Post View counter uncontrolled

Posted in: Newspaper
Post count: 16

Hi, Recently I’ve posted an article and realized that the post views has gone up very fast. I need that this information says the truth. Checking on google analytics the post had 73 views, but the counter went to 560. After another hour the counter had already 626 and I know this is not real.

It’s the second time I realize this behavior in less than one week.

Both posts were inserted on my facebook fan page with a link to the site, but still not that much clicks as Facebook shows the results.

What can I do to avoid this super counting?

I appreciate any help.

Thanks, Rodolfo

Hi,
I’m not sure how analytics will count unique views or not, but our theme counter is just a simple hit count. If you refresh the page, it will increment. You do not have to me a unique visitor to generate a view. We have no reports of this yet and the view counter has been tested to work properly. Please try not to use any plugins or tools that might affect the view counter. Also if you use caching, please use this option: https://forum.tagdiv.com/ajax-view-count/
Also please make sure you do not edit this field as it will override the view count: http://screencast.com/t/zCAXCFO4
Thank you!
