I was constantly trying to improve the tour, making changes etc, and when I would finish with a stage I'd test it out by posting galleries for a few days in a row to generate some quick sales and compare to prior results. Usually I'd have some memberships come in during that first week or so of getting listed on TGP's, however the vast majority of sales would come in during the weeks following with no referrer.

I could only conclude that people were viewing the galleries, checking out the tour, maybe bookmarking the site or making a mental note of the url, then coming back weeks later to buy a membership.
