Do the low website traffic trends of summer get you down? You may already be frustrated or freaking out about your decreased website traffic.
Summertime is one of the low website trends of the year! With kids out of school, warm weather, and vacations, it’s normal for you website traffic to decrease in summer.
There are many other reasons that your website traffic may be declining. In this article I focus on the website traffic trends of summer. This means that you already have great traffic going to your website and are doing all the right things to make that happen.
Then suddenly, June, July and August hit and you see the low website traffic on your statistics graph. Or maybe you noticed a huge decrease in leads or sales.
Either way, you heart sinks and you get a sick feeling in your stomach. Am I right?
Let’s take a look at three ways you can survive the low website traffic trends of summer!
Simple Advice for Low Website Traffic Trends
Here are your website traffic tips:
Keep doing what you are doing
Here’s a big mistake that people make when they get low website traffic in summer. Feeling down, they simply stop writing blog posts. I hear this all the time, “well, I’m not getting the website traffic so why bother writing blog posts?”
This is a big mistake! During the low website traffic trends of summer, you must keep writing blog posts as usual. Believe me, the traffic will pick up again in September and beyond. If you keep on your consistent blog writing schedule, you will reap the rewards during this high website traffic trend. If you give up, well, there you go.
Learn something new
Since this is a slower time of year, take the time to learn a new marketing strategy. Just think, you can have a new marketing strategy perfected by the time September rolls around and be ready for more leads, sales and business partners.
Work on relationship building
The low website traffic trends during the summer months are a great time to build relationships with people both on- and off-line. Although people are not as interested in buying products or joining businesses, you will be planting seeds. When the Fall season comes around and those people are looking for products and business, you will be the first person they think of!
Low website traffic in summer can be a big disappointment but if you use your time wisely and continue on your plan, you will reap the rewards later!

Summer has always been a slow time for web software. Like it says, more and more people are out on vacation enjoying the summer. Plus all the kids are out of school. Traffic always picks back up in the Fall.
Great article. Just have to keep pushing.
Great article. It is indeed disheartening to look at the numbers sometimes when web traffic dives down around this time of year, especially now, at the end of August.
my web site is very new, I am glad I am getting ANY traffic ..lol
I am facing this issue in this month even the rankings of my articles are same. But thanks for confirming that traffic of other websites also go low during summer.
