After Christmas Slump In Earnings

It has been a dry year so far in 2010, at least with my revenue stream.  Only thing I can come up with is that people have went on lock down with their typical spending patterns, now that the holidays are over.  Or, perhaps, I've been targeting the wrong products and niche for New Years resolutions. When all reality, I didn't plan for the New Year at all, lesson learned.

In previous years I had niches that were under high demand, year round, but this year I'm not so fortunate.  My websites have remained constant with their visitors and actual statistics, unfortunately the buying has dropped off dramatically.  So it got me thinking about the next holiday coming up and how I can better prepare for what consumers will be after.  I just hope I'm not too late to the game because I've been setting on my laurels.

When Did December Get Here?
Oh Christ, where have I been? It seems like just yesterday I was sweating outside, forcing myself to finish mowing my yard, weed eating, building flower beds, and other general outdoorsy fun summer stuff. Damn't!!!111 Now I have to go Christmas shopping! It's been a long couple of weeks, but the
Marketing Christmas, After Christmas
I'm faced with an unusual question this year, which is how do I continue to market a Christmas affiliate site after Christmas has ended.  My Christmas site focuses on a specific niche, but is heavily dependent upon Christmas, so basically now my traffic has dropped out and I'm faced with
