That is because Quantcast doesn&#8217;t rely on a silly toolbar for its ratings but instead analyzes data from advertisers, publishers, ISPs and advertising networks, which I think is the most sensible solution.  Besides giving your site a rank, it studies your audience, gives their age, ethnicity, income and education.  Where else can you find out that your <a href=\"http:\/\/www.quantcast.com\/alleba.com\">site attracts a younger, primarily male, Asian, college educated crowd<\/a>?<\/p>\n<p>Here are some analyses of popular Philippine sites:<br \/>\n<!--more--><br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.yugatech.com\/blog\/\">Yugatech<\/a>: Popular among a primarily male, more educated, more youthful crowd.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.inquirer.net\/\">Inquirer.net<\/a>: Attracts a largely male, mostly Asian, primarily older, highly educated, more affluent audience.<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.pinoyexchange.com\/\">Pinoyexchange<\/a>: Appeals to a younger, Asian, almost exclusively female crowd. (Whoa, is that true?)<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/www.friendster.com\/\">Friendster<\/a>: Attracts a more educated, mostly Asian, somewhat male, youthful audience.

Quantcast is still fairly new in the game and has a lot to work on.  I would love to see more features such as the ability to view monthly reports as well as day-to-day, week-to-week, month-to-month, site-to-site comparisons.  If they offer this in a pay package, I would gladly shell out for that.<\/p>\n<p>On the web: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.quantcast.com\/\">Quantcast.com<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I&#8217;ve been using Quantcast since last year and all I can say is it has the potential to give Alexa a run for its money.
