How Are Your Christmas Sales Working So Far?

Sales for my sites are not quite what I had hoped for so far. There is definitely an uptick in sales but I'm looking at hundreds when I thought there would be a couple of thousands. Most of my sites are amazon, I believe they are optimized and promoted properly and even my conversions are up.

I'm thinking at this point that the economy is the elephant in room.

    I have several sites that focus on toys, an action figure sub-niche actually, and sales have been good IMO. Even my small adsense site is seeing a larger amount of clicks than it normally does this time of the year.

    I think it just depends on your niches and whats selling and hot right now.

      Thanks for answering, Mike. You have a point, I don't have any toys but I do have some sites that tend to do well during this time, like luggage.

        I believe a lot of people are learning not to overspend at Christmas.

          Last-minute shopping sprees has been typical the last couple of years. And, there are always those after Christmas bargain hunters.
