  No problem, but a question. If one person visits a wordpress blog home page and then clicks on the links for 19 earlier posts from that home page, does the wordpress stats counter record that as 20 visits to your site?

  A view is only counted for a post or page when the permalink URL is visited. For example, if a visitor reads a post titled “Hello World” while viewing the home page of your blog, the view will not be counted towards the post, only towards total views.
