Need help finding an invisible counter

[vivnet]

Anyone know of a good free invisible counter? There are a lot of free counters out there but I haven't been able to find an invisible one. Your help is most appreciated!

Does anything like this even exist? If you have access to your log files, you can process and create statistics yourself.

I didn't want to go to the trouble of doing it myself. There are some sites that offer invisible counters but they charge mega $$$
Anyone know of any other alternatives? Thk

are you looking for full-featured stats with unique visitors, etc , or just a simple page counter to count the number of hits the page gets?

Just a simple page counter to count the number of hits the page gets is all I need. Beggars can't be choosy as they say. A full-featured counter/stats with unique visitors and more would be GREAT but I doubt there are any freebies for that around. Thanks for your help

Not quite invisible, but somewhat hidden. If you sign up with http://extremetracking.com, and then change the width/height of the image to 1x1, then put it after your copyright notice or something similar, it will look like a period ending a sentence.

I believe HTMLCounter.com offers free invisible counters.

HotScripts has some invisble ones with uniques and a whole lotta stuff.

Requies PHP and MYSQL mostly.

Bravenet used to have a counter code that you could modify to become invisible.

Webalizer works great. However, before you go through all the work of installing it (it's a pain if you've never installed a script before), you might want to ask your host if your site comes with any tracking programs/log file analysis. (or you could visit their website)

I've dealt with four hosts over the past few years, and every single one has offered some sort of tracking program where we can monitor visits.

If your hosting comes with a Plesk or CPanel control panel, you most likely have Webalizer installed on your website. Many other hosts set up every account with some sort of open-source log analysis program.
