HOW TO PUT HIT COUNTERS IN YOUR BLOG

Do you ever wonder how many people visit your blog? Well there are services you can install that can tell you all about the traffic on your site.

If you look at this blog, you can see the VISITOR COUNTER that I put on the right side. It's the one with the numbers. I started the counter from 1000 so people will think that 1000 people visited the blog.


To insert the hit counter, follow these steps:

1) Go to Easy Hit Counters .

2) Choose the style of hit counters

3) Fill up the form in that website.

Desired User Name: You can put your name
Desired Password: You can use your current password
Starting Count: You can start at 0 or 1000 (if you want to show that many people have been to your blog
Email Address: Your email address (email will be verified)
URL of page: Your blog address
Title of Page: Title of your blog

After filling up, click "I agree" and click "Submit".


4) A code will be given to you in the next page. Highlight and copy the whole code.

5) Then login into your blog. Click "Layout".

6) On the right column, click "Add a Page Element". Scroll down and when you see HTML/JavaScript, click "Add To Blog".

7) Paste the code that you have copied from the Hit Counter website. Give a title example VISITOR COUNTER. Then click "Save".

8) Back to the "Layout" page, click "Save" again.

9) View your blog and your hit counter will be there.
