Enhancing your Website:  

Small enhancements can make things more interesting and more 'Professional' looking: 

Various Enhancements can be easily added to your site that will improve its' looks and increase its' functionality.

( First step to all is to Login to your Web. In case you forgot how >> How to Login )

*********************************

  Add a Counter to your Webpages  

1.    From your Editing area choose 'Enhance My Site' (see below Left) then on next page you will choose 'Counter'

Enhance your Website

Install a Counter for your Pages

2.   We offer four types of hit counters. Select the one that best fits your needs. To get the counter to work, copy the HTML code for the counter you want and paste it into your page. Whenever our server sees the code, it will add the visitor to your traffic count.

Pick your Counter Style

So, what you are going to do is copy the line next to the Counter you want and click on the 'work on my Site' link (Left side Text Link) to go back to your Members' Editing Area. We then choose The Page We want, go down and choose a text box and paste in our code. Click the 'Update' button and then the 'Save' That's it, your Counter is installed.

Pick a Text Box

This is the Code we put in the textbox:
the part in Red is what We copied from the other page and is all that is necessary to make the Counter work. The part in Black We added as a sort of title. The <b> gives us Bold Lettering and the 2 <br> give us blank lines under it before the Counter

<b>Visitors since 4/19/2001</b><br><br> <ISML TYPE="counter" OPTION=graphic_odometer> 
Make sure to Save before you Exit.
