Plugin you can use. Plugin is nothing but the combination of java script and html code just adds those codes where you are creating your page dynamically. I think it will work.

How to count page view There are certain instances where tracking a page view is valid. its simple: mixpanel.track('page viewed' { 'page name' : document.title 'url' : window.location.pathname });

you can use static variable for that and increase the count when page/master page loads. alternatively some plugin available just add that plugin to show the counter in ur page. you can find those plugin in google.

It's best store the value in to the Database table and update them whenever the page requested. Say for example for every page in the Page_Load event itself update the Page_Count variable in the database.

Every time page is requested I need to open connection and set page count and then need to close connectionright? I don't think this is a best way to store page view count. But thank you for your valuable answer @francis
