<div>What are you looking forward to? See the seconds tick down to your vacation, wedding, or retirement. Share your countdown by copying the web address (URL). The countdown automatically adjusts for DST changes in the selected location.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>countdown download</div><div></div><div>Download: https://t.co/FYMHPdklVJ </div><div></div><div></div><div>Anticipation is contagious! If you're excited (or nervous) about an upcoming event, odds are, you're not the only one. Why not use our simple but powerful countdown generator to create a countdown clock, displaying the days, hours, minutes and seconds until the date of the event. You can share your newly created countdown, so it becomes a focal point for everyone involved.</div><div></div><div></div><div>We've seen countdown timers used to generate buzz and anticipation around a party or vacation. Teams use them to stay on track and focussed, by ensuring team members have a sense of the time remaining until a critical milestone date. Event promoters and online marketers have reported significant boosts in conversion rates by using an online contdown timer to create urgency and drive action. Even NASA, uses a giant outdoor countdown clock to build anticipation and focus.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Countdowns are "sharing magnets"! A countdown to a date that means something to you and your network of friends or customers is something you want to share, right? Well guess what, so do your friends, and their friends.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>We run a relatively small website but we see 200-500 social shares per day of countdowns that are displayed on our website. That does not including the thousands of our countdowns that have been shared around and embedded on other websites.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Recently a Seattle household made the news and went "viral" on Instagram with a simple display of the number of days remaining in Trump's current presidency term. Tom Petty fans were intruiged by a countdown that appeared on the official Tom Petty website in early 2018. The hugely popular video game, Fortnite received a huge amount of attention and press coverage after introducing mysterious, in-game counters, leaving fans fascinated as to what they were counting down to.Increase conversion rates using the magic of urgencyAs an online marketer or e-commerce company what's your worst enemy? For many it's customer procrastination. They want what you offer but they can always buy it later. Maybe they'll wait until they have more information, more money or more time. There are a million reasons to "do it later".</div><div></div><div></div><div>Dominant and successful online businesses such as Ebay, Amazon and Booking.com make extensive use of urgency as a means to drive action and increase conversions. You can barely visit a successful online store, or ticketing/booking website without being exposed to urgency or scarcity-based marketing tactics. "Less than 5 tickets left at this price", "Hurry, only 3 days until sale ends" or "Order by 5pm to receive next day shipping". These companies are ruthlessly analytical and their tactics are driven by data and experimentation. They use these tactics because they have proven to be effective. Countdown timers are a crucial tool in your urgency-marketing toolbox.Busy? It won't take a moment with our simple but powerful countdown maker!I made this quick video to show how simple it is to create a countdown and embed in it a blog or website.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Mobile web browsing has exploded - if you run a website you may find that more than half your visitors are using smartphones or tablets. Our countdown clocks use mobile friendly code and run very little code on the user's device meaning they won't slow down or otherwise interfere with the user experience. We go beyond mobile-friendly by auto-generating a double-resolution version of your countdown to take advantage of Retina, and other high-resolution displays that are common on many of today's most popular devices.</div><div></div><div></div><div>We have two layers of protection built in. Firstly, the code we issue is contained in an iframe, the browser's same-origin policy prevents the iframe content from accessing code in your page, effectivly isolating our code from your website's code. Secondly we serve all our countdowns over an encrypted connection, this prevents hackers from altering the countdown before it loads into your page.</div><div></div><div></div><div>We want your countdown clock to look great, always. Every browser and operating system displays web content a little differently though. Assuming that every browser will render our countdowns with the antialiasing-level, font leading and kerning and effect compositing we want was unthinkable. That's why all our countdowns are pre-rendered by our team of Mac OS X servers so they look just right. We then cache the rendered content at edge locations all over the world so the can be delivered to your visitor, fast.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Page load time is an important factor in visitor satisfaction as well as in search engine ranking algorithms. Be careful when using third party widgets as some of them contain blocking JavaScript code or large files which can negatively impact page load times. Because our countdowns are pre-rendered the code download is very small. We also use edge caching strategies to deliver your countdowns from the location nearest to each user. When we do need to load content from the main server we use sophisticated in-memory caching to pull the data directly from RAM which is faster than reading from a hard disc.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I am trying to make a count down timer in a repeating group. Basically it is a social media feed and each new post you make will have a 24 hour limit. I want to have a real time countdown in each cell. Each cell will display different times based on when it was posted. Is this possible?</div><div></div><div></div><div>Note that in my example, I am showing the expiration in minutes in order to illustrate the countdown on posts I created a handful of minutes apart. You could have the countdown displayed in hours until it reaches a certain point, and then the countdown could switch to minutes.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I think my app if messed up haha. I put it on a random text element that I could actually find when trying to select an element and it still does not update real time. I even copy and pasted the countdown timer example with all its functionality and it does not show up as an option to select as an element</div><div></div><div></div><div>Both countdown functions count down by day, then by hour, then by minute. So a line of ad text with a countdown customizer might say "Hurry, sale ends in 3 hours," and then 2 hours and 28 minutes later say, "Hurry, sale ends in 32 minutes."</div><div></div><div></div><div>Customers will see the regular price and the promotional price on the Kindle eBook's detail page. They will also see the countdown clock. This clock shows how much time is left to purchase the Kindle eBook at the promotional price. You will earn the selected royalty rate on each sale during the promotion.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Note: If you're located in a territory not supported to purchase from Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk, you may not see your Kindle Countdown Deals (KCD) promotion listed on your Kindle eBook's detail page. This promotion can only be viewed by customers who can purchase from Amazon.com or Amazon.co.uk.</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>Hi Tom,</div><div></div><div></div><div></div><div>I would like to also add a countdown timer to an event landing page but absolutely have no idea on how to do this. The countdown is to the upcoming GDPR date, 25th May and would like to add this to the event landing page. -partner-forum-deadline-day-and-beyond#register-form</div><div></div><div></div><div>I for the life of me cannot seem to find a way to get my entry delay to make any kind of countdown sound(or flashing lights) upon opening up my store. When I exit and arm I get sounds during the countdown at least letting me now I have to lock up before the countdown finishes. My keypad also flashes lights during the process. Handy.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Same issue here. (How) did you solve it? Exit delay countdown is present but no sounds after entry. I am using in combination with motion sensor. I have had a few false alarm already because I forgot to disarm.</div><div></div><div></div><div>I built this rather nice thing (with the help of Darren_Murphy) which is an actual countdown. And the nice colors are thanks to CSS wizardry from Lucas_Pires.</div><div></div><div>Screenshot 2021-04-23 at 18.41.388241670 80.2 KB Screenshot 2021-04-23 at 18.42.388341690 83 KB Screenshot 2021-04-23 at 18.43.458321682 83.7 KB</div><div></div><div></div><div>To do so, I'm using the "jChavannes"' github (Link here) that is really complete, but I can't find a way to modify the countdown while it's running even though 'jchavannes' put a lot of tools to use his work.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Here is the HTML code of what i'd like to make work, with buttons of what I need to modify the countdown and the javascript of what I'm using to make the whole thing work (one library is missing but it's way too big to be put here, you'll find it in the Github).</div><div></div><div></div><div>Countdown clocks can be ridiculous to setup. Would love to see if anyone has a simple solution for implementing this countdown clock. The issue I encountered multiple times with setting one up, was that it would make the javascript cal (to start the countdown)l at the refresh of the page instead of calling it from another point to give it a true countdown to a certain date. cyberdave or callmevlad can probably give a solution here or point us in the right direction.</div><div></div><div></div><div>This is an example of the jQuery plugin "The Final Countdown" Download the plugin2. Upload the .js at your server 3. In the footer, put a link to where you have the countdown jQuery script stored.4....</div><div></div><div></div><div>Developed by South Carolina First Steps in 2003, the Countdown to Kindergarten program is part of a statewide initiative including community events, professional development opportunities, and an annual public awareness campaign. Learn more at countdownsc.org.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Countdown customizers let you easily add a countdown -- by day, hour, and then minute -- to an event in dynamic search ads, expanded text ads, and responsive search ads. The countdown, which automatically updates as the event draws nearer, is eye-catching and gives potential customers greater incentive to click your ad.</div><div></div><div></div><div>Let's say you're going to have a big online sale for 3 days from February 14 through 16 (ending at midnight as soon as February 17th begins). With the countdown syntax, you could set the ad's Title Part 2 like this: "Sale ends in =countdown("2021/02/17 00:00:00","en-us",3)!". Here's when your ad would run and examples of how it would look:</div><div></div><div> 356178063d</div>
