  For the past couple of weeks, I was getting a fair amount of views and clicks. Today, I seemed to have dropped off the face of the Earth. Is it possible somebody is interfering with my blog?

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

  Your blog is working and your blog feed is valid.
  Your blog is indexed by Google (141 results).
  Your blog is indexed by Bing (3 results).
  Your most recent post dated March 30, 2011 is appearing in Google’s index > http://tinyurl.com/4kl2a9q

  Those using search engines expect search engines to deliver the most fresh and original content in the SERPs and that’s what the search engines aim to deliver. The nature of your posts may be problematic. They do not contain any original content. All they contain is a link to media articles that have already been indexed by Google on the original sites they were published on. This could cause Google to drop your posts into the supplementary index and not return the results in SERPs (search engine page results) because they have been previously indexed on their original site of publication.

  I am still being interfered with on my blog. http://www.clearpolitics.wordpress.com The stats show different scalar readings for April 1. There have been two .php files in my reference URLs for the past couple of days; that’s when this interference started happening. I think I am being hacked.

  No your blog has not been hacked. Staff pulled an April Fool’s joke with stats that backfired. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/whats-up-with-my-views?replies=29
