    Yes, significantly, but I guess that it's expected, today in particular! Mostly bots...

    Yes traffic drops may be 30-40% I dint calculate. But the drop is quite a bit high than expected.

    It is natural for every business to get little slow as people take their mind off commercial matters and concentrate on being with friends and family.

    Yes and no. Some of my sites go up due to the niche they are in while several others drop since holidays are traditionally slow times for these topics.

    I have seen a drop in traffic right from the beginning of this month and so it doesn't have anything to do with Christmas (at least in my case!) ...

    Traffic for me is 205 normal on one of my sites but higher than normal on some others. The site with the biggest drop sells software to businesses so I'd expect a big drop during the holiday season.
