A Quick Tour of the Alexa Redesign
Why did you change the site?
When we took a good look at the Alexa feature roadmap we realized that we needed to change. We needed to be more flexible and we needed to embrace some new technologies. So we decided to start from scratch, built a new version of the site with new technology, and along the way we took a fresh look at just about everything.
How did you decide on this design?
We are fortunate to have access to a very large group of consultants with years of experience… you!
Really. We listened to the feedback of our customers and found some common themes. Some features were hard to find. Some were not well integrated. And some others were just confusing. So we made some changes, and then we made some more until we arrived at the version you see here today.
What has changed?
