Visitor counters
 
I think I've read somewhere that counters are a bad thing - presumably they count as a link out on Free sites.
Are they OK on other types of site - hubs etc - or are they a traffic leak?
Thanks in advance |waves|

Not only do they count as a link, they will get you rejected most places (LLs). Why not use your server stats to gauge traffic?

Sure there is a traffic leak. Lemmy is right, get some server stats software, dont throw away your hard earned traffic.
