Is This Normal? From 60 Daily Pageviews To 500 Plus In Less Than 5 Days by shrinkpk(m): 12:32pm On Mar 29, 2021 |
I recently came across a blogger template that, after a few days of installing the template, my blogger blog that was recording between 60 and 100 daily Pageviews at its best started recording 500 or more daily Pageviews. Now, my concern is; is that normal? Is it possible the developer encoded the template such that it manipulates and hypes the blog stats? Before you ask how or why that is a concern to me, here are my reasons: First, my blog is about blogger templates reviews and I am privileged to test-running different blogger templates on some demo blogger sites. Most of these templates that I review, I get the premium versions directly from the templates developers for free, review the template and publish my observations on my blog. At a point, there was one template I got from Bloggertheme9. That template actually manipulates blogger stats because I noticed that after installing that template, when I visit the blog to check on it, a single view would record 4 or 5 views in the blog stats. At first, I thought it was an improvement in the template that increased the blog traffic but later when I uninstalled the template and installed another, the blog stats returned to normal. Then, I realised it must have been some scripts or so that caused that increase in traffic because if it was a real traffic, the changes could never have been immediate. Now, another template gives me similar but slightly different result. In about 5 days of installing that template, my blog traffic just jumped to 400 to 500 from about 60 to 100 daily Pageviews. I checked with blogger stats but this template does not seem to tamper with that. Can someone here tell me if this is normal or hyped? My blog: www.templatesreview.xyz The template I installed: iVMega Pro Premium Blogger Template I am open to further questions in as much as you can help so I can decide if I should keep the template or not. |

Tectono:Nothing appears in your signature, am I missing out on something? More so, I review templates. Not blogs. |

shrinkpk:The Blogger traffic analytics is highly inaccurate as it counts visits by bots along with human traffic. To have the real picture about your site's traffic, you have to set up Google Analytics for the site. 2 Likes |

webincomeplus:Did I say it's not the standard? I asked how accurate it is, because as at now, it shows Germany as my highest traffic source. But both Ahrefs and Semrush is showing US, which I find more accurate. |

Also, I noticed some money keywords bringing traffic to your site is hidden in Google Analytics! Why would Google deny a webmaster such crucial data ![]() |

questechie:Analytics is still more accurate than those other tools you mentioned considering that Google has more access to user data than the companies behind those tools. While no tool is perfect, Analytics remains the most accurate. You can't compare a tool that requests access to your site's pages through a code with another that merely analyzes your traffic from outside. Even tools like Ahrefs and SEMrush can't be all that trusted. Each tool works based on estimations that may be right or wrong. 1 Like |

questechie:Google is gradually reducing its emphasis on free info that would turn the user away from its paid solutions. And that's why the GKP won't show you lucrative long tail KWs because they want you to target the competitive keywords through Adwords (paid promotion on SERPs). |

webincomeplus:Thank you. I really appreciate this hints. Meanwhile, I actually had Google analytics setup for the blog but I never considered it a go to place for monitoring the blog's traffic considering the convenience and ease of accessing the stats and managing my blog in one single dashboard. However, I checked Google analytics data and it shows 293 clicks in 30 days data filter. I guess that's a greenlight too considering past performances. Thank you for the hint once again. |

Webincomeplus you're highly rated sir. I have been following you and your website anonymously these year. I ask you for a favour. I'm trying to get Google AdSense on my blog but it hasn't been successful. They keep saying I have not met certain policy. Kindly help me review www.postgraduatenigeria.com Thanks |

shrinkpk:If you want the convenience of the viewing Google Analytics from your dashboard, there's a plugin for that (Google Analytics Dashboard Plugin for WordPress by MonsterInsights). As for the 293 clicks you found, how does that compare to what the Blogger dashboard revealed? |
Re: Is This Normal? From 60 Daily Pageviews To 500 Plus In Less Than 5 Days by webincomeplus(m): 8:49pm On Mar 30, 2021 |
Rhymeyjohn:Is that site on WordPress or Blogger? You're not yet using https in 2021? Set that first before thinking of trying again with Adsense. |

webincomeplus:The blog is on Blogger . |
Re: Is This Normal? From 60 Daily Pageviews To 500 Plus In Less Than 5 Days by shrinkpk(m): 11:46pm On Mar 30, 2021 |
Rhymeyjohn:https on your blog could be part of it but it is not as important as the content to Google. And from what I can see there, the contents on your blog are not good enough. More so, the design is substandard. Many things... |
Re: Is This Normal? From 60 Daily Pageviews To 500 Plus In Less Than 5 Days by webincomeplus(m): 4:08am On Mar 31, 2021 |
shrinkpk:Well, I didn't say the content isn't important. I only said he should start with the https fix. Google throws tantrums over little things at times. The design is not so consequential in my experience. I once had issues with getting Adsense approval on a site of mine. I then had to hire one Pakistani guy on Fiverr. The major change he effected on the site was to change my theme to one ugly-looking, bland theme. He told me to reapply, and gbam! That was it. What I'm trying to say is the beauty of a theme means nothing to Google. A visually appealing theme can be better coded can one with lots of decorative bells and whistles. And the minimalist, dull-looking theme might employ a code and structure that conforms to Adsense's requirements. |

shrinkpk:Oh, my bad! I forgot. I really can't say if Blogger now has provisions for something similar. As of 2013, when I stopped using Blogger, there wasn't any. |

Re: Is This Normal? From 60 Daily Pageviews To 500 Plus In Less Than 5 Days by shrinkpk(m): 1:20pm On Mar 31, 2021 |
webincomeplus:That could be true but clean template and good original contents weigh more. HTTPS or not does not really count for now. I got one approved without https recently. |
Re: Is This Normal? From 60 Daily Pageviews To 500 Plus In Less Than 5 Days by webincomeplus(m): 2:41pm On Mar 31, 2021 |
shrinkpk:Well, there's a difference between visual cleanliness and having clean code. The code is what matters. Google's bot can't perceive aesthetics. I agree with you, though, since most templates that look clean have clean codes powering them. |
Re: Is This Normal? From 60 Daily Pageviews To 500 Plus In Less Than 5 Days by shrinkpk(m): 2:43am On Apr 02, 2021 |
Exactly, by clean template, I mean the source codes. Not just the beautification people fall for. |
Re: Is This Normal? From 60 Daily Pageviews To 500 Plus In Less Than 5 Days by Rhymeyjohn: 4:05pm On Apr 24, 2021 |
webincomeplus: Thanks for the suggestion. I changed to Https but Goggle still refused AdSense. What could be wrong again? |

I have changed my blog URL. It's now Https. I applied to AdSense but it was still rejected. I don't know which of the terms I am breaking. Please help me with your knowledge. Thanks webincomeplus: |
