How do you check the counter? If you refresh the page with the counter
in your browser this is of course also a hit - but just by you.

A script is not enough - you also need a database and a table for this.

Try to learn PHP and at least the basics of SQL and do not just
copy&paste - otherwise you will have scripts with security holes just
because you don't understand what the scripts really do and you don't
see the security problems in the code.
