151599 2003-06-10 17:57:00 Are you using your own server? or an offshore/offsite server?
I guess you are using an offstie one, otherwise you would be taking care of this in-house.
I think GoStats (http://gostats.com/) will do what you want. That was the first find in google anyways.
Have you heard of google?:|
I found that site within 5 secs on 56k:-|
If you are actually hosting your own server (god forbid) it has its own hit counters. That is if you are using the minimum server requirements - but then again, I doubt you are using your own server.

www.nedstatbasic.net/ (http:) - they are pretty reasonable, and only require you to have a small (20x20 pixel or something - it's smaller than the F1 button in the PressF1 logo up the top) image on your page...
Just be cautious of where you put your Webpage counter thing, as some people have a bad habit of sticking them right in the middle of no-where and it just detracts value from the website.

151602 2003-06-10 22:04:00 If your web site hoster does PHP you can make your own, I made a "hit recorder" for mine. E.ric (351)
151603 2003-06-11 01:43:00 The one I use for my website is called:
Site Meter (http://www.sitemeter.com) they are free & they are very very good!!, & I have not had any problems with them.

The only thing is if your site does not get any hits for a long time your account gets removed.

Hope this helps

That is NOT true Chris, any e-mail you get from them you can Unsubscribe from them safely.

151605 2003-06-11 03:30:00 Sorry stu but......

I made up a specific_adress_for_bravenet_use_ONLY@one-ofmy-domains.net.nz and received enough spam to force the blocking of that address, very little of it was from bravenet itself. What other conclusion could i make after observing that????
