    I have and wonder if anyone else has...I'm thinking maybe people are having their last weekend vacations before school starts? Just a theory...

    Traffic hasn't been awful this weekend, above average but I've been that way all summer. Sales have SUCKED on my ecomm sites. A single item accounted for 60% of sales this weekend. I hate when that happens, but being featured on TV helps :).

    Persistence is key!

    Traffic will always have it's highs and lows...just keep workin on your site when the traffic gets down and it will shoot up to a new level when visitors come back...that's what I've realized...

    Traffic for me seems about normal, but my CPM fell through the floor (about half of normal)...Smells like smart pricing, which just about ruined my weekend.

    Yes! I've had a huge drop in traffic too. I'm glad I'm not the only one experiencing this.

    Well, I'm glad to hear I'm not the only one...I'd say my ad revenue dropped about 40% as well.

    Yep, Sunday is usually better than a Saturday for me. This Sunday was poor.

    My traffic (and earnings) jumped up by a huge amount this weekend, so much so I'm feeling a bit nervous about it. I've earned as much over this weekend as I used to earn each month. I just hope it lasts...

    Cryo.

    Just getting about 10% to 20% increase in traffic steadily over the last 6 weeks and that's how I like it.
