I know this topic has come up before, but its been a while. Do you find that sales are steady all year, or do you see occasional spikes that are consistent from year to year?

I would say December(due to holidays)

i think slowest would be the first months of starting out and winter. summer would probaly be the busiest because of all the people that have time to set a site up. and btw your sig doesnt have a link in it

Our busiest months are usually June-August, however, it always seems to change. It really depends on how much you market and get your name out there.

Most people say that December is the slowest, but of course brand recognition and specials always factor into sales.

Here is no "slowest" / "busiest" month in the year for me - it's changing all the time.

Thats odd. Yeah, December has been slow the last few years, but 2008 set a monthly sales record here as well. It seems to be a lot slower the last couple days, though, which is one of the reasons I was wondering. Hopefully its just the holidays winding down and things will pick up again.

On a note of that, a few of our orders in late December had "where did you hear about us" set as Christmas Present so I'm guessing a few people did get services for Christmas, in our case Gameservers ;)

I guess this is a good sign in regards to the economy as well.
