Blogger Stats gone missing!

I check my stats regularly a couple of times a day. Usually when I'm composing posts. This morning, I had over 11,000 page views. About a half hour ago, I checked the stats again and all of my stats have disappeared. My current, past month, weekly, and all time counters have all been reset to zero! I'm very unhappy about this. I checked the Help forums on Blogger and it seems that a lot of people are having this same issue.

I really hope that the stats can be restored somehow because I don't want to start my counts all over again. I took my page view widget off of my blog because I was so disappointed to see it started over and only at 3. Did anyone with a blogger oriented site survive this and not have all their stats erased?

I've had issues with Blogger lately--no problems with my stats (yet, knock on wood!) but my Alexa ranking disappeared from one of my Blogger sites that I've had for over 2.5 years, and my template designer on all 3 of the blogs I have on Blogger has been out of commission for almost a month now. People have been chatting in the Blogger support forums on the template designer, but no word yet on when it will be fixed.
Wish I had something more helpful!

I just lost all my stats on my blog as well, Word of Mouth. Can't figure out why this is happening. It can be a headache for some who have only a small blog and few followers but for others who rely on the stat counter to organize what posts are more popular, well this is going to make a mess of their site! Hope it is only a glitch and the stats can be restored. You would think Google would have them still, just they are not being properly displayed.

Whoops-I lied. I just checked my Blogger on this account, and all my stats are gone from both the blogs I run from here.
Thanks Google. This is REALLY professional of you. I hope Ben is right and it's just a glitch.

Yep, ditto, Just started mine last week and was really disappointed that I lost all mine, thought maybe it was a weekly reset which didn't make since, so did a search and have seen many comments about lost stats, hope it is fixable

The reason why I think it is a glitch and is only a small issue with Blogger not displaying the stats in the browser is that I checked my stats in Google Analytics and Adsense and they are all there like before. Nothing changed there. So the data serving centers are intact and for some reason Blogger is simply not picking up those numbers and displaying them correctly or at all. Hope this give some consolation!?

Yes! This happened to me too. Glad I'm not the only one but I'm still sad.

All my 80,000 or so page views disappeared today and I've been trying everything to find them again. I don't have Adsense because I don't accept any money for my lingerie fashionista and various off-topic blogging but I'm so glad other people are blogging about it. I was afraid to write a post while there were glitches going on. I've read comments on other blogs opining that we won't get the views back. I'm hoping we do. I was kind of proud of my page views.

Same here. I have one blog that has almost reached 200,000 pageviews as well. I also have a newer blog that I have been growing, and I rely on the stats to see what is working. This is so disappointing. I hope they can fix it.

Looks like Ben was right and it was just a glitch. (Thank Goodness!!) That was scary to see the stats gone, but it's a relief that they are back. Hope everyone else's are back up as well.

Oh goodness! I was worried because I lost my 80 or so views when some of you are talking about 200,000! I've only been blogging for a little while, but I've got a ways to go, haha. I hope everyone gets their stats back! Happy blogging!

Ben said...

You are right Melissa! I just checked my stats this morning and all are back on track again. Google does come through this time.
