How to fix Stats?
-
My Site Stats are staying constantly at 0 despite having likes and subscriptions.
I’ve seen some information regarding changing a footer.php file but I have no idea what that is, how to access it, or what to do with it.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have tried and checked all or your tips and none have worked.
My stats are remaining at 2 views all time with 0 today, even though I just received hits today through likes. And I have most certainly received more than 2 views all time.
So, the problem is still persistent.

Your stats aren’t at 0. You had 3 visits yesterday, and 2 today.
http://wordpress.com/my-stats/
You just started your blog yesterday, so stick with it, and the views will come.
Keep in mind that folks can Like your posts through the WordPress.com Reader without visiting your blog.

You are incorrect, I started my blog almost a week ago. But, that is beside the point.
Also, I have a total of 5 “Likes” across my two separate posts. And one follower.
Is it just that the servers take an exceptionally long time to register views?
Although, that wouldn’t make much sense because my other blog received the statistics what seemed like almost instantaneously.

I did read your comment about the Reader, I was just stating the obvious for more information, by the way.

Followers can read your posts in many places and even click “like” buttons without ever entering the blog and creating a page view stat. Those who have username accounts only but no blog can become followers and click the “like” button.
There are several different ways that readers can start following your blog.
http://en.support.wordpress.com/following/
http://en.support.wordpress.com/followers/Your blog followers is the sum of the following:
WordPress.com blog followers
Any followers from connected Publicize services (Facebook, Twitter, Messenger Connect, Yahoo!, or LinkedIn), which you can check in Settings -> SharingGo to your site stats page and click Totals, Followers & Shares
http://en.support.wordpress.com/stats/#totals-followers-sharesClick the Blog link under the number and the Site Stats » My Followers page will open. Click the Email Followers link.
As I said above a follower or anyone with a WordPress.com username account can click the “like” button without visiting your blog and creating a page view stat.
A follower can click the “like” button when viewing your posts in the Readomatic reader on the home page of WordPress.com
A follower can click the “like” button when viewing your posts on the Topics pages.
A follower can click the “like” button when viewing your posts when using an app.
An email subscriber can click the “like” button in the email they receive of your new posts without visiting your blog.P.S. To compel readers to click into my blog to read the full post I have set my RSS Feed to “summary” on this page > Settings > Reading

Fair enough, but your first recorded view was yesterday.
Also, I have a total of 5 “Likes” across my two separate posts. And one follower.
As mentioned, “folks can Like your posts through the WordPress.com Reader without visiting your blog.”

Ah, that explains more. It would appear that I am just being ignorant as to the workings of WordPress.
Thank you both for your help. I’ll just do more research and use more patience.
Cheers!
