I made a post back in September when I started my blog. I have been at it now for about 3 months. I keep receiving comments about that one blog post and nothing else. I have had over 50 now and all tied to this particular post. Problem is that these comments are not reflected in “views” to my blog in the Jetpack stats. One day I had over 5 comments about this post yet the jetpack page showed no visits or views. So what is happening here? I don’t know what is going on. How are they getting access to this post without visiting the blog?

Thanks

Spammers, may be that’s why JetPack doesn’t show stats.

Consider using Google Analytics instead. It shows a more detailed view of the visits your site receives.

Again, I received 6 comments today, 03 Dec 16, tied to one blog post. My site is called Shakeyjay Blogging at Shakeyjay.ca. The blog post I am referring to is called: “Home is Where the Heart Is I Guess” made in September. I have received over 50 comments tied to that post alone. Yet when I go to JetPack stats it shows no visits whatsoever. Same with Google Analytics. So my questions are: how are visitors finding my blog and this particular post without the analytic stats app identifying them. Why can’t they see other posts? Or can they? Am I being scammed and how can I address this? The comments seem legit and are complimentary of the post. What gives here?

Thanks so much in advance for any assistance here.
