Traffic Statistics
I love statistics. I mean I really, really like to statistical analysis. One of the things that I needed to know was which of these contact lens sites garnered the most traffic. I don’t have access to anything resembling official sales figures — they all claim to be the biggest, best, quickest, most responsive, or [...]
Hang on to your wallets! Prices going UP?
I just finished the weekly (or whenever I have a spare 15-minutes) update of the contact lens price grid and you’ll notice a bit of RED in the mix. Prices on a few of the lenses appear to be rising. I’ve been wondering when this might begin to happen — things have been pretty stable [...]
