Different Page Views Report by Blogger Stats and Google Analytics

Blogspot has inbuilt traffic analytics tool called Blogger Stats which helps users to check and analyze the daily traffic to their blogs. It shows leading blog posts which attract more traffic with the most successful traffic generating keywords. Though blogger Stats cannot match with Google analytics, it is enough for an average user to analyze the daily traffic to his blog. With the help of the necessary details supplied by this tool (major traffic sources and keywords which bring traffic), the user can optimize his blog. This tutorial explains how to use this feature to fetch visitor details and the difference between visitor count shows by this feature and Google analytics.


How to Access Blogger Stats
  1. It is not hard to access blogger stats. When you log in to your Blogspot account, you will see the summary of traffic to your blog provided by it. Look at the image below to understand it more.

Blogger Stats and Google Analytics Shows Different Traffic Count

It is one of the most confusing questions faced by most of the newbie bloggers who don't understand the working of these two tools. Blogger Stats always shows more traffic than Google Analytics and it is enough for a normal user to get confused. Which one shows the right visitor count? It is the Google Analytics which is more accurate because it does not count visits by bots. There are so many bots crawl our websites every day like Google bots, MSN bots etc. Google Analytics is smart enough to identify these bots by checking their behavior and exclude them from page views report. So Google analytics shows less number of page impression. It always lists the real visits compared to the traffic chart created by Blogger Stats. Here you can see the major differences between these two tools. It is not just a table of differences between these two tools but a list of important features too. Both tools work in different ways and it influences their results too.

Open Stats In Blogger Classic Templates

Still, some users use a classic template for their blog because of their own reasons. If you belong to one of those, you can open blogger stats after enabling this feature by following the steps below.

  1. Login

    Now on the dashboard, you can see the following menu.
    website page views check for free

    After enabling the blogger stats, you will see an additional tab. Now let us check how to enable this feature in the classic template.

  2. Enable Stats

    To enable it, click on Blogger in Draft under Tools and Resources
    Enable blogspot counter

    After this, you can see one more tab in top tabs - Stats.

  3. Click Stats link to start blogger start.
    How to check blogspot page views counter with details

Though this built-in tool is very much helpful to analyze a blog's performance, I still recommend using Google Analytics. It is because Google analytics is feature rich compared to other tools. However, if you do not want to add any scripts to your blog, former is enough. However, major advertising companies count the page views reported by Google analytics only. They do not count the page views report generated by blog post. Even if you check your AdSense report page, the page impressions listed in the report matches with Google analytics.

This tutorial teaches you how to find the login IP address of your modem, router, Access Point etc. The given procedure is the same for every model irrespective of the manufacturer.


Steps to discover Log-in IP address of your Router


  1. Connect the Device to Computer

    You need to connect the device to the computer using an Ethernet cable. LAN port of the Router/Modem/Access Point should be connected to the LAN Port of your computer. Power on the devices.

      Open Command prompt in any directory
    • Or press [Windows] and [R] buttons together and type cmd on Run Window.
      Press [Enter] button.

  3. Check the Default IP Address

    After pressing enter key, you can see the default IP address on your command prompt window. This IP address is the Login IP set on the device connected to your computer.
To log in to the configuration page of your Modem or Router or Access Point, you may type the IP address on the address bar of your browser and press enter key.

Rarely in some modem models, instead of admin, the default password is password. So I suggest you to try password on the password field if the admin is not working. So the username and password combination is admin and password.
