STATS PAGE not up to date

  • Unknown's avatar

    Hello everyone. Young and unexperimented blogger here. Please be nice.

    It seems that my visitors or some of them are not counted in my stats page. To be sure I made a test with a friend. He visited my blog and never appeared in my stat page. Why is that? And also, less important, at certain times of the day, views appear but no visitors. Like this visitors: 0 views: 2. And then later it get’s normal. Visitors: 1 views: 2.
    Also, I have friends who follow my blog trough RSS feed. When I check the magnifying glass in my stat page, I have no syndicated views…What is going on?

    Am I missing something? Is there some kind of secret code to read the mysteries of WordPress.com stats?

    Thanks a lot for your help,

    Thierry

    WordPress.com subscribers, including all followers from social media sites if you use the Publicize app are found here
    http://wordpress.com/my-stats/?blog_subscribers

    Email followers are found here http://wordpress.com/my-stats/?blog_subscribers&type=email

    Be aware that our stats are not real time stats. For details see here http://en.support.wordpress.com/stats/ Note the views and viewers take hours to update.

    Also note that likes, follows, shares and reblogs are not page views. In fact, likes, shares and reblogs are completely misleading when you are talking about page view stats. Those with WordPress.com/Gravatar accounts who follow your blog in the Reader or by email don’t have to click into the blog unless they wish to. Your followers and anyone with a WordPress.com/Gravatar blog account who is logged into WordPress.com can “like”, “share” and “reblog” your posts in several locations such as the Reader, without ever clicking into your blog and creating a single page view stat.

    Visitors using a mobile can read the full post without creating a page view stat. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/wordpresscom-reader-show-full-text?replies=31#post-1373606

    Dear Timethief,
    thank you for your help. I read everything.
    In the end, I do think my stats are not being recorded correctly.
    Therefore, I typed modlook in the “add tags” bar.

    I will be patient while waiting.

    Thanks again
    Thierry

    Everything looks okay for your blog’s stats. Some days you get a couple of visitors, other days you don’t.

    You should definitely keep at it, posting new content and making sure to use just a handful of Tags and Categories in each post (no more than 15 total) to get your post to show up in popular areas within the WordPress Reader.
