  I would be interested to know how on a single post, I could get 115 views from only 2 visitors. The views were on the 11 Feb 2020 and appear to be Home page and archive

  Thanks

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

  Hi there,

  Those views are not on a single post – they’re on the page where all your posts are displayed one underneath the other.

  Home page and archive views refer to your site’s front page at https://tonyhuby.com/, and any archive page for a category, tag or author, or search results. On any of those pages, as one scrolls new posts load automatically when you reach the bottom, and each additional load like that counts as a pageview.

  You have over 900 posts published on your site, so if someone opened your site at http://tonyhuby.com/ and just kept scrolling down, reading posts as they went, you could easily see that many views from a single visit.
