Do I affect the view counter on my blog?
-
On blogspot.com I found that each time I logged out and came back to the site that I would increase my view count. It took a second to figure that out but when I did I was disappointed. Does the view counter on WordPress.com work in a similar way. I ask because my latest blog has 11 views in less than 30 minutes. That’s unsual from me. I should also note that I am linked to facebook and nobody has responded to my blog yet.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

if you are logged in then no it doesn’t affect your stats.
If you scroll to the bottom of your site stats (dashboard) it will say: Keep in mind we don’t count your own visits.

noirciplume has told you where to look on your stats page. You can confirm this by using support documentation:The following are not counted:
* Visits from registered users of the blog when they are logged in.
* Visits to uploaded documents and files
* Visits from browsers that do not execute javascript or load images.
* GoogleBot and other search engine spiders.

You say: “I should also note that I am linked to facebook and nobody has responded to my blog yet. “
