Title: Downloads per day
Post by: ichiro17 on June 22, 2006, 08:39
How does everyone do with their downloads per day?  Do you guys see a drop off in downloads on Thursdays, Friday, Saturdays and Sundays?  Or is it consistent every day?  I'm just wondering because I see consistent downloads for a few days in a row then it drops a bit and then it picks up.  I have about 60 photos and average about 5 or 6 downloads a day.

My only site with consistant sales is SS which most certainly has regular peaks and troughs with a midweek peak Wednesday or Thusday and very few sales on the weekend the other sites are very much more sporadic. 

In the summer Friday seems to be part of the weekend for my sales anyway.

Looking forward to when the summer lull finishes.

Yes the day's vary for me.  The order is

Wednesday is best
tuesday next
thursday
monday
friday
sunday
saturday

The weekdays are pretty similar though, however friday is not so good.  The weekends are about 50%.
Last year, the average over the whole year, brought thursday as number 1 day.

I just joined this community and just wanted to say hi to all of you, greetings from Croatia.

I'm into stock for about 3 months now , and i contribute to several stock sites but mostly SS , IS , DT and Fotolia.

Most of my income is from SS , about  3/4 of it.


I would order the days something like this :


1 - Wednesday and Thursday , both about the same , best for me.

2 - Friday -  the only day that can sometimes earn me as much as Wednesday and Thursday.

3 - Tuesday

4 - Monday - often bad day for my sales

5 - sunday  - about 1/3 of regular days income

6 - Saturday - same as sunday.

I don't like Mondays.

I has more sales last Sunday than yesterday though its just 4AM on the east coast of the USA and already I have had more sales today than yesterday. I keep on hearing about the summer slump looking forward to the autumn upturn.
