Default No weekend traffic

My weekend traffic is always very low. Is that normal? Is there anything I should be doing besides the usual traffic building techniques to make it better?

Yep. I think that's normal for traffic to dip on the weekends for most sites. My sites have always done that no matter the topic. And I attribute the rise in traffic during the week to people surfing the Net during work hours (shame! shame! ) while during the weekends, people are generally out running errands and doing other activities. By the way, nice pic! I meant to comment on that earlier. It's great to actually put faces with the members.

Thanks for the comment about the pic. I had the tigger pic on my MySpace page as well and my sister has been begging me to change it! So I finally did, so I figured I'd change it here too. What you said about internet traffic during the week makes sense. I have to admit I do most of my internet browsing at work too .

When I worked away from home I did most of my browsing at work too so I can definitely relate. Tuesdays are always my highest traffic and sales days.
