popularity of a blog. I don’t see why People bother with Alexa ? just keep working on your content and connect to people.
