 * Hi!
 * Google Analytics tells me that I had 36 page views yesterday and 18 visitors.
   However, WP statistics tell me I had 290 views and 61 visitors…? The only thing
   that would make sense is that I filtered my own IP address in Google Analytics
   to avoid wrong data. But, how would I be able to visit my web site 250+ times
   on my own…? Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

 * I assume by “WordPress Statistics,” you mean those provided by Jetpack?
 * First of all, please keep in mind that Jetpack stats don’t track the following:
   –
   Visits to uploaded documents and files – Visits from browsers that do not execute
   javascript or load images – GoogleBot and other search engine spiders/robots –
   Visits by users that are logged in
 * I’m not totally familiar with configuring Google Analytics or what it tracks 
   by default, and their support documentation doesn’t go into what they do or do
   not track with regards to the individual web properties that you set up. This
   is what I could find in their documentation: [https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1008080](https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1008080)
 * Thus it would stand to reason that you would see different views/visits in Jetpack’s
   stats than Analytics.
 * There is also an article about Jetpack Stats on their site that might be a good
   read – and how it works together with Analytics:
