Maybe you did not know about BLOGLOVIN' Stealing YOUR Page Views...?
But YES, they do!
When you do read blogs through the Bloglovin' RSS feed reader, you will notice that they do not collect each post but instead are directing you to the blog post in an iFrame for driving more traffic to their own website.
The page view does not register in Google Analytics, nor in the Blogger Statistics Tab!
This way we won't get credit for people reading our blogs...
BUT - CHANGE your settings!
Go to bloglovin.com/settings and click to the right of your profile photo
From the drop down window, select Settings
Scroll down to:
Make sure that you mark I don't want the frame instead of the choice above!
Click Save settings
You're all done!
You may want to share this with your readers as well, we all can help each other, instead of continuing with driving traffic to Bloglovin'!
Thank you for your time.
As of November 8, 2022 I have Removed the widget and also removed my account from Bloglovin' which resulted in immediately much higher page views!
Their widget did no longer work and I had lots of login problems.
Wow! I had no idea. You really are an amazing source of blogger information, Mariette. I have changed my settings.
ReplyDeleteMerci beaucoup ma chère amie,
Cheers, M-T
My home page g+ number count had gone mad, playing yoyo like Polarbear! :-)
ReplyDeleteHello Mariette, Thanks for alerting us to this tip. These internet companies have to be watched like a hawk--at least in this case there is a setting you can change to fix things. Myself, I still use the reader that comes with Blogger, and lately have had few problems with it.

Liebe Mariette,
ReplyDeleteBlogLovin habe ich schon lange rausgeschmissen. Mir wird das zu viel - neben all den anderen Plattformen, die ich schon aus Zeitmangel nicht bedienen kann. Ich sehe da auch keinen Sinn drin, wenn es zu viele Plattformen werden. Auch bei Instagram schaffe ich eigentlich nie, etwas zu posten und genauso bei Pinterest, nur daß ich es verlinkt habe und sehr selten einmal etwas pinne.
Aber für die die das wollen, ist es sicher eine gute Hilfe.
Der automatische Übersetzer erscheint seit einer Weile nicht mehr, siet dieser Graue Balken bezüglich des Datenschutzes ständig oben erscheint. Hast Du eine Ahnung, woran das liegt? Vorher hat er immer automatisch übersetzt.
Liebe Grüße
Sara
