How times change...
 

2-3 years ago I was doing 1:40 every period with a major sponsor for nearly 2 years...

2 years ago it dropped over a very short time period to 1:500...

since then it's declined to around 1:1200...

this period it's been 1:4100.

How times change. Thankfully other sponsors have taken up some of the slack and I'm sending a lot less traffic to the sponsor above these days (mostly traffic from older links/sites now that'd be a pain in the ass to change). It's just interesting how hugely sales can drop off over a period of time. Let's hope the 2257 crap doesn't stop more fresh sites/sponsors from continuing to popup so fresh stuff can be presented to the surfers and sales kept going :)

Oh and bearing in mind the above ratios aren't 1st page hits the true ratio gets even worse :upsidedow
