As a precondition, hosting service of the site where a counter to be installed should support php language and have an access to MySQL database. Fortunately, these requirements have become almost a rule, and this procedure should not entail problems. But in case your hosting company does not provide such services, you should better find another hosting company.

Data highlighted by red line should be obtained from your hosting AdminPanel. If it is a problem for you, you can refer to the technical support of your hosting company. If support service is of good quality, you will get a reply in five minutes.

Data highlighted by green line, you should provide yourself. This is login and password to access a counter AdminPanel.
Step 2
Download counter files to your server, into a separate folder (for example, entitle it "counter").
Step 3
Launch installation file. To do this, enter the following string in browser slot: http://mysite.ru/counter/install.php

where:
mysite.ru - address of your site;
counter - title of the folder containing counter files (the folder should be kept in the root directory).

After successful installation a message will be displayed that installation is successfully completed.

Step 4
Log into the counter AdminPanel by entering login and password recorded in the configuration file.

"General statistics" page



Total number of browsing, hits and hosts for a site is displayed. In order to have complete site statistics it is necessary to install counter code on all site pages.

"Detailed statistics" page



Apart from hits and hosts the number of search requests from a specific searching engine for each particular page of a site is displayed along with full page loading rate. For example, loading rate of 66.6% shows that, in one case out of three, User didn't wait for full page loading.
In order to browse search requests that led to one or another page, click on quantitative index of a specific searching engine.



"Counter code" page



One of three variants of counter button color scheme should be selected.
Counter code "1x1" should be copied and pasted to the upper part of html-page code (for example, immediately after tag)
Counter code "88x31" should be copied and pasted to the lower part of html-page code (to the usual location of counter buttons).

"Settings" page



The only parameter requiring to be set is time of statistical data storage on server.

Below you can find the counter appearance. The upper digit of the counter indicates the rate of the given page browsing. Two lower ones show the number of hits and hosts for the whole site (it goes without saying that it is shown for the pages where the counter is installed).
