What is the Alexa ranking?

This is a classification system established by Alexa (a subsidiary of Amazon) that basically audits and publishes the frequency of visits on various websites. The algorithm by which Alexa’s traffic ranking is calculated is simple. It is based on the amount of registered traffic from users who have the Alexa toolbar installed for a period of three months.

This traffic is based on parameters such as page scope and views. Scope refers to the number of Alexa users who visit a particular site in a day. The page view, as its name shows, is the number of times that Alexa users see a particular page (URL). Alexa makes it clear, however, that if a particular user visits the same URL several times on the same day, all those visits will be counted as one.

The first step of the classification process is to calculate the scope and number of page views of all the web sites on a daily basis. The Alexa ranking is obtained by performing the geometric mean of reach and page views, averaged over a predefined period of time (three months).

 

 

Casio is known for its high-tech horological gadgetry and the long-running, hyper-durable G-Shock line. However, what you might not realize is that, like many Swiss watch manufactures that focus solely on mechanical watchmaking, the accessible Japanese brand also has ties to the realm of motorsports. The latest watch released by Casio is the result of a partnership with the Scuderia Toro Rosso Formula 1 team, which Casio has had a professional relationship with since 2016. Dubbed the Edifice EQS800, the watch is directly inspired by the design and materials of Formula 1 vehicles. The dial is constructed entirely from carbon fiber and uses an enhanced solar charging panel located underneath the inset dials to maintain a power reserve of five months at full charge. The watch is even supposed to charge in low or fluorescent light meaning that if you’re like me and avoiding going outside during the bitter winter months, your watch will continue to run without issue. The Edifice EQS800 is also water resistant up to 100 meters and protected with a scratch resistant mineral crystal. Like many Casio wristwatches, the extra abilities are plentiful; the watch has a stopwatch, a date display, and a battery level indicator.

The new Edifice model comes in three different versions; EQS800CDB-1AV with a stainless steel band and black IP bezel; EQS800CBD-1BV with a stainless steel band and blue IP bezel; or EQS800CPB-1AV with a black resin band and black IP bezel and case.

Casio is releasing a new watch from the high-end Manaslu prestige line of Pro Trek outdoor watches which will include the PRX-8000T-7AJF (orange trim) and PRX-8000T-7BJF(green trim) models. The PRX-8000T is designed for maximum functionality and readability in high-altitude environments. The top of the line Manaslu series gets it name from the Manaslu mountain, the eighth highest mountain in the world that was first climbed and summited by a Japanese expedition in 1956. The PRX-8000T is the new flagship model, making it the top of the line Pro Trek watch. Casio America released the PRX8000T-7A with a list price of $1,500. Update (Feb 2016): Casio Japan also added the PRX-8000YT-1JF to the PRX-8000 lineup, featuring a black band and a diamond-like carbon (DLC) coating.

The PRX-8000T was designed with the help of professional mountain climber Hirotaka Takeuchi, the first Japanese climber to climb the world’s 14 highest peaks, and is designed for climbing summits like the Manaslu mountain which is 8,000 meters above sea level. The watch features a large analog display with large white index marks and carbon fiber hands. The index marks have a double luminescence coating for good readability in low light conditions. The watch also has an auto dual LED backlight. The back case, band, and other metal components are made of titanium to keep the watch light and feature a titanium carbide coating. Along with Tough Solar charging and Multi-Band 6 radio timekeeping, the PRX-8000T has the battery-efficient Triple Sensor Version 3 which includes sensors for compass bearing, altitude/barometric pressure, and temperature, all vital information for mountain climbers. The watch also has an atmospheric pressure tendency alarm which will notify the wearer of fluctuations in atmospheric pressure and potential weather changes. The bezel, buttons, and crown are treated with a diamond-like carbon (DLC) for extra protection against the elements and the watch face has a scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.

Along with the top of the line G-Shock models, the Pro Trek PRX-8000T is made at the prestigious Yamagato Casio factory in Japan like its predecessor the PRX-7000. The PRX-8000T is the most expensive Pro Trek model with a list price of 160,000 yen and will be released on October 31, 2015 in Japan. It will also have an international release as the PRX-8000T-7A and PRX-8000T-7B.
