This example uses the existing counter ID for tilmanambach.neocities.org, not a separate new counter.
How counting works
counter.gratis uses a daily IP-based visitor count: a given IP address is counted once per UTC day for a counter. Pageviews are recorded separately when the full tracking snippet is used. These are useful traffic indicators, not exact counts of individual people.
