I believe that views count image loads, and visitors does not; it only counts people who go to your blog. That would account for it.

Hello. In the last two days I have had a massive surge in page views up to 500 a day but only 31 visitors. To me this doesn't make sense! They are all from America and mostly via yahoo image search on one particular blog post. Any help would be much appreciated as it seems odd. Thanks

Is this something I should be concerned about?

Not really - no threat to your blog - maybe one or two visitors will look around and subscribe

I am from SaminaCooks and normally I get around 80-120 views per day. Today, I have 416 views. Of them, 374 views are from Singapore from Yahoo Image Search for one recipes: Zesty Ranch Chicken. Is this something I should be concerned about?

Thanks for sharing your experience. It was a strange thing. I had not posted anything new in a few days when it all of a sudden spiked. My stats have now returned to normal.

The first time my stats went throught the roof, I also scrathced my head and looked at the details. I usually received 300-400 hits a day, but suddenly I was approaching 2,000. I also got a lot from Yahoo Image search and obscure websites. I then looked them up and they were all valid and working websites, simply re-blogging or linking to my blog.

I am now a regular top blog on certain F1-related sites and if I write about, for instance, the Williams team, then suddenly I get hundreds of hits from Williams fan sites and such. It´s pretty cool

I guess it's just a good day. Seems strange, though, that there would be that many searches with those terms. Thank you for your help.

Hm, they're definitely valid views. Yahoo does do regional results and tailor search results to user habits, so you may not see the same results as other.

I just tried it but found nothing from my blog in the first 30 pages of results.

If they're coming from Yahoo Image search, then they're definitely valid.

Have you tried a Yahoo Image search for "feast of dedication"?

My blog, Interrupting the Silence, averages 250-300 views per day. Today, however it is already at 676. That's nice but suspicious. 620 of those are from search engines with 544 coming from Yahoo Image Search. The search terms shows 544 for "feast of dedication." I googled these terms but my blog was not returned in the first several pages of results. Any explanation? Do I need to be concerned about this other than possibly inaccurate stats? Thank you for your help. Mike
