if you have got a webpage that comes up when you type in

www.stuartsite.com or whatever then there's an index.htm file that youll need to edit using something like front page or dreamweaver

Why have a counter anyway? I think they look pants and unprofessional, have a hidden counter if you want to know site traffic or the stats usually get included in any package in a lot more detail.

!

you need to open the index.htm page with a HTML editing software then paste the coding in to the page.

You will probably have to put your coding between <div> </div> tags.



If you get stuck send me a copy of the index htm and i will put it in then send it back.

Or the URL to your website and I should be able to take the HTMl coding from there.
