Sparky: Official Alexa Toolbar For Firefox
24 Jul
Finally someone at Alexa found out that there’s a little browser called firefox.
Few days ago, years after the release of Firefox 1.0, an official Alexa toolbar for firefox has been released.
It’s called Sparky, and shows a small alexa stats graph in the bottom right corner of your browser.
It can be used to monitor alexa stats for the sites you’re visiting. Apart from that, it seems to be almost useless.
The lack of firefox support was one of the reasons why I never trusted alexa. I’m happy to know that their data can now be a little more accurate, if only people had a reason to add this toolbar to firefox.

[…] an official firefox toolbar has been developed. The question is if it will be used or not. I guess it will […]
I’m not into Alexa at all, none of their services are satisfying my needs. Sure, they have their “cool” gadgets, but none are satisfactory. They lack on communication and understanding when it comes to ‘knowing their ways’. It’s more based on ‘guessing’. Talking about SEO and Site promotion.
Thanks for the info. Looking forward to more.
Seems they had to make an update now, did not have the time to check for details, but according to some statistics, the alexa toolbar is awfully low used. They are just not looking for an user’s eyes. To satisfy an user, you need to be one.
Thanks, yet I use SeoQuake util!
useful tool, thanks Mapelli
I use Search Status for check Alexa, Whois, Backlinks…
Alexa has also changed the rank algorithms, finally listening to their users, since this has been a massive user-request. So now, yes, they’re going UP. I’ve posted a brief article about it.
Cheers
Alexa ranking and data gathering improved big time, and not a moment to soon if you ask me.
The sparky curve is sexual,

Installed this when your first wrote about it - but now it’s not updating - anyone else having this problem?
Given the fact that there is absolutely no benefit for any real life user from Alexa then we can all agree that the results given by the toolbar are not accurate.
I use a Firefox addon which shows PR and Alexa rank side by side on the bottom right
I have the same problem - to be fair Alexa rank is a bit of a waste of time these days.
This is very cool toolbar.
Thanks for toolbar, but Alexa is really strange web ranker, isn’t? His rank is just nonsense, maybe numbers 4.8.15.16.23.42 have more sence
