When using tracking software or other self hosted programs that display or perform actions based on the time, the time that it is going to use is the time of your webserver.
If your webserver is in a different timezone than you it can get confusing.
You can adjust the timezone by either adding an .htaccess file or editing the one you have.
Simply add the following line to the file:
SetEnv TZ America/New_York

This example uses EST. To get the exact phrase for your time zone use the following table. You only need to choose a city in your timezone. It does not need to be the exact city you live in.

PHP Timezones

Make sure the file does not already exist or other stuff might stop working. WordPress uses .htaccess files.
If the file already exists just add the previous SetEnv line as the first line in the file.
