Damn, weekends SUCK for sales!
 

Friday through Sunday's sales usually equal the sales I make on Monday. It's ridiculous, there isn't a big difference in traffic!

How are your weekend sales?

not as good as weekdays thats for sure

I made 3.32 today!!!

This weekend is a bit slow! :Oh crap

I make money every day of the week, doesnt really matter.

Really? I usually do better on weekends.

yea weekends blow. glad to see not alone on this one

doing alright the past 3 days. hopefully it continues but I bet I'll see a 1:4000+ day with ccbill coming up.

Really? What are you promoting?

I agree, it makes no difference :thumbsup

Saturday is my favorite day :thumbsup

great weeking so far

I really do not understand. I've seen a lot of stats from other sites, and you're right guys, sales during the weekend are usually low for most of them.
For some odd reason, Friday, especially Saturday (except the 2nd third of the day), Sunday, and Monday, are by far the best days we have. On a Saturday, we can sell in 1/2 day 80% of what we sell on a regular day. Also note that our sales do not jump up, and down, like I've seen on plenty of sites. We have very stable, and predictable sales, mostly due to the fact that we have tons of returning customers. We only had one period with low weekend sales, and that was around Christmas.

I really think we have our own trend, and stats. At least it looks like that.
I'm comparing our stats to more or less 20 other sites, over a couple of years.

It's also odd that 1/3 of our paying customers log into the site everyday.
We're told that 10% is normal, and 20% is almost crazy. We pass 30%.

Just our 2 cents.

Im at 1/3 exactly, too, what does it mean btw?

About the sales, my sales are similar each day per week, traffic is lower on weekends, sales the same, so ratios are better. I dont see any huge drop on some special day.

I know I hate it when I have slow sales and somebody comes in and says what im about to say. Today is awesome. We had our average # of sales toppled by noon. Things havent slowed down yet.
Watch, tommorow will suck for me :(

Thats strange, most of my sales come on the weekend, almost twice as much as weekdays...

Dating does good on weekends. I think my AFF sales go up and some of my other stuff falls off.

Weekends are a slight drop from what I'd expect on Mond, Tue or Fri. But nothing is as bad as a Thursday.

that's strange, saturdays are my best days.

It means that if we have, let's say 30.000 paying customers, everyday more or less 10.000 unique IP / logins access the member's area. That would be, including shared login, and multiple IPs, more or less 14.000 IPs logging in.
These are just sample numbers, not actual ones :-)

This weekend has been brutal, starting Thurs. night .. sad thing is, traffic is up across the board .... :helpme

I understand the numbers game, I was just curious, what does it mean to have 10% members logged in per day or 30% logged in. If they like the members area more(30%), etc...:)

Apparently 10% is normal, 20% mean they love your site, 30% is SUPER.
That's what I'm told by someone that has been doing this since 1995

yup me too. :Oh crap

It kind of stopped selling great at 4pm CST, but that's normal on a Saturday.

nice :) thanks for the info
