How to Check Competitors Traffic Instantly

Checking competitor website traffic is easier than you think with the Alexa Sparky add-on for the Firefox browser.

It's a great tool for competitor website traffic research. You can instantly see the web site visitor traffic ranking and trends for any competitor websites - and it's free!

Visit the Add-Ons section at http://www.Mozilla.com and search for "Alexa Sparky" to find the download page here.  Installation is very quick and easy for Firefox users.

This free Alexa Sparky browser plug-in offers you valuable free market research info on every web site you visit.  If you're like me, you'll soon find yourself looking at the status bar to check the  traffic results for every site you visit!

This video discusses how to use and evaluate Alexa website traffic rankings as competitive intelligence to help your e-business decisions.

More Free Competitor Traffic Resources for You

I also recommend using the web sites at Alexa.com, Compete.com, and Quantcast.com.  Each of these services offers more details than the Sparky plug-in - and they all work for Internet Explorer browsers, too!

Was this competitor traffic research tip video helpful to you?

If you use Firefox are you also using "add-ons" like this one?  Or are you using Internet Explorer to browse online?
