Hello Kristen,
In my opinion that was my biggest mistake to put it on vacation after December 15th, i used to have 10 to 15 sales a day or even 20, after i put it back on, around December 28th, i never had the same views or sales, don't know if everything was because of Christmas, but it went down badly.
But, its just my opinion, if you can keep up with the demand, i would leave it the way it is.
