How To Know About Your Competitor's Website

      Do you want to know about your competitor's website to understand where you stand among them?But it may be pretty difficult to contact that person to know any information,right?Don't worry!There are quite a few free websites which can tell a lot about a particular website just by typing the URL.So lets get started.


1.Google Trends

          This is a  free tool from Google which is an extremely popular service.What it shows is the popularity graph.It shows over time how much a website is popular.It may not show the exact details.But it does allow you to compare two websites and look at their popularities.
            Take a look at the image below where I compare  Yahoo!and Google

Note:This only works for websites with relatively high traffic.

2.Alexa

        Alexa doesn't tell you the exact number of visitors but it does tell you an approximate percentage of visitors worldwide who visit that paricular site.It can be particularly useful as it is pretty accurate.
            But there is one problem that they rank .com and .in parts as two different websites.If you want to prevent your blog from redirecting to country-specific domains then check out my post

3.Stat My Web

          This website is also very popular for comparing your competitor's website.It provides with complete information about a particular site.It shows Alexa rank,backlinks,website worth,no of visitors and lots more.Definitely worth a try.

4. QuantCast

             QuantCast is another service similar to Statmyweb.It too gives an estimate of hits and unique visitors along with visitor demographics.You should give it a try.

5.Compete

compete-website            Compete is a free service pretty similar to Quantcast.But why it has been ranked at #5 is that it only tells you about the total US traffic.Compete uses data from ISPs, their own toolbar and other data source to calculate the unique visitors and hits (or pageviews) of a site.
              


                      These are the best websites that you can use to compare your competitor's website.Hope you like the post.Please comment below.
