Alexa is doing something strange over the last two months where all Web 2.0 style sites are taking a dive. Check out this graph of Mahalo, Engadet and digg. Then compare those three on Compete and they are all up. http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details/mahalo.com?site0=mahalo.com&site1=digg.com&site2=engadget.com&y=t&z=3&h=300&w=470&c=1&u%5B%5D=mahalo.com&u%5B%5D=digg.com&u%5B%5D=engadget.com&x=2008-09-25T18%3A39%3A22.000Z&check=www.alexa.com&signature=KubnH8%2B6Mr3s5qWA6LKX5KoZ9O0%3D&range=6m&size=Medium http://siteanalytics.compete.com/mahalo.com+digg.com+engadget.com/?metric=uv Anyway, we had a huge year in terms of growth (a lot of search traffic), and next year we will have a couple of new features that should really grow engagement. It's going to take five years to build Mahalo and we're funded for those five years already. Look for amazing things this year! all the best, j Actually, we had a record month in August with 4.6m uniques according to Google Analytics.
