WordPress.com November Wrap Up and One Troubling Stat

By Mark Penix | Comments (2) | Trackbacks (0) | Popularity: 26% [?] | Share This

WordPress.com has posted some interesting stats at WordPress.com.

I find one stat pretty troubling…

“416 million pageviews on WordPress.com, and another 169 million on self-hosted blogs. (585 million pageviews total.)”

Not the 416 million, but the 169 of “self-hosted blogs“… just how do they track this? If it’s through some sort of reporting tool within the WP software once installed, then that is, personally, scary to me. Just something to keep in mind.

It’s probably from the wordpress.com stats plugin.
