Alexa is a site that uses a system of ranking websites based on internet traffic. It is one of the tools relied upon to measure a site’s popularity in terms of visitors and page views. Based on what it declared on its website, here is how Alexa comes up with its ranking.
“Alexa computes traffic rankings by analyzing the Web usage of millions of Alexa Toolbar users and data obtained from other, diverse traffic data sources. The information is sorted, sifted, anonymized, counted, and computed, until, finally, we get the traffic rankings shown in the Alexa service.”
Ranking is therefore based on a combination of factors including usage of the Alexa Toolbar and other traffic data sources. Alexa ranks websites globally, by country, and based on category. For websites (foreign and local) that are popular in the Philippines, you may go here.
For purposes of this article, I culled the Alexa data of tech blogs in the Philippines and arranged them according to their specific rank in the Philippines. I gathered the top 10 tech blogs and I’m happy to say that TechnoBaboy.com is currently at number two.
I gathered the data manually so if you think there is a Philippine-based tech blog out there that should be in the top 10, please inform me and I will gladly check it out. To verify the ranking for each specific tech blog, go to alexa.com and type in the domain name in the search bar. Note that the ranking changes from time to time.
Here is the list of the top 10 tech blogs in the Philippines today based on Alexa.

@KowloonKid8 I agree bro. Mark of TP is the best tech blogger in the Philippines in my opinion. Anlakas ng clout nya sa buyers. I remember when O+ 8.15 was launched in SM North EDSA, the whole floor was mobbed and he was the only blogger who talked about the phone and the sale then. unbelievable power online.
A BUGGED LIFE is nice
Wow top 2 ang TB cool sir!!! fan talaga ako ng blog mo! :D
Haha! Maybe it’s high time that you revise this list. :) The Alexa rank of sites like TechPinas, Techie and even your blog have changed dramatically since you posted this. I believe TP is now at number 2 in terms of Alexa and Techie is now at number 3 or 4. Then again, it’s nothing to be proud of really. Alexa has long been superseded by other more reliable metrics.
Way to go TB!
I have’t seen one of my favorite yugatech in the list :)
Hey Techno Baboy thanks for the mention! ^_^ more Cheers to All of You
Congrats TB! Any other method you can share instead of Alexa? Thanks! You deserve the spot, and more power. :)
Yugatech still takes no1 spot! But is Alexa still dependable when it comes to these rankings??? TB must jump up and we followers all are waiting for that day!
congrats TB!
It’s the first time I encountered techpinas so I visited it. My eyes are bleeding with the font face and size! and one article about their interview with SMART is misleading and doesn’t have any substance at all. It’s hard to believe it placed 3rd in this list.
same here. i hate techpinas. it’s not objective. he’s trying to sensationalize everything.
hard to believe Mark of TP is on the list? why don’t you check TechPinas’ alexa rank again as of this month or which tech blog in the Philippines, according to Adobo Magazine and a leading and highly-reliable online metrics company, is the most read on the mobile platform? anyway, people can hate all they want. I don’t really think Mark is the type who would care. he himself finds his online success baffling.
Alexa is based on a 3-month average. These are the sites that have the highest average. This could change from time to time. Can you also make a list of top Pinoy blogs not just tech blogs?
Alexa’s algorithm is so obsolete that marketers and advertisers don’t use it anymore to determine blog’s popularity. And why would you use Alexa rank in PH to determine which tech blog is so compelling… You should have use global reach instead since a Ph-based tech blog isn’t only meant for Filipinos but also those who are located outside the Philippines. Forget about Alexa… ^_^
if that’s what you think :) and you’re suggesting I use global ranking that’s based on global users to rank popularity of a blog in the Philippines? where’s the logic in that? :) this is top tech blogs IN THE PHILIPPINES. I would understand your concern if this were simply a list of top Philippine-based tech blogs.
how about quancast?
I think different web raters such as quancast and alexa use different algorithms and protocols for web ranking system. But definitely, TB deserves the spot.

bitter TechnoPig? siguro you’re a tech blogger whose blog isn’t in the list. alexa is still relevant. it’s not the only tool around but it’s still being considered. congrats technobaboy!
It is clear that the blog post (and the title) say that its how alexa ranked it.
You can mayke your own algorithm and ranking. wala naman pumipigil.
Congrats congrats to the top blogs!
Yugatech is good but it’s full of annoying, uniformed, biased commenters. Hehe
