I had someone in Brazil try 12 times to enter my TW. I'm finding this disturbing (FYI, I've never shared my site with anyone). I don't think people are successful in visiting my content, but the number of visits is uncomfortable. I must have a Tiddlyspot sub-domain name that is easy to mixup with others or something along those lines so I've moved it to another sub-domain. Hopefully that helps me feel better.
FYI, I either don't understand things appropriately because of my weak technical language, or my question is left unanswered. What I can't understand is how Google Analytics could possibly record a visit if the visitor cannot login. I believe if GA is to get a ping, the visitor has seen my content. If anyone can help me understand, I'd appreciate it.
