Counter

Html simple counter:
To add a counter to you site, it's useful to monitorate visitors access, you can use one of the  many free counters but the best free counter, I think, is statcounter. Statcounter (www.statcounter.com) is completly free and you have many resource like popular pages, entry pages, exit pages and more and more. You can also set a visible counter for your homepage and invisible counter for the others, or alls invisible. It's very simple to register and install. Remember to check the HTML only during the set up.
Once you have done the set up, statcounter will give oyu the code for your pages. Copy it in the body section (i.e. <body> in this section</body>), usually at the end.

Javascript counter BEST METHOD
Now GPC allows the use of javascript code, so paste the code from, e.g. from statcounter, directly in GPC:

  • open an account in www.statcounter.com (I prefer statcounter for many resons)
  • setup your account in stacounter using the javascript option and not the html only option
  • at the end of the setting up of your acconut in statcount yoou have the javacode
  • the javacode for your homepage will be like this:
    <!-- Start of StatCounter Code -->
    <script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
    var sc_project=NUMBER1;
    var sc_invisible=NUMBER2;
    var sc_partition=NUMBER3;
    var sc_security="NUMBER4";
    </script>
    Insert this code just before, e.g., the </body> tag or, in GPC where you like. Remember that you can place a code for your home page (so you can set visible the visitor's number only in your home page) and a code for the other pages.
    Insert the statcounter code for the other pages inside     your pages


You can also add to your pages, in addition to a counter, google analytics. Google Analitycs is similar to a counter but more powerful. Its drwaback is that you cannot track a single user.
Using statcounter and Goolge analitycs you have all.
