Implement the counter on your website

You will then see a page with your counter code:

Click the button “Select all text above”. Now you just have to copy the code and implement it in your site. To insert the motigo webstats counter code it is possible to use various editors like the Editor in windows, windows notepad, macintosh simpletext or any other established text editor.

We will guide you through the implementing process, but first of all please take note of some basic principles.

If we ask you to... Then please...
...get the code ...follow the steps of the “standard install”
...copy the code ...highlight the code with your mouse, then ctrl – c or rightlick your mouse and “copy”
...paste your counter code into your page's source code or elsewhere ...use ctrl – v or rightclick your mouse and “paste”

Implementing your motigo webstats counter code in your site’s source code:

  • Select the complete webstats counter code by using the "select all text above" button in the field and copy it (either via a right mouse click or with the ctrl + c keys)
  • Open the code of the website that you want to implement the counter into (in most cases this is the index.html) with the editor you usually use to work on your website and search for the <body> tag.
  • Paste the copied code completely into the code of your website within the <body> and the </body> tag. In order to measure your statistics correctly, it is important that the code of the counter is not altered in any way and that it is placed within the <body> and </body> tags.
  • After you have saved this change, put your site online again.
