Holiday traffic blues

how bad are your stats compared to your usually results? I've been doing a lot of testing on new offers this past week and the results haven't been that great so I am wondering if maybe I should hold off till after the new year to start testing again.
Respect PJ's grind.everyone is out doing christmas stuff. you should go do that too.
Mine is pathetic as well, but the first half of the month + last month more than makes up for it.
Ive been a bit depressed with the dip in traffic. I just keep telling myself itll all be over Jan 1 =(
made a thread a while back: http://www.wickedfire.com/shooting-shit/111514-lowest-website-traffic-2010-today-tommorow.html

I've found the late holiday season traffic to be very niche specific.
Entertainment and boredom stuff tend to blow up. Like games, music downloads, videos, social sites etc.
My traffic in those tend to triple through the time students come home on break and leave again (bored, bad weather etc).
Stuff that sells new year resolution related shit like make monies, lose fat asses etc tends to drop like a mofo. Some of my shit in those niches are down like 90%
Dating and book related stuff tends to go up by a small margin.
I wonder how adult does ?

Quite Low,Past one week,I keep refreshing the sections for a hour one or two updates,Hope this will be back in january
Unless you are selling hangover cures niche don't expect everything to go back to normal on the First.
Things will go back to normal by 15th of Jan. Traffic and conversion went way down but special promotion gave me more than triple the dollars I earn every month. So guys you need to start building list and send special offer on holiday season.
