What Merchants Think

Merchants have expressed mixed feedback about the "Hit Counter" app. While some appreciate the basic functionality provided for free, many users are frustrated by the limited features available without a subscription. The monetization strategy and lack of unique page counting have been particular points of contention.

Key Strengths

  • Basic version suits informational sites well.
  • Easy to set up and use.
  • Offers good customization features.

Common Concerns

  • Subscription required for essential features, such as setting a starting count other than zero.
  • Previous versions had better free features, leading to disappointment.
  • Issues with monetization approach, especially for multi-site users.
  • Some users report functionality issues, such as not counting unique dynamic pages.
  • Difficulties in unsubscribing or managing subscription settings.

Final Thoughts

The "Hit Counter" app garners polarized reviews, appreciated by those seeking simplicity but criticized for its monetization and functionality issues. While it offers a solution for basic counting needs, several users feel the paid features should be included in the free version to match predecessor apps' accessibility.

Counter that doesn't countEasy install, BUT, counter does not work. Multiple visits to my website doesn't increment the counter. Going to delete as it is useless.

What was Wrong ??What numbers were displayed incorrectly with the existing WIX hit counter? Why not have the Powr Free Counter Version "replaced" with the existing Wix Free Counter (same limitations)?

Not needed in today's worldHit Counters are a simple JavaScript snippet created in 1990's. There's no reason an "App" is needed for this. Wix has one but it's too much for them to maintain for reasons that...

StinksIn the "free" version, you have to buy a subscription to set your counter at an initial value other than zero.
