I have been keeping track of my blogs traffic and doing some research and case studies. I have found that the traffic for all my blogs goes down during Saturdays and Sundays. Have you noticed this for you blog?

What could be the reasons for this fall in traffic?

It could be a simple reason, during weekends the internet usage will be less. People are at home and they want to spend time with their family rather than spending time in front of the computer. They may not check their emails or go through the RSS Feed Readers to read your posts and click on the links.

What should you do for this?

You cannot force anybody to come to your site on weekends, so you can plan your postings and avoid or do less postings on weekends. I would suggest that you don’t publish posts on weekend unless its something related to the day or a breaking event or news. You can also take a break on weekends or do your site maintenance, plan your posts or go through the stats of your blog. You can reply to pending emails and clear your inbox.

Do you see fall in traffic during weekends? If you are not checking the stats of your blog or Adsense revenue, you are not in the right path, you should do that. You can use free tools like the Google Analytics for tracking your blog performance.
