Good basic counter
It does everything that I need. Thank you

Just what I wanted
Installed this on one website and liked it so much I installed it on a second. Nothing to do except install it, purge the cache, log out, and log in. The display of page counts on the dashboard is just what I wanted.

OK, but not very friendly
Compared to what I was using (Advanced Page Visit Counter, which was removed for security reasons), this plug-in does the job - but is very cumbersome and not very friendly. It would be so much more useful with shortcodes. Also, would like to be able to use shortcodes on any page to get statistics about any other page counts (a statistics web page if you will - without ever having to log in to the admin panel). Two stars for me due to the plug in being cluncky, not very useful outside of the admin dashboard and lack of shortcodes and ease of use.

More trouble than its worth
This plugin crashed my website as soon as I installed it. I couldn't even get into my admin panel to disable the plugin. I eventually found out a way to disable by going to the source file folders and renaming the folder this one came in to something else.

Excellent Plugin and Very Useful
I recommend this plugin for every one, It'd very useful and easy to use, I use it on my WordPress Woocommerce Website, I can know the visitor count for each product listed, In my opinion this plugin is more useful than Google Analytics itself. Many thanks to the developer of this Page Visits Counter - Lite plugin.
