Glad to hear that.
Jetpack can only record stats if it is connected, since your site wasn’t able to connect to Jetpack for a while the stats weren’t recorded.
As for why Jetpack’s stat counts are different to Google Analytics, please keep in mind that Jetpack stats don’t track the following:
– Visits to uploaded documents and files
– Visits from browsers that do not execute javascript or load images
– GoogleBot and other search engine spiders/robots
– Visits by users that are logged in
Thus it would stand to reason that you would see different views/visits in Jetpack’s stats than Analytics.
I’m not totally familiar with configuring Google Analytics or what it tracks by default, and their support documentation doesn’t go into what they do or do not track with regards to the individual web properties that you set up. This is the document I found:
https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/1008080
We’ve also posted an article about Jetpack Stats on our site that might be a good read – and how it works together with Analytics:
