Christmas is bad for PTC

[plentybux]

Christmas and New years is possibly the worst time of the year for PTC's unless you can offer your members something good to keep them coming back as I witnessed over the past 1-2 weeks.

If you wanna see what I am talking about, here is my alexa stats for 1 of my more popular sites.

Plentybux.com Site Info

lol, i think every business (minus retailer) lose people temporarily.

They'll come back after they sober up from the holidays.

well, going from a $200 profit to $400 loss in a matter of 5-6 days was a bit sobering to me lol

I used to know a guy named Marc Hershey back in 2002 or 2003 lol.

Well, I would have been around.. 11 years old so I doubt it was me :P
Anyways, Who designed your .net(Gen4) site? It's pretty nice!

I'm looking for a designer, but I'm not quite ready to pay $200+ for a custom theme. Lol

I do have a little bit of a skill for designing, but not well enough to edit 5000 pages like in GeN4 haha

Well, I was 15-16 back then and Alen Design designed it for $120 but I bought the rights for it so its custom to my site only otherwise it would have been around $80 if im not mistaken.

Here is a pointer to all GeN4 owners.

Dont spend money on a custom theme before you release it. Save the money and advertise it first. I could turn $350 into a $400 - $2700/week profit. So, Grow first, customize later.

Well, even 120 would do good for me!
To keep from flooding this thread, I'm going to PM you. Thanks for all the info!
