Adding a web counter to your page

To display a visit counter on your webpage, you’ll need to edit your index.html file and insert a <script> tag that loads the counter.

Type: nano index.html to open your file for editing.

Add the following line exactly where you want the counter to appear:

<script src="https://counter.tilde.club/?page=homepage&user=yourname&style=57chevy"></script>
  • Replace homepage with any identifier for the page you’re tracking.
  • Replace yourname with your username or something unique to your site.
  • Replace 57chevy with a different style if you’d like.

Here’s an example:

<p>Visitor count:
<script src="https://counter.tilde.club/?page=homepage&user=alice&style=web1"></script>
</p>

Once you’ve added the line, save and close the file using CTRL+X, then press y and [Enter].

Refresh your site in your browser to see the counter.

Available Styles §

You can use any of these style names in the style= parameter:

  • 57chevy
  • 7seg
  • bbldotg
  • bellbtm
  • blgrv
  • cntdwn
  • computer
  • ds9
  • fdb
  • led
  • links
  • marsil
  • sbgs
  • web1

Try different styles to see which one fits your site best.

Note: The counter uses sessions and cookies to count unique visits per user every 24 hours (or whatever time is configured). Page refreshes won’t increase the count unless unique mode is off.

If you need help or want a custom style added, reach out to the site admin. ```
