Why do website hits go down at the weekend?

Does it mean people spend their time surfing at work instead of working at work?

    Cause people are out doing stuff -- like PHYSICAL stuff - walkin' the beach, hittin' garage sales, goin' to the movies... yanno - the real world as opposed to the Internet wwWorld

    I often wonder if it is part of the reason why we are in a financial mess, have bankers been surfing and tweeting during their working day instead of concentrating on figures!

    A lot of people do their blogging activities while working, but a lot of people spend time enjoying their weekend as well. I don't post much on the weekends for this same reason.

      fruitcake,
      I try not to post on weekends myself, but sometimes that's when I get the free time to write.
      I wonder how many bloggers avoid posting on weekends for this same reason?

      I do a fair amount of my writing on the weekends as well, but wait to post them during the week when there's a better chance they'll be read.

    They're doin' stuff... like others said. And cleaning - like in my case.

    I think more surfing gets done during 'work hours' then people really understand.

    My stats go up on the weekends most of the time.

    Yeah my stats go up also. I get about 50% of my visits on one of my sites n the weekend. I suppose it varies from one niche to another

    I have always assumed that the reason my stats go down dramatically on the weekend is because my readers are enjoying some time with family and friends. I may blog on weekends but I don't usually publish because I don't get significant traffic again until Monday.

    Maybe cause lots of people surf the web all day at work;)
