Michael Bunning's blog

Though perhaps not surprising.

On Thursday, when I wrote three blog posts, I got three times as many views as I did on Friday, when I wrote no blog posts. The question is though, is that because I wrote three posts, or because in one of them I linked to Twitter and to Ninja Theory?

More surprising, and confusing, is that the stats WordPress provide don’t add up. There’s always a discrepancy between the number of page views, and the total number of times posts have been viewed. For example, WordPress might say that one day I got 30 views in total. That’s fine and good. But then they also provide statistics for each blog post viewed that day. And it never adds up to 30. It usually adds up to about 25. I have no idea why.
