Ask Adds Compete Stats To Previews
Ask.com has a useful Binoculars feature in its search results that shows a preview of websites as well as some information about them. The preview now adds a tab with statistics from Compete.com, showing a graph of average users over the last 12 months and site rank, with a link to see more detailed stats at Compete.
I think it’s clear that Compete was surpassed Alexa, carrying more believable and trustworthy stats and none of the mismanagement and ill will that has plagued Alexa the last few years. Adding Compete’s stats to search results was a smart move for Ask, and it underscores the gains Compete has been making lately.
