Here is a very strange thing to me, My several sites are in top five on highly competative pharmacy related keywords, I get about 150-200 daily unique visitors a day, they are highly targeted. In the last 10 days I get very few sales, I get about 2 sales a day. I don't know what is the problem, I had about 5 sales a day for 6 months. Now I've 60% decrease. Do you suffer the same?

The simple question is this... how are you ranking for your key terms. There has been no downward traffic in Yahoo overall - especially this time of year.

My rankings are almost the same for the past 6 months, but conversations have been decreased since 10 days ago.
Can't find our what might be the problem.

Noximus -

I know someone that used to be in the pharm sector and their conversion rate was over 10%. It's very competitive and can be affected by searchers shopping around. I don't know if you're an affiliate, but perhaps a neighbor in the search results has recently dropped their prices.

This time of year most peeps are openning up their wallets.
