I started looking at some statistics today and thought I was going to have to head to the welfare line for some Gov’t Cheese then I remembered that its a beautiful holiday weekend and some people get out of their houses.
Dont panic!
Dang Nice Weather, Dang Holidays!

Your not kidding….OUCH I took a hit. Well maybe its time I get outside and forget about things for about 4 days!

Your a funny dude, Jeremy.
I think I spend a total of 12 hours a week outside, I live a sad existence.
I think our wives (respectively), spend more time out of the house then we do.
Your wife is in the medical field too, correct?
Regardless, its good to work from home.
Happy 4th!

You mean you only made a million today, Shoemoney?

I’m also hit. I live in Europe but most of my income comes from the US so I was wondering a bit why traffic and conversions are lower today.
Lets hope it starts raining soon

you read my mind, today was hell!

My sites also took a hit, I was mad.

Yea, Shoe
I was thinking the same thing, I was actually looking for soup kitchens!

I was expecting the hit I’m taking this weekend. Any holiday that is popular for getting together with the family, my visitors all but vanish. Expecting it doesn’t make it any more pleasant, though!

I hope my time to complain about this kind of stuff comes soon cause it sounds like a good problem to have
July 2, 2006 at 12:51 pm
Is this normal for holidays, or is this specific to summer holidays?
July 2, 2006 at 3:23 pm
Rain over the 4th would be wonderful!
July 2, 2006 at 6:42 pm
Indi, it is normal for all holidays. Christmas is even worse that this though!

I love summer and the holidays that go with it but with Fathers Day a few weeks back and then the LONG July 4 weekend i’m deffinetly feeling the hit. Not that the two slow weekeds killed me but whenever I have 2-3 down days in a row I get a little nervous that my traffic has gone away due to some algo change, I then have to remember it’s a holiday etc and just be patient or make new content. Happy 4th Shoemoney.

Are you guys still experiencing low rates? This is specifically directed towards YPN guys. I am noticing a huge drop , anyone else experiencing the same?
July 5, 2006 at 1:06 pm
Yes, cristmas is worse.
July 5, 2006 at 1:30 pm
Still experiencing low rates for AdSense/YPN on the 5th, even worse than the 4th. On the good news, my average spend on the Google AdWord network is down as well.
July 5, 2006 at 2:25 pm
