WordPress not including all hits?

  • Unknown's avatar

    So I put my blog ( http://blogginthebombers.wordpress.com/ ) in the sportsblogs.org listings and one of my posts said that it has been read 30 times in the sportsblogs.org listings but when I go to my blog stats it doesn’t show 30 or more hits on that post. Can anyone fill me in?

    WP.com counts stats differently than other stat counters. ALL stat counters work slightly differently, and numbers under one hundred are the ones most subject to variables. What that means is, don’t really worry about the absolute numbers: just look at the trends. Are you getting more hits than yesterday?

    Also, remember that your posts are readable on the main page of your blog, and people who read it that way will be counted as hits on your BLOG, but not necessarily on your POST. Only ones clicking on the post title, the Comments link, or coming directly to that post via search or links will be counted as hits on that particular post.
