Maybe the they find a house on Monday and find the financing on Tuesday. Monday, Tuesday and Friday being the best days for traffic on my sites. Regardless, after a terrible October, my traffic is increasing and back to summer levels. Very interesting, your Monday to Tuesday comment got me checking and mine seems pretty flat.

I have been working at exposing more and more data and analysis of web traffic from our site over the past year as a deliberate strategy to build media profile / brand awareness / industry stature and then naturally web traffic. The most interesting correlation was a <a href="http://www.realestate.co.nz/blog/media-seriously-impacts-the-psyche-of-nzers-when-it-comes-to-property.html" rel="nofollow">piece</a> I wrote back in May titled "Media seriously impacts the psyche of NZ'ers when it comes to property" highlighting the impact of media on web traffic to real estate listings. The media swooped on it believing I was trying to blame the media for the downturn in the market. It clearly showed how paranoid they were of their own influence!! Glenn,
