    Hi @morokor,

    No, there’s no way to see statistics for the homepage.

    If you’re wondering why, WPP doesn’t keep track of the homepage mainly for two reasons:

    1. Common sense: the homepage is the single most viewed page for most websites out there. Your homepage would always appear at the top of the popular posts list which IMO wouldn’t make a lot of sense: why would your visitors be interested in knowing that your homepage is your top page?
    2. Performance: tracking visits to the homepage in addition to tracking your posts and pages would likely cause performance issues if no additional measures are taken to make sure that doesn’t happen (like the ones suggested here for example). As I pointed out before, the homepage is normally the most viewed page and so tracking its visits will likely put an additional load on your server.
