  In the blog stats, what’s the difference between referrers and incoming links. I though, if someone links to my blog, it will show under the links.

  Not if it’s in a comments section or otherwise formatted as “no follow”.

  It’s not in the comment’s section.
  What is “no follow” ?
  Thanks

  It’s a technical way of constructing links so that they don’t count on Technorati or as Referrers. Pretty much all links put in comments sections are automatically no-followed as a deterrent to spammers.
