Installing a Free Link Tracker, CountOne
One of the simplest link trackers I have ever known. But that is all what I need in order to know how many times a link has been clicked. The installation process didn’t run smoothly because there was no clear explanation about it. It seems that one has to move the .htaccess file manually after installing the script.
What I like about this script are:
- Simple! I like something simple. Here is an example of how it presents the data:

- A user can use single database for different domains. He only needs to change the table prefix for each domain. Alhough Hostony allows me to setup unlimited databases, but using one database like this gives some advantages, particularly because I have to access the database in order to see visitors’ IP address and the time they clicked my links.
- The tracking URL is presented like this: http://www.domain.com/go/destination.html. It is nice to see the url ends with .html extension.
I have tried 10 links to track with this script. If it works properly, I want to use it for my other links.
