Why does my sites stats page reflect my own page views when I am logged in?
-
As I navigate through my pages and posts, the stats page changes, reflecting the pages and posts I’ve looked at myself. This makes it difficult to determine on a day to day basis what pages and posts are getting traffic that isn’t me without having to remember or write down which pages and posts I’ve been to and subtracting that from the totals shown on the stats page.
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Thanks for the response and for the help. I am logged in and every time I visit one of my own pages the “visit”/view is logged on my stats. Photos are here:

Photo 1 shows my stats after I logged in (no visitors or views for 12/5/15). Photo 2 shows my stats one minute later after I went to a couple of my pages (1 visitor, 2 views). I have two other blogs with WordPress where this doesn’t happen.
The blog in question has only been published for about a week (all the views you see in the photos are me). The problem is going to be when I get visitors and won’t be able to tell my legitimate stats if my own “visits” are included in the totals.
