Hi bloggy readers,
By using 2 powerful webstats Sitemeter or Google Analytics, you will get the traffic report regarding how many people who have been visiting your blog since the morning until midnight, in the regular basis. But how do we know the total number of people who are currently online and still exploring our blog, at the time we check them? Can we have a direct information regarding how many people are still online in our blog? The answers is yes, we can have that information by using an awesome widget called blog counter widget.
With this widget, we will get the actual report of those who are still reading our blog. There are many websites that provide blog counter widget for free, BlogsCounter is one of them.
Blogscounter is a blog counter widget that provides an actual, not real-time, information about how many people who are currently online in your blog.

In the Page Element, now pick the best position regarding the placement of the blog counter widget. My suggestion would be the footer area, because the footer area is the best position for everything about website information.

After finding the best position of your blog counter widget, now press Add a Gadget in the area you've chosen and then, pick HTML/Javascript in the options as the platform for the online tracker widget.
