    Yesterday was my highest traffic day to date. So far today it looks like traffic is slightly down from my monthly average.

    It looks like I had a Cyber Sunday instead of a Cyber Monday ;)

    Yes, and while at work no less. It immediately follow "Black Friday" and the day is credited with being the single biggest online retail day of the year according to some analysts.

    Just wanted to post an update - My traffic today is the best it has every been and my AdSense earnings are above average (not my highest but getting close.)

    So far Cyber Monday has turned out to be very good for me :)

    Cyber Monday was above average for me too. Although I do not run any pure e-commerce sites, I noticed a system-wide surge in traffic, much higher than the typical Monday traffic.

    I think Cyber Monday is more likely to be better for shopping ralted sites than content sites. I am sure sites like Amazon and other sites of large retailers like Walmart must have had subsstantially more traffic than normal.

    Exactly. It's not going to have much impact on certain sites.

    Oh so it's not just me! I was happy that my earnings were reverting back to several months ago. It was a nice spike yesterday I have been tanking in the last several weeks, but now today it's back to big-time suck again. :/
