Site stats
-
In the last week, I’ve noticed that WordPress has started counting MY views of my own site in the stat tracker. Has something changed?
Does anyone know how to resolve this so that my view are excluded? They used to be!The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Does Site Stats include my own visits to my blog?
Only for private blogs. For users with private blogs, your Site Stats page will show any visits that you have made to your own blog, as well the visits of other users who have access to your blog. -
Your visits to your private blog are now being tracked as you have noticed. I’m sorry but there is currently no way provided to opt out of this function.
Private blogs, which can be viewed only by users chosen by the administrator, now track the page views of all of their users. Traditionally we have omitted the views attributed to a blog’s own users because stats were meant to reflect the activity of the general public. However, this meant that private blogs had no useful stats reports. This change will be especially useful for private blogs that have many users. http://en.blog.wordpress.com/2011/08/18/watch-your-traffic-grow-with-sparklines/
