  If someone views my blog in Google Reader, but doesn’t actually click on the link from Google Reader to view my blog, does that show up as a view in my stats? Will it show Google Reader as a referrer, or will it only do that if the person actually clicks on the link to view the blog, versus just viewing it in the Reader?

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Hi. I found this post, as well as some others and yes, it shows on your stats but it will be considered as a “syndicated view” as opposed to an “on-side” view, and only when you check the individual stats for a post or a page. Details here:
