    Anyone else experiencing this? Many of my sites starting Thursday a slight decrease in traffic, all positions still there, checked many of my domains and it seems to be for most of them...does this have to do anything with Labor Day Weekend? I think so?

    I'm having the same experience as SEO-Ranter. Thursday, Friday and Saturday were down about 10%, but today was a blockbuster day for traffic.

    Its labor day. What would you expect. The summer holidays are an outdoor thing.

    Yeah. Quite a few people will get locked up this weekend and will not have access to the internet.

    It's natural that we experience traffic decline. But do you think the labor day is the reason here? How about in other country that does not have a holiday on that same day?

    Traffic goes up and down without any reason some times. It has its own mind I guess.

    Weekends bite, and summers blow. When traffic is down it is a great reminder to get your own butt outside.
