Default Moon effects on internet sell

Do you think that full moon anyhow effects internet sell? I have wirked in e-shop for three years and had access to all date. What is VERY interesting to me is that I have discovered corellation between moon movement and amount of money people spend in e-shop.

Do you believe this is possible and do you advice that I should explore this phenomenom little deeper?

Well, you always hear that various things happen more often during a full moon (crime, suicide, etc.), so there might be something to that. (However, the "lunacy" thing is thrown around enough that it seems like it's probably an urban legend rather than actual statistics.)

It might be interesting to check out, though (you never know what you'd get). But I would also look at other variables that are linked to phases of the moon but not dependent on phases of the moon--Occam's razor and all. For example, if payday hits around the same time there's a full moon, then there's a good chance your results have nothing to do with the moon.

I could see more sales occurring at any site selling silver bullets. Also I assume that the porn beastiality sites would be popular with the werewolves.

If you find more e-shops that would share their data and we cancel variables such as "end of the month", etc... you can have interesting conclusions.

Good luck with the "Moonlight study".

Why don't you try amazon as a beginning? If need any help in Spain just let me know. I'm a curious sociologist intereseted in weird studies ;)
