Where is my traffic coming from?

5 replies
In my wordpress blog stats it shows 124 visitors yesterday, but when I add up the traffic sources it only adds up to 83.

I am not sure where this traffic is coming from, is this just an error in the blog stats or am I getting mystery traffic.

does this happen to anyone else?

    It probably means that you got 83 unique visitors. I wouldn't worry about it.

    yeh the rest might be just hits not uniques.

    How are you tracking your traffic?

    I suggest having wordpress stats at the same time having google analytics.

    Best to track from 2 or 3 sources to be sure.

    Also adding up the traffic sources amount to 83 out of 124 visitors.. 83 may be your unique visitor count, and 124 is the cumulative visitor count that includes repeat visitors from the same IP/machine.

    A unique IP can "hit" a page multiple times. If i go to your site and then go to again 5 minutes later you will have 2 hits and 1 unique.
