WordPress is a very popular CMS , WordPress name of course already familiar to bloggers, Standard wordpress can’t display the total wordpress post views, You need a plug-in to display the wordpress view count.
First download the plugin WP-PostViews on Plugins menu> Add New
Or you can install it manually via FTP or cPanel
Download Here then extract the to wp-content/plugin/
After the install WP-PostViews, there are several settings on Post Views you should know:

To put the wordpress post views is not difficult, just add a little code in themes, Open Appearance >Editor
Then select the page you want to put wordpress view count, for example on each post, Open single.php/Single on the right.
For example I would put the view count on the post title and also the end of content:
Find :
<? Php the_title ();?>
Then change to :
<? Php the_title ();?> – <? Php the_views ()?>
Then to add end of content
Find :
<? Php the_content ();?>
then change to
<? Php the_content ();?>
<? Php the_views ()?>
After that Press the Update Files then open the post on your wordpress blog.
You can modify wordpress so that makes it even better by adding a social bookmarking plugin and make internal link each post to make your blog stronger
