Counter Creation
Step #1
Review the counters we have on display to choose the one you want to put on your site. Click on the radio button present besides the counter to select it.
Step #2
This form allows you to set the parameters to create a counter for your site.
Legend:
1. The number of digits you want your counter to display. For example, if you anticipate a large number of visitors to your site and see many site hits, then you should choose a larger number. We recommend that you should think big and start with atleast 5 digits so that you do not have to create a larger digit counter later on.
2. Don't want to look green? Enter the starting number of hits that the counter should display.
3. Enter the name of the site where you will be placing your counter. Do NOT enter the "http://" at the start of the url, just keep it in the format of "www.xyx.com". We use this to make sure that the counter is running on the site for which it has been registered. Please enter the correct url otherwise your counter may not work.
4. Enter the 4-digits displayed on the left of the field. This is done to avoid robot-generated counter creation and to ensure that only humans users avail our free service. Please enter it it correctly, otherwise you would not be able to create your counter.
5. Read our terms of service regarding this free service by clicking on the terms and conditions link. This is an agreement which is made between both sides and also outlines the DOs and DON'Ts regarding your counter.

After you have entered the information asked for in the counter generation form on the main page of our web site, a preview of the counter you have chosen would be displayed to you. below the preview, a block of HTML would be presented which will contain the counter code. The you will be presented with a block of HTML that contains the counter code. In order to use our hit counter, you must have access to your own HTML code. If your website was built with a web-site editor like MS Frontpage, make sure you are editing in "HTML mode" and are not in "Design" mode.
1. Once you have created the counter, copy (ctrl+c, or right click and select "copy") the counter code on the screen.
2. Open your favorite web editing program and open the page where you wish to place this counter.
3. Paste (ctrl+v, or right click and select "paste") the code into your HTML where you wish to place the counter. The counter may appear as a broken image on your page, which is normal before the page is uploaded.
4. You may use tables or other HTML formatting tools to position the counter table on your site. However, do not alter the counter code in any way or your counter service may be jeopardized. Please read our terms of service in this regards.
5. Save your page and upload it to your web server/host to view your counter.
6. You can use the same code on every page of your web site, however you will need to create a separate counter(s) if you have multiple web sites. If you wish to choose a new counter style or reset your counter number, simply re-create a new counter and install by re-doing the above steps!
