It’s like it’s 1995 again :-). Here’s a resource for scripts but to use
them your hosting server will need to have CGI
capabilities:

For a lot of reasons I would recommend not adding counters to your page
and instead glean stats from your access files.

Anyhow, I have a small website for a group that is just a simple hand-coded
page and a pdf file for download. I have been asked if it is possible to
add a visitor counter and a download counter (This page has been visited ##
times, This file has been downloaded ## times) to the page. I don't need
any kind of tracking or anything, just a raw count of page accesses and
file downloads.
My coding skills are passing fast, and I'm looking for something really
simple. I did a quick search and everything I see seems to involve
complicated databases and analytics. I want KISS.
Thanks,
Michael
