Drastic Drop in Traffic
Not entirely sure why, but I’m seeing the same thing as Darren: a drastic drop in traffic.
Not entirely sure why at this point, but yeah, traffic’s back down to pre-”fame” levels, about 5000 pages/day (from 12K-15K/day).
I’m investigating now.
Btw, happy holidays!

Bunch of people rushed to go check out suprnova.org’s messages. Problem solved.
You have a bunch of pirates viewing your site. Enjoy. :)

Hi J.
I’m experiencing the same thing in Scandinavia.
I think it’s the Christmas Holyday – people are stressing getting things done before the Holydays…..
Best Regards

Major Google update

Google is in a state a flux right now. Major SERP changes are happening. I think for you it’s the combo of the surge settling down a bit, holiday shopping and Google.

It’s the holidays. People are on vacation and off the internet. Traffic will probably rise again in the new year :).

Normally I’d have not even mentioned this. But, it was 50% overnight, which is odd. Ah well, maybe it was the suprnova.org users ;)

You shouldn’t tell everyone that you have the biggest torrent mirror hosting shareing films and music service list out there!
Thank god the suprnova.org users aren’t hammering the site for their .torrent fix.
Damn, now the secret is out.
…
Now let’s see what the robots make out of this and when you are in the top 10 suprnova links, and then the questions come in, I can see it already ;)

I subscribed to your feed. Is there a way to trak how many are reading the feed rather than hitting the site?
Thanks

I’ve found it to be an increase in people reading my feed and a decrease of free time for many people because of the Christmas season. Look for January to be a big month as many people will have new computers to tinker on nightly.

Reed – this is in fact a very good question :-)
Anyone?
Best regards

I’ve got my log files spitting out 2 analyses: one for the feed and one for the rest of the site. It basically gives me a fairly accurate guage, except that BlogLines and similar centralized services skew it, so it’s hard to tell exactly how many subscribers there are.

I’m noticing a drop in traffic from Google SERPS too, the changes seem to be across the board for most SERPS, most sites up, some down – the annual Google Xmas present.
Given the drop in rankings from other WordPress blogs, I wonder if WordPress was not invited to the Google Dance.

Mine are still going up, but I’m new and I haven’t gone to WP 1.3, yet. Any data to support the move to 1.3 making a difference?

I’m at 1.2 still.

My traffic went down to 30% of normal levels over night also – and have not recovered yet. Its been 5 days now. Silly stuff Google….
