You're missing my point. Those counters will not work any better on top of a normal page than they will on the bottom. If you had a HUGE page with a shit load of images and java, then the counters may not get a chance to load after the rest of the crap if a visitor doesn't stay for full load, but that's not what you're dealing with. By putting those fucking blinking images on top of your page - you stand a far better chance of LOSING traffic to them with nothing in return. Why would you buy traffic and send it directly to those filthy fucks at SexTracker?
