[…] In February 2006, Ron Hornbaker created a tool that used the Alexa engine (owned by Amazon) that compared and ranked the traffic patterns of up to 5 different websites . The site was called Alexaholics.com and it became an overnight sensation among people that practiced Search Engine Optimization (SEO). While the initial relationship was warm, the situation turned sour in March 2007 when Alexa tried to shutdown Ron’s tool by demanding back the domain name through ICANN and blocking the graphs from appearing on his website.
