Regarding this:"If fewer people are buying products in their niche, as is the case with a lot of industries these days, perhaps flat growth means they actually grew their business as the market shrunk. "It would be quite a coincidence for the market to have contracted by such an amount at the time of 30 days of SEO efforts (although possible I guess).  30 days seems short or have I misundestood?Also, there are different types of customers, ideal and peripheral, which have different conversion rates...maybe they have their ideal customers onboard and converting those peripheral are more of a challenge...lots of possiblities here I guess.  Interestign case study though.
