    I am sure someone else will have a more knowledgeable answer, but until it is posted, I will offer you mine. Holidays like Valentine's Day, Father's Day, and Mother's Day are going to have big online spending. Around Christmas time, especially Cyber Monday would definitely see an uptick in online spending.

    Hello

    I don't have any actual stats or figures - but I can share some insight into this.

    Whilst there are obvious trends in online shopping such as more people will shop online at Christmas time or any other holiday in the year. Then you may get people spending more at the end of the month (pay day time).

    Having said that, as long as you diversify and dip your hand into a few different niches there is nothing stopping you making money at any time of the year.

    For example:

    January - This is a good month for "quit smoking" products, and "weight loss" products because people will be making their new years resolutions.

    Febuary - A good month for "romance" products, "get your ex back" products, or even "how to be happy on your own" type products for Valentines day.

    March - April - May - These could be good months for "Easter products", Gardening products, and "spring cleaning" type products.

    June - July - Good months for "travel" products. Again could be a good month for "weight loss" and "detox" products becuase people want to lose weight before their vacation.

    August - September - Good months for back to school products, such as school uniforms, stationary and schooling supplies.

    October - November - December - The first two of these months are good for "Halloween" and "bonfire night" and of course all three of these months are a big spending time with Christmas coming up.

    Now if you were to own a handful of websites for example:

    1. Weight loss niche site
    2. Quit smoking niche site
    3. Gardening niche site
    4. Dating niche site
    5. Travel niche site
    6. Home schooling niche site
    7. Toys or gifts niche site

    Then what is stopping you promoting these sites and making money all year round.

    If you are an Amazon affiliate, then December is definitely the time to make the money. Conversions are usually 3-4x greater than the other months.
