Although Alexa is not the most reliable source on earth, looking at the graph make you think that something happened around July and that they have not recovered yet.
What do you think ?

Alexa changed measurement stats:

How odd that the change impacts istock only and not shutterstock and fotolia...

I had excellent and consistent growth during the time that chart says traffic tanked. I'm only one person but I would guess most people's sales would have tanked if that chart was accurate.

How odd that "username" registered today just to post this very old news.

And how odd that "people" resort to personal attacks rather than address the issue at hand ... or is Alexa actually correct so there is nothing for 'people" to say?

Sure there was a ton of speculation posted months ago when this was first posted. I don't think it's necessary to rehash the whole conversation again when you could actually use the forum search function to read the previous discussion and then offer some new insights into the situation if you have any.  If the real purpose of posting it is to gain knowledge then I would think that a lengthy discussion already posted would be valuable in some way.

And that is all that needed to be said .... i.e. please see previous discussion on this subject .... no need to attack people, especially if they are new to this forum ....

Point taken. At the time this was the only post that had been made and by all appearances was someone signing up just to stir up some drama. Apologies if that was not the case.
