Now my traffic has been stable for years, google loves us and is showing it in its traffic. So im stumped onto whats wrong here, traffic to sponsors is a little lower then usual, but not alarming.
One thing we found tho there were a lot of old hacked files on our server that the host claimed were cleaned out (files with over two years old hacks in em, and old backdoors to the box)
Now my question,
How are your sales since the 9th of september?
Do you see also lower numbers going to the sponsors and sales absolutely tanking to the 0 level?
thanks in advance,
Ed

Ed,
It's the same here. On my end I see sales dropping since July 2011. July 2011+ August 2011 have been the worst summer months ever for me. Don't talk about a summer slow down as I have never had that before. Last year August 2010 was one of the best months ever. But this summer it has been a nightmare. And on top of this it looks that September 2011 will be even the worst month ever. My traffic is up and I have never had more traffic than today but sales are very poor. I usually have arround 15-20 sales per day but now it's 3-4-5 sales per day... 5 sales per day is a top day and before July 2011 I found it was a shit day when I had 10 sales per day...
And believe me it's for everybody the same. I hear webmasters blaming their processors (CCBill) that they're scrubbing too much and that can be true but in fact the total image is that the economy is bad, the stock markets are bad and there's a whole lot of free porn on the web (tubes) so why should one buy porn...? I still make sales but it's only 20%-25% of what it was three months ago...
