BM has a blog that she writes..... Awhile back she gave me the link so every now and again I read it. Yesterday she posted an entry that I read then last night she rung up and ask what I was doing still reading her blog..... Although I denied it she said well I am the only one in our town that knows she has a blog so I must be me....... My question is how much info can you get from analytics. Also can I block the infomation she may recieve????

She gave the link to me when BF3 and I start going out and we were all getting along. Now that we have gone to court to seek increased access with SS now he isn't being breast feedhe is 15 months old she thinks we are the enemy ( we tried to work it out without court but every thing has to be her way). If possible can you PM me that link Smile I read the blog as she discusses stuff that is going on with SS and her, the other children and the other BF's. Currently she is threating to move her blog! Although not knowing stuff is a good thing sometimes.

Tell her to lock the blog so no one can read it. Also she can put a tracker on it so she knows a lot about the people reading it.

She has put a tracker on it thats how she know some one is reading it from our home town. She wants people to read her blog to justify her that she is the worlds best mum :sick: and we are EVIL!!!!!

I would tell her that it's a public blog and therefore anyone can read it..if she prefer people not to read it ..than make it private.

is what i would ask her. does she? if she did then she would make it private. I think she is just trying to use it to embarrass you, like she knows you care about what she does because you are checking up on her, and she wanted to call to let you know she knows. I dont know anything about analytics, but i have come to know a thing or two about nut jobs, and it seems like just something to get to you. I would keep reading it though just to see what she has to say, and if she ever said anything i would say if you have a problem dont make it accessible to me, other wise why wouldnt i check up on someone who is trying to create issues in my life?

Some blogs have better analytics than others. Depending on the blog software that she uses, she will either get a general idea of who is reading her blog by seeing how many people in each city read her blog, or she will get IP addresses.

If I were you, I would say that I still read it because you gave me the link to read it. I didn't think it was that big of a deal. If you don't want me to read it, that's fine...but you should know that since it is publicly available, a lot of people that you may not want to read it might be reading it.

Depending on the blog software, she might not be able to make it private. That may be why she's "threatening" to change where she hosts her blog. If she wants to do that, that's her perogative. Like you said, sometimes it's better to not have all the information.
