Blog Stats Not Updating

I wish I did (I know, I know!). My stats haven’t moved since about 11pm last night. With the server outages I have no way of knowing how many legitimate hits I missed and how many I’d be down as a result of the outages. Very annoying, hope it gets fixed soon.

Say what? You don’t have a sitemeter for insurance and comparison purposes. Nah … say it isn’t true.

I’m just going to take my best day of last week and assume it was that good today. So there. I’ll get sitemeter eventually.

Now, to see if I can post…not posting definitely isn’t good for hits.

i’m not that impressed with site meter. wordpress usually reports higher. is that the case for anyone else?

It’s the case for me, Styleit.

Hmmm — “delete” not offered. Sorry.

Knowledge of a variety of ways of looking at numbers is a good thing for a blogger to develop. There are different objects, means and ways of counting and accounting for readership activity, as well as, administrative activity. I like the fact that all of the wordpress statistics and the sitemeter reports that I have before me have been collected and presented free of charge for me to fret over, or *not*.

WordPress reported 586 hits for me yesterday. Without being egotistical, I can say for a fact that this is vastly underreporting the true number. It is always good to have a backup, as I am learning at my cost.

Sorry folks, six hours of stats data remains unrecoverable.

Many thanks for the fixes. Since I’m keeping my little spreadsheet to compute 7-day averages, I just removed yesterday from the on-going calculations… And a few months from now, who will care?

It would appear that I am having the same problem today that I had yesterday when the six hours of stats went missing. WordPress is showing about 50 less page views now than my other stat counters (and I rely of wordpress mainly for its ease of use). Is anyone else still having an issue today?

faith2hope2love: no, my stats seems normal today.

Mine are down about 40%, although that could well be because it’s Friday. Some weirdness is going on though; I’ve had 17 clickthroughs from a site that I normally get 4 a month from, etc. Hard to say at this point if it’s a WordPress thing or a weird Friday thing.

My stats are down again today. I go from 518 to 251. Riiiiiiiiight.

I thought something strange was going on. Glad that I happened to run across this thread. For the past 2-3 days, my WP stats have dropped to about/at least one-half of the usual number of visitors. Not happy about this situation!
