What's up with blogger?

 Is anyone else seeing an inordinate amount of page views? Normally, I have about 100 views and average of six to eight comments. The comment numbers haven't changed but the last view posts have close to 1000 views. When I opened blogger this morning, I saw yesterday's post had about 350 views, and within minutes that number was up to over 400.

I know my blog isn't that popular, so I'm assuming a lot of the traffic is due to bot activity. Just curious, is anyone else seeing similar numbers?

  1. My views have been remaining steady with my averages, although in years past I have had unusual spikes.

  2. Good catch Maebeme, I just looked and my last 2 posts got 377 and 544 visits respectively. I usually average a lot less than that!

  3. Is it possible that AI Bots are scanning your blog for knitting tips? Or at least trying to model language in your voice?

  5. I'm currently getting thousands of views, but it's the same old faithful few who leaves the comments.

  6. I have not noticed, but I have not been posting much. I am doing good if I g4t two per week done and don't usually pay attention to the stats

  7. I noticed it this morning as well. Crazy influx of views. I have been having newer commenters lately - but I think a lot of it is bot stuff.

    1. Also go and look - they went back pretty far with the views. Mine have changed on posts as far back as a couple months! That is just nuts.

  8. I haven't noticed the page views. I should go look at it.

  9. Hmmm, now I need to check that. A couple of years ago I had an influx of views for about two weeks.

    God bless.
