Traffic Spike
Posted by Weston in Web Observations on March 29th, 2009
TheModernSpot.com and BedHeadFurniture.com have both recently experienced a sharp traffic spike that google says came from “direct” traffic meaning they came directly to the site rather than clicking on a link on another site or a banner ad etc.
The BedHead spike was a 1000% increase in traffic. I am guessing that this traffic is related to an affiliate somehow, but I don’t know why an affiliate would send direct traffic. I am honestly a little confused as to why this spike happened.
Unique Baby Product Projects
Posted by admin in New Clients on March 27th, 2009
The Peekaru Original from Togetherbe
Today I signed up a new client that will be selling a unique baby product. They will be needing a logo, website, print materials, and a blog. I am looking forward to getting started.
This client will fit in with two of my other clients that also produce innovative baby products - Wahloo and Togetherbe. Togetherbe currently sells mei tai baby carriers called the “Freehand” as well as a baby carrier cover that is worn over a baby carrier when the weather gets nasty. Wahloo is focused on providing fashionable baby carriers in the form of a sling available in cotton and fleece.
I am wondering now if there will be an influx of new baby products because there were more births last year (2007) than during the baby boom. I guess only time will tell. In the meantime, I better get busy with this new project!
Mineral Makeup Site Launches
Posted by admin in Site Launch on March 27th, 2009
Today we launched ChristinaCosmetics.com mineral makeup websites. The site looks great and has tons of video created by Station 22. The cart is pretty cool and took a lot of customization due to the complexity of the products and the fact that the SKUs change with the delivery frequency of the products. This was a challenging site to program.
