Wordpress Stats

Show Wordpress hits

WordPress Stats is a lightweight Google Chrome extension designed to help WordPress.com bloggers monitor their site traffic in real-time. It displays the number of visitors directly on the browser toolbar icon, allowing users to instantly know how many people are visiting their WordPress.com blog without navigating away from their current tab.

The extension connects to the official WordPress stats service via an HTTP request, requiring users to input their full WordPress blog URL and Akismet API key for authentication. Importantly, it prioritizes privacy by storing sensitive data only locally without uploading to external servers. Customizable options include setting counter ranges (daily, weekly, monthly), badge colors, and visual styles to suit user preferences. Regular updates enhance usability, fix bugs, and introduce new features like popup statistics showing top-performing posts. This extension is ideal for bloggers seeking quick access to visitor metrics directly in their browser.
