Website Data for December 3 - December 9, 2009
We saw slight up-ticks for Total Users and Uniques on both sites this week. It's a little surprising that we haven't seen a significant drop in traffic during what is normally a "slower time" of the year. Could it be the extended tax credit? Time will tell. Here are the numbers for last week:
Raw Data:
| Saint-Paul-Real-Estate.com (Unforced) | BarkerHedges.com (Forced) | |
Total Visitors | 1,169 | 1,360 |
| Unique Visitors | 1,030 | 1,166 |

Website Data for November 26 - December 2, 2009
This week's total visitors and unique visitors were down about 13% on the Unforced website and nearly 6% on the Forced Site. BUT, the total action items (IDX registrations, showing requests, contact forms) increased on both sites. Basically, our traffic was down, but our leads were up. Go figure?

Website Data for November 19 - November 25, 2009
It's now officially the "Holiday Season" so we'll see what impact that has on the weekly reporting for the last month! For this week we saw nearly identical visitors and uniques on each website, but lower than expected lead actions (IDX registrations and inquiry requests). This is likely due to the start of the usual "seasonal adjustment" for our local market.
Raw Data:

Website Data for November 12 - November 18, 2009
The overall lead totals were down this week. Visitors and Uniques were nearly identical to last week so I think we'll chalk the low lead totals up to time-of-year / approaching Holiday season. What this does tell us is that we need a higher traffic volume to achieve our goals during a slower time...maybe a test for another day! Here's the Data:

Website Data for November 5 - November 11, 2009
Well, not much changed from last week. The total visitors and total uniques are nearly identical and Saint-paul-real-estate.com (unforced site) had slightly better non-IDX lead totals while BarkerHedges.com (forced site) saw the same net total of non-IDX leads and an increase in IDX leads. A few more weeks of testing and maybe we'll be able to make some sense out of these numbers!

Website Data for October 29 - November 4, 2009
We are now reporting data for our 2nd month of testing for the Forced vs. Unforced Registration Test. For whatever reason, the week 4 numbers were the highest totals so far and this week the totals dropped a little. Probably a market indicator, but we'll see what happens in coming weeks.

Website Data for October 15 - October 21, 2009
This is the 3rd week reporting our data and the results continue to be interesting. Most pointedly this week is the total visitors and uniques are nearly identical for this reporting period. The unforced site, www.saint-paul-real-estate.com continues to set new records for weekly traffic. Just 3-weeks ago the unique visitors were 752, then in week 2 they increased to 964 and now they are at 1,103. Could this be a result of the efforts of the SEO guru's at Real Estate Webmasters? I think so...
