Friday the Thirteenth
I am not a superstitious person, but what the heck is happening here?
I am well aware that it take time for a new website to get any decent traffic and to be trusted by big G. My site has been live since the beginning of October. But what is happening here is crazy! I'm using Stats Counter to monitor visits to my site and it works really well. Daily visits have varied from 6 to 143 and the unique visits and returning visits have been on the increase.
I was alarmed yesterday when I checked Stats Counter, NO visitors! Today is the same, so I removed the blocking cookies and opened my site to check if everything was working okay. It is, so I have one visitor for today, ME.
The only thing that I have done, outside the norm, was to submit my site to Bing, but I can't imagine that that could have anything to do with these results?
Any thoughts?

Good Morning, Yesterday I posted a new article on the site and sent out e-mails to some of my friends notifying them that there was a new article with a link to that page.
My views were up to 14 yesterday, so it's looks as if stats counter is working OK.
I'll see how the week goes, thanks for your interest.
Cheers, John.
Thanks for the update John. Yeah, let us know how this goes through the week. If there is a problem we'll figure it out.

Take it you have not fallen foul of google ,, I know some people who got sandboxed Have you been Sandboxed?
I am not familiar with Stats Counter but I would not count my chickens without checking with another source first, like Google Analytics. I've found that every tool has it's share of limitations and glitches.
I would also not worry too much as there could easily be a day or days that you have no traffic, even given the Stat Counter history you've known.
Have you checked any other sources?
ROCK ON!
