  Hi, so I have 2 of the same website connected to my wordpress account. (kristascompass.com) and each of them are getting different followers through wordpress. One also has stats (views, visitors and such) and the other one doesn’t. What did I do / what is going on?

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

  kristascompass.com is hosted by Dreamhost, not by wordpress.COM.

  We cannot help with that here at WordPress.COM. That site is not on our servers. You are posting to the wrong support forum. You need to post to wordpress.ORG support.

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, support docs and support forums, and many people get confused about the two.

  The wordpress.ORG login link is here https://login.wordpress.org/ If you do not have an account yet then click Create an account https://login.wordpress.org/register/ and if you have lost an account password click Lost password? https://login.wordpress.org/lostpassword/

  This is wordpress.COM support. We provide support only for wordpress.COM hosted sites. Our support docs do not apply to
  (1) local installs of wordpress.ORG software on your own server or
  (2) wordpress.ORG software installs on paid hosting, and we do not provide support for them at wordpress.COM.

  Also, note that we do not provide Jetpack support https://jetpack.com/support/ for sites linked to wordpress.COM accounts with the Jetpack plugin so they display on the My Sites wordpress.com account page.

  Some Jetpack solutions are here http://jetpack.com/support/

  Others are in the Jetpack support forum at WordPress.org
  http://wordpress.org/support/plugin/jetpack

  However, if help cannot be found at either one then they can file a Jetpack support ticket here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/?jetpack=needs-service

  WordPress.COM and WordPress.ORG are completely separate and have different username accounts, logins, features, run different versions of some themes with the same names, and have separate support documentation and separate support forums. Read the differences here http://en.support.wordpress.com/com-vs-org/

  WordPress.org support docs are at https://codex.wordpress.org/Main_Page

  Then why am I able to sign into WordPress.com, connect to my website, and track my stats?

  I log into wordpress.COM, and the wordpress app and they are the same thing. I go there to check my stats. Yes, I do know that my website is with wordpress.ORG. When I log on the app, or wordpress.COM to check my stats, I have two of the same domain name connected, and both have different wordpress followers.
  I am connected to two http://www.kristascompass.com. It is really confusing to me why there are two, and why there both have different numbers of followers, who are all different people.
