Is there a place where you can get info about your site like um # are online and stuff like that? And do u know where you can get for free?

There are various free scripts written in php , perl etc that will do the job for you, just try searching on some of the more common free scripts sites.

what specific words should i use, i dont even know what it is called

Seaech under the heading 'counters.'

What you want is an Online Counter. You can get a simple one from here:
Add Free Stats (http://top.addfreestats.com/inlive.html)
or here:
http://www.lissaexplains.com/fun11.shtml
Both are free, but the second one is much, much nicer.

I hope this helps. Have a nice day! :)

Try:

http://fastonlineusers.com

for the counter that Lissa uses to say how many people are on.

Thanks i was also wondering are there any free polls where once you vote they show the results on the page not on a separate window that isn't php?
