Can Good Weather Affect Your Traffic Stats?
Not really related to making money, but I’ve found it interesting watching the traffic stats for my site over the past few weeks. Summer is finally here and I, like most other people out there tend to get away for the weekend – Yesterday I spent the entire day up north at the beach actually.
Last last weekend (weekend of May 20-22) was a long weekend here in Canada for Victoria Day, and this past weekend was Memorial Day south of the border. For both of these long weekends, my traffic took a nose-dive Friday afternoon, dropping nearly 25% from the norm and did not recover until Tuesday morning (it has yet to recover from this past weekend).
After the Victoria Day long weekend, I had suspicions that it this was the reason, but after watching it happen again this weekend has lead me to believe that this is the cause. I guess when it’s blowing snow outside, people don’t mind tapping away at their keyboard all weekend long but whe the nice weather hits, they’d rather be on the golf course.

If your users’ origin is mixed (so they do not mainly come from one country) weather will not have such a great influence on your traffic stats.
Nope, it probably can’t
I am interested to see though if traffic starts to take a dip over the weekends now that summer is here. Over 80% of CyberWyre traffic comes from the US.
It affects my traffic, as the user of my site, after spending the day building or just pottering in their sheds, come into the shade and update their shed listings
The sun is shining now in amsterdam. So i wonder what it will do with my site http://www.patrickonair.com
