Alexa issue

Closed this issue · 5 comments

Alexa is not giving any data anymore. I think they have closed there server for external scripts like php files. How can we get around this issue? They also don't have a good api to find also country data etc.

I'm using your script for www.websitepepper.com and the alexa ranking is essential for the score. Can you please help me with this issue?

Thanks!

1.) Alexa has no API at all. 2.) They didn't blocked script-wise access, but changed site layout a bit. Take a look at the dev branch for a working version https://github.com/eyecatchup/SEOstats/tree/dev .The new version is not completely finished yet, but a fix for this issue is allready implemented in the dev branch code.

Since a week the alexa-country-rank will not returned. I get for more than 150 domains an alexa-rank of 0 with the last repo from here (downloaded/installed in begin of september).

@Stefan39 Are you talking about "latest repo" from master, or from dev branch? Dev branch should work: https://github.com/eyecatchup/SEOstats/tree/dev#seostats-alexa-methods

Nope, i used the last from dev-branch and this method returned by all domains 0
