How to add Visitor Counter to a Jimdo website

Embed Visitor Counter on Jimdo

01

Create a Visitor Counter add-on for Jimdo on Common Ninja

First, create a Jimdo Visitor Counter add-on on Common Ninja. On the add-ons catalog, find the Visitor Counter and enter the Editor.

02

Save the Visitor Counter add-on

When you're done creating the Visitor Counter add-on, click on the Save Changes button at the right top corner of the editor. If you don't have an account on Common Ninja, you'll have to register first.

03

Copy the Visitor Counter Embed Code

When you're ready to add the Visitor Counter add-on to your Jimdo website, click the Add To Website button at the top bar of the Editor. On the window that opens, click the Copy Icon to copy the add-on embed code. In the next steps, you will paste this code into your Jimdo website.

04

Paste the code to your Jimdo website’s HTML field.

Next, go to your Jimdo website editor and find the HTML field. It is most likely in the form of an HTML/Code widget or module which you can find on the Jimdo’s editor. Add it to your page, and paste the Visitor Counter Embed Code you’ve copied before to the HTML field. Save and update, and that’s it, you should have Common Ninja’s Visitor Counter add-on on your Jimdo website.

05

Alternative Method 1: Through the HTML option in the text’s editing area.

If you can't find the HTML/Code widget or module, there's another way to put Common Ninja’s Visitor Counter add-on on your Jimdo add-on. You can just add the code to a special HTML section in the text editor.

06

Alternative Method 2: Add it directly to your Jimdo website’s HTML code.

If you're having trouble finding a widget or a special part in your text editor where you can add the Embed Code, you can try a different way to add the Visitor Counter add-on to your Jimdo website. You can do this by putting it straight into your Jimdo website's HTML code.

Why Use This Widget

Use the Visitor Counter widget when you want to display live or cumulative traffic as a social proof signal that your site is active and trusted. Seeing that many others have visited or are currently online reassures new users that they are not alone and that your content or product has real traction. This is especially helpful for small brands, campaigns, landing pages, and community sites that want to highlight momentum. You can place the counter in footers, sidebars, or near calls to action. Over time, rising numbers tell a story of growth and consistency. It also gives returning visitors a subtle sense that they are part of something that is continuously evolving.
