Hit Counters

This page explains the Hit Counter functionality available.

All hosting accounts on NextStep upwards are configured with the DeepMetrix StatsServer Graphical reporting service - negating the need for a hit counter.

NOTE: As we no-longer provide the basic CGI Hit Counter service - we suggest that customers should use a 3rd Party solution.
