You may remember Feed Stats: the beloved feature that we retired last Spring. Well, Donncha came up with something even cooler: a way to track syndicated views on each post.
By “syndicated views” we mean the number of times somebody viewed your post via a feed. We’ll call views taking place on your blog “on-site views”.
We have been collecting data for several weeks and it’s time to show it. Here we have the first manifestation of Syndicated Views, which appears on the graph for each post. It reminds me of frosting on a cake:

Yum! We’re working on more ways to show this new data so keep your eyes peeled.
This looks to be very cool. Thanks!
Awesome… rock on WP.
where can I find it in the dashboard?
Nice!
Wunderbar! I was always sad to lose the feed stats, and am very glad to see this new feature :). When/how will we be able to use it?
PS any plans to count unique, returning visitors as well as page views?
Dave On Fire, we’re bringing back those things bit by bit, and some more stuff you haven’t imagined yet. 🙂
CoOl!!!
Brilliant. Thanks.
Wicked idea! This is so cool! 🙂
Lol. Great feature!!
Awesome! Thanks for doing this, I always wondered how many I got with RSS. I’m a young WordPress user so I’ve never used it.
my stats are back ?? thats awesome !
tx guys and keep it on !
This is a great feature. Although I’d really like it if there was an easy way to just view the raw numbers. I mean, what if your syndicated hits are lower than your site hits?
Hey, that IS cool.
Ok. Now what do I do with this info or make the syndicated feeds more prominent?
wow matts this is great,now actualy i cn know how many people hv visited ma each post,kisssssssss to all u team guys and gals to ofcourse:)
You say feed stats, I say Thank you very much!
Seems like you folks are working on these stats quite a bit, right? 🙂
wonderful feature, nice. i am expecting more features.
Cool! Ty Donncha n’ WP! 😀
Thats awesome!!!!!

I Heart WordPress. ❤
it is cool
It’s not ready yet? You’re just teasing us?
Want now! 🙂
cooooool !!!! will look for some more features here… :with feed stats..
That’s pretty cool! Just tried it out.
Thank you 🙂
Very nice addition, Thank you
What’s the use of this feature? Just to make our heads bigger, hey! LOL, anywyas, features that can’t be even thought of by a laymen, you guys already incorporate them to the wordpress application….. Kudos!
I was really hoping that this idea would return. Feedburner hasn’t tracked anything for me in the two months I had it. -_-
Thanks a bunch, WP!
You guys rock. Keep the good stuff coming.
It is no wonder I vote for you on the Crunchies daily.
Luke
Will this be available with wordpress.com stats plugin users as well on just blogs on wordpress.com?
Trent
Have I told you lately that I love you?
Trent, no plans for it currently on the stats plugin, but because of the way it works now it’s definitely something we could do in the future.
hey, thats really wonderfull,i had always wanted something like this
Perfect! I love this feature.
Wait… how do I read this? Does it mean that you have more feed readers than onsite readers, or do you only count the “margin?” I mean, was your top feed stat closer to 3100 hits or closer to 300?
raincoaster, it’s a stacked graph. So in the picture above there’s way more on-site readers than feed readers.
That’s cool! Keep writing everyone.
Thanks guys! (yet once more) 🙂
Great , just what i expecting for…
many thanks Andy
Oh lord! I think I’m gonna have an organism! You guys rule! Thank You X 100. I’m going to roll around in my frosting as soon as I see it the first time!
Thank yo so much for doing this…I missed feed stats so much when you took them away. This is great. Even better actually.
Wow! That would be a neat addition to blog stats.
Wow! It’s great!
What about simple bars, or the option to have it display as simple bars?
I like this! I don’t see how to access this yet on my site!
I love feed stats. Very sexy.
Fantastic!!! I was surprised when that feature was discontinued.
Yay! Thank you so much…I’ve really missed it.
I knew there was a reason I voted for you guys!
wow, nice, brilliant. Waiting for more, now.
That is useful. I like it.
Yay! That’s great! 😀
Kool let me try
Let’s look how it works:)
I was very sorry to see feed stats go I would like to see that come back.
Nice, good job.
One of the best news i’ve heard recently. I’m really happy to have feed stats back.
¡Enhorabuena, chicos!
Maybe you show syndicated and on-site views one above the other. The sum will make small blogs like mine look a little more impressive – at least to me 🙂
Super 🙂
Is this cool? I think this is cool…
What I love about you guys is that you make it all so easy for small fries like me!
Ich blogge auf deutsch. I blog in German.
Looks promising.I had wondered if feed stats would return in one form or another. Ta for the preview.
Wow, really cool! It’s great to have this feature back: it provides a much more informative view on the actual reach of one’s posts. It would be simply perfect if syndicated views could be also aggregated for the whole blog. I hope you consider this as a future extension. In the mean time, thank you for this new improvement!
Cool, Just what i wanted.
Any way could you like add bookmark it buttons to the end of each post on each blog as a little extra?
Nice!
Thank you!
Good idea!
I take it that it’s not active yet, though?
o for awesome !
Wow! That’s cool, thanks! :]
Now that’s nifty! 🙂
T- xx
Yessss, I wants it!
Just what I’ve been looking forward to … Thanks!
Nice !
Always helping with new features !
Thanks so much.
You guys at WordPress are awesome. Always willing to give better stuff. Thank you so much. Yes, we are opening our eyes. Looking forward for this feature.
I guess this feature is icing on the wonderful wordpress cake!
😀 Thanks! Keep up the great work!
BEST news –BEST feature I’ve seen since Feed Stats vanished. I don’t even care that the legend is positioned over long headlines. Brilliant, Donncha. Thanks to all involved. Well done. So good, guess I’ll stay, now. (–Left-overs from August melt-down still makes blogging difficult.)
Excellent resource!
Thanks WP =)
This is cool. Thanks guys, it would be cool to integrate Feedburner into these stats too.
Yay! How exciting! I was just thinking about how it would be great to be able to see if anyone was using the feed to view my posts. Hurray!
Is the syndicated line just layered on top of the onsite ones? Or is it actually larger?
In other words, which is bigger in this example, on-site or syndicated.
It’s not clear.
cool features 😉
thanks andy
Wow..Cool,
Thanks Matt
Cool. I was really sad when you dropped feedstats. This sounds really promising. Can’t wait to see it in action.
I was waiting for this moment
So, what’s the graph saying? Is it that the vast majority of vists were on-site OR that on-site and syndicated were more or less 50-50 with a slight advantage to syndicated?
Tom
Ooh, very cool! 😀
Awesome.
I’m glad that wordpress is constantly adding great new features.
I think that the figure you show is a bit confusing; is the number of syndicated views represented only by the thin strip of light blue shading (so that to get the actual number of syndicated views you have to subtract the on-site views from the total views for any date), or is the number of syndicated views greater than the number of on-site views, but follows a similar distribution?
Hey guys, this isn’t showing up in my stats yet… do I need to do something different to access this feature?
Can I sign up to beta test it? Please! I can’t wait 🙂
Cool!
Thanks for re-introducing this feature! I’ve got many feed subscribers and was really delighted to find out how many read my post via a feed.
Wow you guys rock. I love WordPress!
Thank you. Feed Stats was one reason I had to start using Feedburner. A few questions though:
1. At this point of time, it seems that they are available only for individual posts. Do you intend to make blog wide stats available?
2. I really doubt this, but do you track if people view the blog from the feedburner feed?
3. Do you intend to support Blogger-like feed redirection (to feedburner say) anytime soon?
1. Yes.
2. If Feedburner leaves our pixel in, yes.
3. No.
Now that is a stat I would really appreciate having for the blog. Much more realistic than plain feed subscriptions.
that is really cool. i know that helps me a lot. thanks!
Sounds great!
Frosting indeed!
The information looks yummy!
and this is good because…
never mind, it’s just that it is of no use to me, I’m afraid 😦
