Agreed.

I notice a lot of the places we get traffic from are WAY WAY down. Luckily for us, and our business model, we do a lot of our OWN promotion and branding. We also never set up an affiliate program, which sounds like is good.

Traffic seems to be down in referrals, but the bookmarkers, and direct traffic steady. How we MAKE the sales varies, but we are still where we need to be to hit the monthly goal. Last week was a nice membership sales on some sites, while others were tumbleweeds. Clip sales were off the hook. DVD down. But still on target for the month.

Ratios remain consistent as always. Time for some to make, or buy, content that actually converts and retains. See sig nig.
