Web Traffic dips during Christmas and Newyear

Have you been paranoid about your recent fall in traffic? Have you checked your google listings, page rank, analytics, webmastertools for the same reason? Has your adsense earnings fallen to pennies?

If Yes, we recommend you to wait until the 2nd week on January. Your traffic should gradually come back to normalcy. According to web research, it is seen that the traffic to almost every site starts falling 1 week before the Christmas until 1 week after the new year as much as 30-50% with similar dip in advertisement earning. It is a "Holiday-effect" and according to our theory its time to take a short break from blogging and enjoy like everyone else.

Now you know where your visitors are?

Paradoxically, the sites like Amazon.com, Bestbuy.com, gift websites, travel websites have drastic boost in traffic. The reason is obvious.

Alexa Ranking is not accurate, easily manipulable

Alexa is one of the leading Web statistics and comparison site in the Internet. It is accurate for the sites with High traffic but not for smaller or medium traffic sites. It can be easily influenced by a single person's use.
Alexa Ranking is taken as reference in Website worth, Website value calculation, Website ranking by Many other sites around the internet. But..

How is Alexa Ranking made? What is it Based on?
Alexa ranking system is based on data it collects from the millions of alexa tool bar users around the internet.
It calculated ranking based on Number of visitors using alexa toolbar, number of pageviews from them and time on site.
So if your website is getting a 10,000visitors but  only 10-20 use alexa toolbar you are likely to lag behind in the ranking to a Blog that receives 200 visitors per day with 50-60 viewers using alexa toolbar.
So I think it's rather irrelevant system.

Most Valuable Visitor to Your Blog

Which visitor clicks on ads?
The outer skin of the blog is made by templates and themes, your articles pump Life into your blog and the color to this life is added by the Web traffic or your visitors. Visitors are the most important thing when it comes about marketing a blog.

Visitors to your Blog come in different forms and from several sources.
In my experience, visitors come to blog with different purposes.
1. Some visitors come in search of information – Genuine ones.
2. Some come to examine the layouts and designs – technical ones.
