So far it appears to be working
Excellent! I’m glad to hear that!
the dashboard for the stats is really, really confusing.
Is there anything that is particularly confusing on that page? Is there something you didn’t expect to see there?
The number of visits listed don’t match what I’m getting from my hosting server.
Differences are indeed to be expected, as each service uses different methods to record, and then calculate traffic on your site. Jetpack, for example, doesn’t include the following in its stats:
- Visits to uploaded documents and files
- Visits from browsers that do not execute javascript or load images
- GoogleBot and other search engine spiders/robots, like Photon
- Visits by users that are logged in
Your host server stats usually include all resources that access your site, including bots.
Any idea when the next stable release will be?
We’re still testing the Beta right now; if everything goes well and if we don’t receive any bug reports from our beta testers, we should be able to release the next version of Jetpack within the next 2 weeks.
