I regularly look at stats for my website both from the webhost and Google Analytics. They don't match up. My webhost stats show I have way more visitors than what Analytics says. That's when I look at the "Audience Overview" in Analytics; when I look at stats for "content" and "all pages", Analytics shows stats closer to what the webhost shows. Also, back when I first writing on HP, when I's check stats for my Hubpage, HP stats showed more visits than Analytics did; however, fairly recently these stats have begun to match up. I only connected Analytics to my website last month, so I was thinking the discrepancy in stats had something to do with Analytics still not reading all visits. Also, never have understood why the "content" readings in Analytics always show more visits, better time on page and bounce rate compared to the "audience overview".

This is a serious suggestion.The stats is a sore point for many hubbers. I say if HP can't fix it then remove it. No use having it if we can't get an update at least daily. The page views haven't moved for one week and in other forum it says that the issue has been resolved.Remove this or fix it so...

So I was looking at my Google analytics account and for one particular long tail keyword it says it sent 40 visits from google to my hubpages account in the last month. Well I only have one hub that in any way shape or form matches that keyword but hub stats say it has only had 16 visits. What am I...

Is there a way within Hub Pages to see which articles are only receiving Hub traffic? I try to beef up the low performing Hubs but it would help to know which Hubs have no outside traffic. Or is the score of the Hub sufficient to monitor the lack of Google traffic?
