  My twitter, facebook etc. followers do not update automatically. How can I get the numbers to update without disconnecting and re-connecting my links?

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

  Hi there. This shouldn’t happen. Try disconnecting completely, i.e. disconnect in both your WordPress.com dashboard, but also in your Facebook, Twitter, etc. settings. Then clear your browser cache and cookies and reconnect again. https://en.support.wordpress.com/publicize/#reconnecting-services

  If it still keeps happening, let us know, but also be aware the stats aren’t real-time, so if you get a new follower on Twitter now, it might be a few hours before the new follow will appear on your WordPress.com stats.
