What has happened to my wordpress views ?

0
(0)

I’m not hugely concerned with the number of views I get on my blog, but I keep an eye on them, so I know from day to day roughly how many views I’m getting.

Up until Sunday I was normally averaging between 60 – 120 a day. On Sunday I only got 16 views and since then I’ve been averaging significantly less – about 15. Now as far as I can see my Google page rank hasn’t changed for the terms I rank well on. For example, I’m on page one for ‘Minolta Dynax 5’, ‘Probook 45403 Hackintosh’ and ‘Yashica MG-1 battery’ and as far as I can see those ranking still apply.

Has anyone else experienced dramatic view reduction over the last few days ? I wonder if wordpress.com has had some problems ?

    1. I guess it’s probably just variation as you say. Oddly, my flickr account has gone mad the other way with my views going from their usual 100 odd a day to 300 – 500 a day !

  1. I have been having similar issues with my stats–to the point that I question how accurate stats are on wordpress or flickr (my flickr stats are way off–that or the page views on each photo is off; the numbers don’t jibe). Thank you for teaching me about google ranking…for me and my sites that exercise proved to be…humbling!

  2. One thing I’ve noticed in the few years I’ve been on WordPress is that this time of year is slow — summer is winding down, people are on vacation, kids in many places around here are just starting, or going to start school… it’s a busy time in life, and a slow time in blogging .. August traffic on my sites is always lower …

    1. Ah – thanks John that could be it. It just seems that the google rank hasn’t changed, there are just less people doing searches. That could explain it.

      Unfortunately I don’t have a full years wordpress blog data to go on so I have no historical context

    2. Yes – I’m beginning to think that the flickr numbers are almost randonly generated. I have posted a new picture with one days views and still have a total for that picture greater than the single day !
