You could create a database with one table and one entry just the number of hits. when the page loads retrieve the data from the table and display it on the page +1 then further down the page update the database with +1.

 

make sense?

I don't quite understand...

 

If you could direct me to a tutorial it would be much appreciated

Is a good tutorial.

 

Create a single field database that increments on page loa is the idea. The tutorial will show you php/mySql.

Thank you very much.
