Alright I probably shouldn't bring this up, but I can't help but find out if I'm not alone in this...
My Page Views have tanked soooo much the last few weeks. I used to update and get about my Sub count in Page views on the first and close to that number again on the 2nd day. Now I get more like half? I used to get close to 10k PV per update now I get more like 6k? It was a sudden drop about 2 weeks ago- around the time the contest ended.
Now I'd usually chalk this up to just a dry time, but the panic of not qualifying for the ad rev credit got me to actively advertise and do things like Cross Promotions and such. In the past a single friend promoting me on their comic usually made a noticable difference in PVs but not this time, and I had 3 friends to promote me. So how bad are my own stats without the help of the promos(They were actually worse this week than they were last week without promos) I'm still gaining subs like usual, but my PVs are super low comparatively. Am I just coincidentally getting non-US views? It just seems like such a sudden drop my mathematical brain is having a hard to understanding it without a reason.
