I tried googling so many search terms and found nothing. Is New Years Day traditionally a good or bad day for web traffic, web shopping, etc? Or is it average.

Thoughts?
If it's "How to Stop Drinking Too Much," or a book of hangover cures, you may have a shot. :-)

Seriously, the post-Christmas market is quite good for eBook sales, BUT, having said that, that's heavily dependent upon the book itself. Genre, or type, area of self-help, etc. For many, Dec. 26th is the biggest sales day of the year. People get new devices, and Kindle gift cards to buy new books with. They spend like maniacs. BUT...it's hard to know if your book would fall into that "buy buy buy" period.

I doubt that helps, but...offered for what it's worth.
