We are starting a new series in which we will share our results and experience every month. It is not the figures themselves that are important here, but what they show, what we can deduce from them. What is important, we know how difficult business activities are in the context of seasonality, so we want to suggest some tips for activities that, in our opinion, can bring interesting results.
So, let’s start our first update on June 2019!
June is the beginning of summer vacation, a very seasonal time, when some companies gain new clients and others have more free runs. Therefore, we will take a closer look at June seasonality trends as well.

June Seasonality Trends
June is the beginning of summer vacation for many people, which means rest and relaxation. This affects the behavior of online users, which is clearly visible when looking at search trends in various industries.
Trends Now
Below you will find some examples of June seasonality trends for the United States.
If you run a bike shop, a diving school or a school supplies store and are well prepared for the season in terms of SEO, you should now record above-average organic traffic, which will last until the end of August. After this time the decline in traffic will be a natural trend.
Pro Tips For Vacation Businesses
- Use this period to improve the user experience on your website. Check out how users convert when they enter your site. If you notice a high rejection rate or a low conversion rate, take a look at the site’s UX, see if the elements on the site load quickly and if it contains all the necessary information.
- Provide added value for users visiting your site, for example in the form of instructional videos, a series of guide articles on your blog, short term discount codes, etc.
Upcoming Trends
If you run an e-commerce, bookshop or culinary service, prepare now for September, which shows increased interest in fall topics. See the examples below!
Pro Tips For Your Business
This is the last chance to optimize your service in terms of fall phrases. Take advantage of this time and don’t let yourself be surprised. You can follow our tips.
- Check whether the individual landings have content that includes key phrases, both the popular and the longer ones, or questions that may generate more traffic in the fall. For example: “pepper recipes”, “pepper recipes to warm yourself”, “best pepper recipes this fall”, “what are the best pepper recipes”.
- Make sure that your fall landings have properly prepared internal linking and that the content within your service is connected to each other.
- Consider preparing additional content on the site from which you will link to the fall offers.
- Strengthen your fall offer with external links from strong, fall-related domains.
- Prepare landings for the non-standard keywords related to the holidays which are in the fall. This can be a big recognizable holiday like “Halloween” (10/31), but also less significant, which generates more traffic on a specific day, like “International Programmers’ Day” (9/13) or “World Car Free Day” (9/22). Look for such opportunities to promote your industry and products.
