Our stats are page view stats. https://en.support.wordpress.com/stats/ If I visit your blog and click into 10 posts that will be recorded as 1 visitor and 10 page views. But please do not assume that everyone who clicks a follow, like, share, reblog or comment link actually reads the post on your blog because odds are they may not.
Follow, like, share, reblog or comment clicks are not page views. In fact, follows, likes, shares, comments and reblogs are completely misleading when you are talking about page view stats. That is because your followers and anyone with a WordPress.com/Gravatar account who is logged into WordPress.com can “follow” your blog, “like”, “share” and “reblog” your posts and “comment” in several locations such as the Reader, without ever clicking into your blog and creating a single page view stat. Subscribers control how frequently they receive your posts (instantly, daily, weekly) and can comment without clicking into the blog.
Logged in wordpress.com members can read full posts in the wordpress.COM Reader now, so there is no incentive for them to click into your site.

Thanks for the reply.. i am reffering to the people who are not from wordpress. I had shared the link on my facebook and whatsapp. This is my 6th blog..before this i i was not facing this issue. It seems its not showing me the views of people who are viewing the links which i have shared on other social media platforms. Which wordpress names as refferers.. this is the first time i am having issue with it.

Staff work through all support threads and all support tickets received by email in order of the date stamps. They serve the earliest dated ones first and move forward to the most recent dated ones, as would be expected. There is no means of determining how difficult and complex in each thread or ticket will be so there is no timeline. Please stop creating duplicate threads and wait patiently for them to respond to you here. Know that stats are all a matter of software data collection and display and there is no urgency. You can relax while waiting.

Hi @smitfeels, what browser are you using to view your stats? If you view in another browser do you get different results?
according to me atleast 20 -25 people have read it ill now
Can you let me know how you’re getting that number and how those numbers compare over the past few weeks?
I have also noticed the views numbers going down for the previous blogs as well
Can you include more details on this?
