I submitted few of my blogs on IndiVine today morning. On one of the blogs, currently 5 likes are being displayed. However, on my dashboard I saw that 3 people have liked it. I'm new to IndiBlogger and would really appreciate if someone can help me get familiar with the platform. Thanks.

The no. of votes is a complicated math that takes your indirank in the calculation.  It doesn't indicate the no. of people who voted for your post. BTW welcome to IB Isha!

Each vote is counted as 1+(Your Indirank/100)

This is what I remember atleast. I'm certain I have read it somewhere on IB or in the forums.

IB team, do confirm :)

Hello Isha Smile Welcome aboard. 

As a general suggestion, please do not take these votes that seriously. There are members who upvote our post without reading it (i.e. without evening visiting our blog Tongue out) Laughing They just click the upvote button, just so as to get a similar upvote in return (their thinking: "you upvote my post and I will upvote yours") This has often happened with most of us here. But such empty upvotes do no good to anyone.
