How to Stop Tracking your own Pageviews in Blogger

Blogger provides a built-in stats monitoring tool that provides you the most comprehensive information about your visitors. It keeps track of your visitors and provides in-depth details about the total number of pageviews, the operating system they are using, the traffic source and etc. Since, it also tracks your pageviews, so it gets difficult to identify how many visitors or page views your site is serving. So, if you are looking to Stop Tracking your own Page views in Blogger Stats then in this article, we will show you How to Stop Tracking your own Pageviews in Blogger?

Why you should Stop Tracking Your own Pageviews?

As a website owner, you might visit your site more often may be 10 to 20 times a day and during the visit you might serve hundreds of pageviews yourself. Since, Blogger keeps track of all visitors it would also include your views in the traffic statistics. For that reason, you will be unable to know the real performance of your site. For instance, your site has 6000 views per day out of which 2000 views are yours, so the real visitors are just 4000. Now you can notice the foremost difference in your real traffic. 

The First thing you need to do is to Login into your Blogger account. After logging in, from the dashboard go to your site >> Stats >> Overview. Now on the right side of your screen, just under the page views statistics select the “Don't track your own pageviews” link and proceed to the next step. 


A new window will pop out asking you whether you want to track your own pageviews or not. Now just check the box next to the “Don't track your own pageviews” and press the save button to finish the whole process. At this instant, Blogger would stop tracking your own views until or unless you clear your browser cookies or tried to access your site with different browsers. 
We hope this tip would help you in getting rid of your views from your site. However, you can also try Google Analytics for tracking because it is the most accurate tracking service. If anyone has a better tip for tracking visitors then, do not hesitate to leave your comment below.

    When I do this, it doesn't seem to make any difference. I save my preference, but then when I go back in, it's still the 'Track my page views' option which is checked, and I'm pretty sure it's still tracking my visits.

    Any ideas?

      Yup .. It is because of the Cookies protection option turned on in your browser settings. To overcome, you go to Cookies > Manage Exceptions settings and add your blog URL to the exception list.
      Sign off and sign in back to your blogger account and your "Track my page viewS" options should have changed.

    This does not work at all. A few weeks back I did an internet search and found that to make this work for Blogger or Anylitics it is more complicated ... and my pageviews are thusly still being tracked.

      Well, this service that blogger provides is not robust and it doesn't provide good results. Try using Google Anaytlics

    I have done 'all of the above' and the only work around for me has been to view my blog via the "View Blog" button on my dashboard or else by going to the "Posts" and clicking on the "View" selection (for each individual post). This has been a work-around (so that I can view my blog without affecting my stats) for me. Until today. If I try to 'manage exceptions' and block my site I am not allowed access to view it. If I 'allow' or 'clear on exit', there is no affect and blogger still counts my stats. Is there any other way to work around this? It all worked fine (my workaround way) until today ....
