  I’m trying to find out more about who my subscribers are. When I view my blog’s homepage I see that I have 17 subscribers following by email however when I go to my dashboard to view “Site Stats” the list that shows my followers only lists 7 WordPress subscribers and shows 0 Email subscribers. Do I assume the 10 subscribers are by email? Can I not view information about these subscribers?

  Thanks.

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

  Thanks, Timethief but I’ve been looking at those pages and as I explained, it still says I only have 7 wordpress subscribers and 0 email subscribers. I understand where to look to view my Subscriber Stats but I still don’t know why my site says I have 17 subscribers yet I can’t see information about the 10 unaccounted for.
  Anyone have an answer?

  The widget will display the total number of followers, which is the sum of:

  1: WordPress.com users following your blog
  2: Any followers from connected Publicize services (Facebook and Twitter)
