Why did my site stats suddenly spike?
-
My views all of a sudden spiked. Can I count on the number to be correct? I had a couple of days where the numbers were unusually high.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

We provide support only for blogs hosted by WordPress.COM and that site is not one of them. You are posting to the wrong support forum.
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/
If you need help with a WordPress.ORG software install in the future and don’t have a username account at WordPress.ORG click http://wordpress.org/support/ and register one on the top right hand corner of the page that opens, so you can post to the support forums there.

Hi there!
Mine have generally been pretty consistent over time but then I’ll have days when there’s a spike as well. Usually I can see that it’s related to a recent post that might have gotten some interest or that people are using specific search terms to find my site.Not sure if either of those apply for you since I’m not looking at your stats page but yes, the stats definitely seems accurate for me. Hope that helps!

Did you actually read what I posted above? sherylmbaker has a WordPress.ORG software install that is not hosted here. She is posting to the wrong support forum. -
@timethief
I started writing mine before yours was posted so I didn’t see it until after. Thanks! -
Hi again,
Before posting into a thread I always check out the URL and make sure the site is hosted by WordPress.COM. That saves the blogger who posted from wasting their time by not getting redirected to the correct support forum, and/or from becoming confused by conflicting responses. You’re welcome. -
