    For publisher targeting the US market, did anyone have the same experience? Traffic and ctr is real low during Olympic, assuming people are spending more time in front of the tube and less online.

    Weird thing is my Sept ctr is around 30% of that in August. What the heck is happening? Anyone experience the same thing? Or any good explanation for this?

    It's probably just your site. Outside factors like the olympics will play a much smaller role than what is actually happening on your site.

    Meloknaj - but i have many sites, I'm talking ctr in general.

    Movidalatina - I got a spike in traffic and ctr right after Olympics. That's how this 'idea' came about. But the in ctr in Sept I still have no explanation for.
