The After Dinner Rush

Do blog readers keep restaurant hours? Have you noticed that weekdays can be slow and that blog traffic tends to pick up over the weekend? On a good day in the blogsphere, it seems that you get your early-riser breakfast crowd, hopefully followed by a few readers who trickle in around lunch time. Then there’s the after-dinner rush when your chance to tempt readers is at its highest. There’s always the possibility of the occasional late night blog hopper dropping by. If the atmosphere at your site is good and the reading is appealing, your visitors might leave you a comment. Getting a comment is like getting a good tip.

    As a matter of fact, I was even wondering if blogging would prove to be seasonal as well. More posters in the summer when people take vacations.
    I’m here from Michele’s Meet and Greet.. hope your headache goes away soon.

    I think it’s slower in the summer, warmer weather too. More people outside I think. I know that’s the case with me.
