Our UVs and pageviews have been climbing steadily over the previous a number of weeks (utilizing week-over-week and year-over-year comparisons every day), however yesterday was down a bit from final week and right now is wanting about the identical.
After averaging about 50 p.c under final 12 months, we have had a number of days when paveviews have been down solely 38 or 39 p.c from final 12 months. Speak about an period of diminished expectations!
One thing has modified as a result of this week I’ve already obtained extra real enterprise inquiries than the entire of January, none from the USA, which isn’t uncommon, nevertheless extra encouraging than latest months. What is important is that every one the inquiries are for widgets for which we’re very robust and well-known.
