  Hi.

  I checked my site stats today and saw that under the “Clicks” section, some random wordpress blog (http://newhouseproject.wordpress.com/2009/03/24/perfect-dress-for-a-birthday-girl/) was listed. This has never happened before, but then my blog is only like a 3 weeks old. How did it get there? I know I didn’t put it there and I’ve always had all comments turned off. Is it something to be worried about? Is my account secure?

  Thanks. This is my first post. Pardon any mistakes.

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

  Is it your clicks section or your referrors section? If it is clicks and you don’t have any links to that particular post then I’m not sure what is happening. If it is a referror, then someone has posted a link to your site on theres.

  It could be under Related Links, which WP.com adds to the bottom of your posts unless you disable it (under Appearance->Extras).

  @ bobdavcav – no it was under clicks sections.
  @ raincoaster – thanks. i read about that feature, and sounds like that’s what it was.
