Is there any easy way I can tell how many people read my blog?
I've got a blog at http://qso365.co.uk, it's a sort of oneaday thing in that I'm going to be doing something every day, I may not actually blog about it every day. The blog isn't the important bit, the activity is.
Is there any way I can tell how many people are reading my blog? It's running Wordpress so are there any plugin things which will give me statistics? It's all very well doing this but if there's no bugger reading it then I may as well just do my daily task and not worry about making the blog pretty. I don't expect a lot of readers but it'd be nice to know.

Not specifically but I searched on 'statistics' and it looks as though Google Analytics might do what I want. I've never used it before but will investigate further.

It's enabled, if anyone could go and have a plonk around the site so I can see if it's picking up any details then I'd appreciate it.

Nothing showing yet but I believe it can take up to 24 hours to register. It's not a site which really needs much actual browsing as all the new posts appear on the main page.
Thanks for looking, I'll see what the analytics show tomorrow.

Good luck with it
Having just finished my OneADay blog, I know how bloody tricky it can get after a while! Amazing how quickly it becomes habit though

Google Analytics is certainly the best tool for the job & it gets better with time. Will tell you all sorts you never knew you wanted to know about your web traffic!!
