I wanted a simple, direct plugin that would show visitors how many visitors my site
gets. This is the only one that doesn’t try to do too much or add visual clutter.
The one feature that seems unique to it is that it allows you to choose the starting
number- this was important to me because my Blogger site had 3.5 million visitors
prior to the switch to Wordpress, and I didn’t want to lose that social validity.

I loved it. It is functional and nice to look at. It would be great if in the future
maybe it could show statistics per week but as it is right now it’s great and deserves
all the recognition Thank you ! Excellent work !
