Web counters don't mean shit. Consider that each time a user reloads the page, the count increments. Each time google or any other automated bot hits the site, the count increments. Every time you fuck up and reload the page while testing a new update, the count increments. In short, web counters don't mean nearly as much as they might initially seem.

Plus, consider the esteem issues. If you put up a new page about which you feel excited, and put a web counter on it, looking forward to seeing all the accesses to your wonderful inspiration which will change life as we know it, then the accesses don't come and you have a count of ten, you may feel rather defeated. Many do not consider the every-day psychological implications of the Internet and its usage patterns, but they exist, just like Goddess herself.

Additionally, consider the potential security risk of a web counter. A web counter must use a cgi script, often in a server side include. This can introduce potential security holes, as well as slow down the system.

Discocounter eliminates all of these problems!

Fast Fast Fast Fast Fast
Discocounter introduces no lag into your web pages, through the use of new Erisian technologies. It uses no CGI or server side includes, and does not refer to an external site to obtain the count, so it will satisfy even the most demanding (or pain in the ass) system administrator.
