I currently use Alexa for both personal and business use. I absolutely love Alexa for so many reasons, but the main one would have to be it’s versatility!
- Music--I listen to so much more music because of Alexa; I'm not exaggerating when I say I use it all day every day.
- Timers--This may seem small, but Alexa makes setting and using timers ridiculously easy; it’s definitely one of my favorite features.
- Reminders--Another one of my favorite features is how easy it is to set reminders! It has helped me stay on top of the things I need to get done!
- Alexa has some trouble hearing your voice sometimes, so that can be a bit frustrating!
- Alexa is connected to the cloud (and is supposed to know pretty much everything Google does) yet she still has trouble answering simple questions sometimes.

There are two different things with the name of Alexa. Here we are gonna talk about Alexa, the ranking website, not the Amazon Alexa, the Voice Assistant. Having this cleared, Alexa ranking helps our organization to track our deliverables and keep an eye on each application we release in the store. We have 80+ skills and applications launched, however, to keep track of the traffic and its small data, it makes a difference and helps with analytics. We just have 3-4 peers at the table weekly to discuss the Alexa ranking and its dynamics.
- Real time analytics
- Page ranking
- Quality check-up
- Data delivery
- Dashboard
- Time zone mismatch with UTC

Best in Industry standard for website ranking. Whatever website you go to, whatever website traffic you generate, one must visit Alexa ranking for all the websites they visit. One must not get confused with Amazon Alexa which is a virtual assistant. We use Alexa mostly for tags and marketing tactics for web analytics. All of us try to make our global Alexa rank so good that we must get hit by customers in the genre. SEO tools and Competitive Analysis tools are helpful.
- Website Ranking.
- SEO tools with Tags manager and suggester.
- Site Comparisons.
- Finding websites within the genre.
- Hidden costs may end up losing lot of money, Pricing model is not good
- API calls fail sometimes
- Website suggestions are irrelevant sometimes

We use the Alexa ranking scheme throughout the organization. Most importantly when delivering the website we have to make sure it matches the standards. Additionally, it helps to guess and analyze the page rank of the website which is live and on production. Web analytics and SEO is a major use case of Alexa in our org. We fetch data and other web scraping tasks using top Alexa rank pages.
- SEO, web traffic analytics, trends, website popularity, visitor engagement.
- Page ranking and webpage standards.
- Ad campaigns.
- Keyword tags suggestions.

We are in the preparation phase to launch different ad campaigns and expand our business to the next level. Learning about Alexa is one of the steps to prepare for our goals. We want to create a meditation mobile app serving the company's mission with Alexa. However, right now, our main focus is to increase traffic to our website and build a strong reputation before officially using Alexa. But it is on the list.
- It is easy to navigate through Amazon Developer
- Even for a non coder, it is very thorough and easy to go through setting up steps
- Testing for Alexa is also awesome since you can use simulated websites for it instead of buying the actual device
- Although it is easy to build an Alexa skill, in the end there is still some Java script coding involved. More instruction on that could help users finish building a skill. I had to spend a day looking up what things are for the final step. It was a bit time consuming

Our organization used Alexa to try and identify website traffic trends so we could better understand who was coming to our website, where they were going, how long they were staying and what content resonated most. Our goal was to use the data to be able to provide better content for our users.
- Web traffic analysis
- Inbound link analysis
- Keyword traffic - helped improve SEO
- Metrics aren't as accurate as Google Analytics
- Would like a more detailed drill down of site visitor geography
- Site keyword functionality not as robust as SimilarWeb

Alexa is used by all employees in our company to track metrics on various media websites. It helps us build comprehensive real-time and monthly reports for our clients using accurate analytics/data that support our efforts in media relations and other areas of PR. With the numbers Alexa provides we can better track progress, challenges, opportunities, and more.
- It sources website analytics for most websites we're interested in tracking.
- Each website's dashboard is easy to understand and pull numbers from.
- We can get very nitty gritty with the numbers we're pulling or keep it simple by just pulling basic website visitor stats.
- Not all websites are included, and there isn't always a rhyme or reason for who is or isn't in Alexa.
- It would be great to have more subset URLs tracked vs. only the main website URL. This could really help companies track more direct correlation between numbers and work being done.
