Copy the HTML code to the clipboard and switch back to your Hoop.la page.
Installing the visitor statistics counter on your Hoop.la page
Go to your Hoop.la home page. Just below your user name you will find a number of menu items to manage your Hoop.la presence.
Select Manage --> Admin Control Panel
The Admin control panel will open up and give you an administrative panel on the left of the home page. Select the Basic Settings tab. This will open a number of text boxes on the center of your home page where you can enter text to customize the page.
The last text box on this page is reserved for a custom footer.
Paste the HTML code that you had generated at TraceMyIP to embed the visitor tracker. Save the settings and exit the Basics settings page.
If you now visit your home page, you will find that the footer will show your selected visitor counter.
Verifying the click counter code installation
Once you have followed the steps above to install your visitor counter code, you need to ensure that the tracker code is installed properly.
- Visit the section(s) of your website and verify that the tracker image shows up as intended. If you are a premium subscriber, disable the invisible tracking option first, then visually verify your tracker installation.
- Additionally, you can check if your own visits are being properly logged. If you are blocking your own visits from being logged by the tracker, disable the auto IP blocking feature first.
