Do you see a spike or a drop in your traffic during the holidays?
Hey Wesley,
Definitely a drop in views during the holidays. The reason being, I think is because many are not on the computer as often because of spending time with family, shopping, cooking, enjoying the company of their families, etc.
That was my thoughts as well. Thanks for commenting.
I think it's also true that people are more likely to surf the web at work than at home.
Traffic dropped for me... but, then again, it wasn't super-high to begin with so I'm not sad. :'(
I can't say that I'm sad either. Just wondering if others saw the same things that I did. Thanks for commenting.
I see a spike in my craft articles in the month before Christmas, although crafts are generally evergreen. Other articles don't dip, but they certainly haven't spiked either.
The craft thing makes sense. I bet a lot of people will make crafts for Chirstmas presents. Thanks for commenting.
A definite drop, as I dropped from an average of 600 views per day to a heart-breaking 200.
My traffic went up this last week, though it wasn't high to begin with.
Wesley,
This is a tough question for me to answer. My traffic spiked right before and during the Thanksgiving holidays, and then took a big hit around December 10. It went up a little before Christmas, but now has been going down a little between Christmas and New Years.
Mine was mostly up between Thanksgiving and Christmas. About three days before Christmas it dropped dramatically. I'm attributing this to the fact that most people are spending time with their families. Thanks for commenting.

Hi,I have a question. The traffic to my hubs was really picking up for a while up until the holidays. Then, for about the past week and a half or so, I've hardly had any traffic at all. Is that normal during the holidays? Any help would be much appreciated.Sincerely,The...

Hi,Is it possible that the time right after a big event such as Black Friday actually has less (much less...) search engine traffic than normal?Because this is what I am seeing for my hubs... had a nice spike, now big crash. Am lower than 4 days ago now.

My traffic has really dropped off during the past several weeks. Is this normal due to it being the holiday season?

Hey friends this month am experiencing major drop in views. I believe this is the same with many of you. I would like to know, Hubs on which topics bring good traffic during Holidays.
