Did the World Cup affect the traffic of your site?

    I found the traffic in the recent week dropped significently. And the click rate also dropped. I wonder if it was because of World Cup. Did the World Cup affect the traffic of your site?

    Yes, i will say yes because my niche is more on manufacturing and business
    However, for the soccer niche, then sure it will increase

    I think that if ESPN didn't have a contract to show the World Cup on their channel than most people would have made so much money if they have a World Cup streaming site or something affiliated to the World Cup.

    It couldn't help me as my websites are not relating to soccer or sports.
