Many businesses see their profit fluctuate with the seasons, especially during the holidays.  In fact, there are plenty of retailers dependent on the holiday season for the majority of their earnings.  Moreover, there are other companies that do best in warmer months - vacation destinations, for instance.  Therefore, it is only normal that companies see fluctuations in their website traffic depending on the time of year.

Sometimes you have to write a blog post simply to highlight someone else’s cleverness.  This is one of those times.  Aaron Wall’s SEO Flowchart is simply brilliant in both its usefulness and its humor.
