Whatever happened to weekends?

New earning's pattern emerging

[OptiRex]

Similar to several other posters here the past 4 weeks have seen record earnings however I have two questions to ask if they have also seen the following.

1. My weekend days used to earn between 50-70% of an average weekday, remarkably they are now earning the same.

Are you?

2. Yesterday, Superbowl Sunday. Please give me more days like this, nearly another record day.

Guys, check you accounts, someone was on-line:-)

Was your Superbowl Sunday good?

[Nitrous]

No it was crap actually!

[greatstart]

Actually, Super Bowl Sunday was slower than normal, as I had predicted. I had less traffic, thus less income. Maybe if I had a site related to football, I would of had a better day.

My Super Bowl Sunday was very good, probably because so many of my readers are outside the U.S.

It'll be interesting to see what dips I observe during important World Cup matches. :-)

I am UK based, yesterday was my highest earner since I started (about 4 months after the launch of AdSense), Saturday was ALWAYS my worst day and as you (OptiRex), Sunday was always around 60% of weekdays.

Well Saturday and Sunday have kicked a$$, totally and today is up to Sundays earnings at 3:40pm UK time:))

Since and during Jagger I added about 200 new content full pages nicely split into readable length pages, the high earnings started Friday 3rd Feb and reading the datacentre thread this could be when BigDaddy was rolled out in the UK, my site also went back to first page in position 3. All pages are NOT yet indexed either.

Its seems to be all search engine traffic as my page views are 50% higher, I had NO canonical problems with the site before anyone asks, I took a bit of a knock during jagger but settled nicely on first page in 5 slot after jagger, and now am in 3rd for my MAJOR keyphrase.

BigDaddy.........I luuuuuv you (so far anyway)

World Cup matches

don't forget about the Olympics too.

What I have noted is on weekends repeat visitors are too less and I get max traffic from search. Because of this the CPM increases and earnings are sometimes at par with weekdays.

Super Bowl Sunday was a bust for me, worst day ever on my site, but I expected as much since more than 90% of my traffic is U.S. January saw weekends earning the same or more than my weekdays as well (a very pleasant suprise). I noticed a larger inventory of advertisers since the beginning of the new year. Let's hope it continues.

For me Saturday remains the worst day by far, but I guess it all depends on the mix of at-home surfing vs. office/school surfing.

[jetteroheller]

Last 2 weeks, Friday replaced Saturday as the weakest day of the week.

The traffic on Saturday and Sunday is lower, but eCPM higher.

Saturdays and Sundays are always good for me. Superbowl Sunday was okay, but not spectacular.

[spaceylacie]

This past Saturday was my best day ever, that is, until Sunday which became my best day ever. My sites are not about football and have a mainly female audience. Usually I do better during the week than on weekends, but have been having better weekends lately.

Today is looking good too... not sure yet if it will top yesterday or not.

[celgins]

Spaceylacie... I guess the women who were not watching the Superbowl...(probably lots of them)...were hanging out on your site! :)

[incrediBILL]

I think SuperBore and the lack of anything but repeat TV programming chased all the nerds to their computers as my SuperBore Sunday was HUGE!

And yes, weekends have been taking an upswing lately, but it's happened before.

Today is going to be a blockbuster day for me doing about 75% of yesterday by noon!

I can hardly wait to see where this day ends, it's like watching a stock price soar ;)
