Nancy asks…
how to ad a counter on a yahoo web hosting website ?
I would like to track how many people visit my site. How do I do this?

admin answers:
The old style “ticker-type” counters are not a good way to measure visitors accurately. We’ve included the link below on how to do this in SiteBuilder if you must, but to get accurate data we suggest running Google Analytics, or using Site Statistics, built into your Control Panel already. To reach our Site Statistics, Click the “Web Hosting Control Panel” link, then on the Home tab, in the Site Activity module, click the “Site Statistics” link.

Ken asks…
For yahoo’s pro package for geocities I know you get a domain but is yahoo the web host?
because i bought a domain name from a other place but i can’t do any thing on it b/c i dont have a web host

admin answers:
If you haven’t purchased it yet, don’t! Geocities Web Services are very poor and slow. It’s hard as hell to debug any errors in PHP code because when you do something as simple as leave out a ; the screen shows up blank. I had it at one time but it was a waste of my money. Although it can install cool stuff for you like phpBB and Gallery. Nobody will see it because the majority of the time there’s an Internal Server Error, Blank Page, or it never loads. This was a period of 2 months I had these problems off and on.
