Free Certificates - Why Only on a Wednesday?

September 12th, 2009 | by Suki |

School is in session - I can tell that by the “shape” of our site traffic when I look at the stats! I love patterns (as you can tell from some of the borders of the certificates) and I like looking for them in things around me (yes, I’m a geek!). I thought I’d share with our fans and readers, the patterns I see when I log in to my Google Analytics dashboard.

During the holidays I see a more jagged up and down pattern over the course of a week. However as soon as school is in session again, the up and down turns into nice smooth curves with the highest traffic being in the middle of the week and the lowest traffic happening during the weekends.

The days that people tend to search for free certificates tend to be on Tuesdays, Wednesdays and sometimes Thursdays. The lowest day is Sunday. Doesn’t anyone want to celebrate stuff on the weekend? ;)

    Could it be that people create their certificates during the week so that they can award them on the weekend, and generally have a fun time?
