In her words “is a non- invasive ‘medical’ massage developed though several thousands of years. It is renowned not only for its effectiveness in the treatment of musco-skeletal disorders such as arthritis & sciatica aswell as internal problems such as headaches, circulatory problems, digestive disorders, hormonal imbalances, stress & much more.

Summary: Q1 ’10 performance on Q4 ’09
Many sites hit a lull in visitors in Q4 and Q1 there is a renewed interest in varied websites including the ones that Sumobaby have built and support. On aggregate traffic had fallen by +22% Q4 ’09-Q1 ’10 and similarly those clients that are paying for SEO services saw an increased by +22% Q4 ’09-Q1 ’10.
A positive growth for clients paying for SEO services and depending on client mix the volume increase may effect proportional changes. It is expected that Q2 & Q3 in 2010 will continue to see significant growth.
Traffic distribution
| Traffic source | % | Q3-Q4 diff | high | low |
|---|
| Direct | 21% | +3 | 41.1% | 4.6% |
| Referring | 15% | -2 | 34.9% | 4.9% |
| Search | 64% | -1 | 92.2% | 41.4% |
On aggregate there are no major fluctuations in traffic distribution. The highs and lows of each traffic source needs to be taken in context of a particular website, so where you may think that a low direct traffic volume would indicate poor brand awareness it may not be the case if that site happens to particularly excel in SEO.
The graph below shows a historical record of the change.

The previosuly unutilised central content now features some of the most important information, upcoming promotion and events. The homepage relfects the charm that the Organic & biodynamic wine shop, bar and deli has to visit.
