  Excuse me if this question has already been asked, but: In my stats, I keep getting a link listed under referrers that is someone’s Facebook profile (not my own). I’ve looked up and down their page, but they don’t have a single link to my blog on it. Anyone know why this person’s page is showing up as a referral?

  They could of shared the article through their inbox or they could of shared the content then removed it.

  Look on their Links page. Facebook stats, though, are notoriously buggy. Yes, you got a hit from FB, but it could well have been in chat or anywhere.
