    Is that what that is? GREAT! I thought I'd become unpopular or something by looking at my stats. One of my sites gets 1,000+ uniques like clock work, everyday for a month and today it was only 800. :( I was a little bit concerned.

    Some sites will do better on holidays, and some will do worse. It all depends on the target market you have targeted, be it teens, or working age people.

    If your target is over the age of 21 or so, then you will get more hits during business days while people are bored at work.

    If your target is under 21, you will get more hits while people are at home and have nothing better to do but surf.

    This is one of the worst weekends, because not only is it a holiday in the USA, but in Canada as well. Usually holidays (besides xmas and new years) fall on different days in the USA and Canada.

    For some reason my AdSense/day for one site stayed at $15-$20/day even though that the amount of impressions went down by half.

    Ummm

    Revenues are up 20% for me this weekend so far....

    I think the east coast downpour helped me though.

    If your site is tended towards losers, then you will get visitors on holidays..

    Real people go out on holiday, unlike m.... I mean unlike you guys.

    :D

    Peace,

    Yes the streets are always full of people in a hurricane....Heck I run around nude in them myself...

    (or kids who play games may not be allowed to play in the rain by their parents who happen to care....I guess azizny parents were too busy working to teach him to use common sense and stay inside during a hurricane:rolleyes::eek:)
