But I have noticed this drop in traffic since late last year. (Thanks Rabbit for listing the stats tho - wow!)

The "good news" is I AM getting more Google traffic tho not enough to make up for the drop in tube traffic BUT G traffic is (theoretically) more targeted so the sales have beem...steady. But it feels like it's on a knife's edge, like we are on the verge of some kind of tipping point with the tubes.

Or maybe it's just the eggnog talking.
So the answer is? No, or at least not enough to notice.

Signs ups are the only thing that matter. If a drop in Tube traffic leads to a drop to paysites in Tube traffic and a drop in sign ups. We have to hold back before breaking out the Asti Spumante.
