  I was checking my stats today for my blog and it showed that wordpress had been there. When I clicked on wordpress to see where it would take me, it took me to the freshly pressed page, but I didn’t see my blog there. Usually when I see wordpress there it’s because it picked up on my tags. Why would it be there? I’m just curious and still learning.

  Thanks!

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

  You may have been in Freshly Pressed briefly. Without the exact URL it’s hard to tell.

  The url was http://www.wordpress.com. Is there any way to know if I was on Freshly Pressed? Thanks for your help! Tera

  That URL is generally what you see if someone has clicked to your site from Most Recently Posted etc, so you may have been on Freshly pressed briefly or it could just be someone was on their dashboard and you posted, thus popping up at the bottom of their dashboard, and they clicked through.
