These are the stats returned by my provider:

day: visits

12: 23
13: 5
16: 1
19: 5
20: 15
21: 25
22: 1
24: 4
25: 5
29: 1

Total: 85

I’m not able to tell whether any of those visits turned into sales.

Thanks once again for such a nice initiative :)

I had 25 visitors from indiexmas, no sales.

I didn’t track traffic but got a sale on the day my door opened which isn’t too bad considering there were 3 other games on that day too. Made a sale since which may have been related, hard to tell.

Anyway thanks Juuso. Maybe even more promotion next year would be cool!

Just quickly: Over the two weeks shine it was on the site, I’ve had 112 visits; just over 20% of them converted into demo downloads; The one sale on the day my door opened *might* be attributable to IndieXmas.
Also, there were two distinctive peaks in visitors. The day my door opened, I received 15 visitors, on the day Kotaku posted about it (basically a full week later) I received 64 visitors.
All in all, not too bad for not having to do much at all ;)
