Anybody know how to add a hit counter to a page? I don't want to use 3rd party software and just want something simple to keep track of hits for my clients. I create Virtual Tours for Real Estate and each tour is it's own separate hosted page so I'm just looking for some basic code to paste on each tour page so the client can keep track of how many unique viewers have viewed their tours each day, week or even maybe a total hit count for the life of the tour? Here is a sample of what one of the tours looks like:

Thanks Mansour but that's what I'm trying to avoid. I don't want to have to go and get a new hit counter for every new tour I create and sometimes that's ten tours a day. Isn't there some generic HTML code or PHP that can do this so I can just keep it as a snippet and copy and paste it to each new page? Trying to streamline the process as much as possible.

Do you have cpanel access Daniel? Sometimes theres one on there you can use... on the cgi scripts...

The thing is that all the hits need to be recorded - so you cant just add a bit of code without it linking to somewhere that records the hits....
Have fun

I have Site Analytics from Godaddy but it's such a convoluted mess I can't figure out what's going on? :) I'll call them later today and see if they can help me out! Thanks to you all for your help!

Dan,

Inger made a great suggestion. Google Analytics will show you a lot of information.
