Yeah that's a good insight - even though traffic has been higher than I expected this early, the 99/1 framing tracks with what little data I've got so far :D
Funny rollercoaster on the traffic side though. About 2 weeks after launch I got a big surge for around a week (like 40x the usual), then it nosedived back to my previous baseline almost overnight. Same day it tanked I'd pushed out programmatic FAQ sections on the performer pages, thinking it'd read as "helpful content" to Google. Not sure if that's what caused it or if it was just some honeymoon period ending - rolled the FAQs back and things are slowly recovering.
Right now my main focus is quality backlinks, so I'm scouring sources for that.
