    PageRank is a numeric value that represents how important a page is on the web. Google figures that when one page links to another page, it is effectively casting a vote for the other page. The more votes that are cast for a page, the more important the page must be.

    Alexa Rank use numbers from 1 to infinity. Alexa assess traffic rank is based solely on number of visit to the blog. It means more traffic will make your blog pagerank according to Alexa Rank is lower.

      Alexa rank isn't 1- infinity and it isn't based on traffic to your site...it's based on users who visit your site who have the alexa toolbar installed.

        Not entirely.

        From the horses mouth:

        Alexa computes traffic rankings by analyzing the Web usage of millions of Alexa Toolbar users and data obtained from other, diverse traffic data sources. The information is sorted, sifted, anonymized, counted, and computed, until, finally, we get the traffic rankings shown in the Alexa service. The process is relatively complex, but if you have a need to know, please read on.

          And yet they still rely mostly on their crappy toolbar which is inaccurate at best. Alexa is a completely useless metric.

    Google page rank and Alexa rank are entirely different. Google page rank is the value given for a page by Google considering many factors like backlinks, quality content, traffic, internal link flow, authority and so on.

    Alexa rank is based on traffic. Alexa gets the value from its toolbar and calculates Alexa ranking.
