Stats are not updating

  • Hi,
    I know, there have been problems with the statistics for some users and looks like, I am now one of these people, too.

    I can’t exactly tell for how long my stats are not updating properly, but I first noticed it yesterday, when a new post came online and got some like and the blog itself got some subscribers – yet the stats show 0 visits.

    Can anybody help?

    Cheers!

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

  • Please do not assume that everyone who clicks a like button or a share button actually reads the post on your blog because odds are they may not. Also note that those who follow your blog in the Reader or by email don’t have to click into the blog unless they wish to.

    Likes and shares and comments and reblogs and follows are not page views. In fact, likes, shares, comments and reblogs are completely misleading when you are talking about page view stats. Your followers and anyone with a WordPress.com/Gravatar account who is logged into WordPress.com can “follow” your blog, “like”, “share” and “reblog” your posts in several locations such as the Reader, without ever clicking into your blog and creating a single page view stat.

    Logged in visitors using a mobile can read the full post without creating a page view stat. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/wordpresscom-reader-show-full-text?replies=31#post-1373606

    You can control the length of the entry sent out on your RSS feed here > Settings > Reading. Choose the “summary” setting for your RSS feed rather than to “full text”. That will compel followers who are not using mobiles to click into the blog to read the full post which will create a page view stat.

    Our stats are not real time stats. For details see here http://en.support.wordpress.com/stats/ and note the views and viewers take hours to update.
