  When I am logged into my account, and I go to View Site, is that considered 1 view?

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

  Only if your site is marked “Private” in your Privacy settings.

  Hi justjennifer

  Thanks a million for the quick reply!

  But just out of curiosity, why is it working that way? I mean why is it considered 1 view only if the site is ‘Private’?

  Only if you happen to know, thanks!

  Mysterious are the ways of WordPress.com stats, but I believe that if you’ve only visited one page (homepage, previewed a post?) that would be one view. Your dashboard visits are not counted regardless.
