Using jQuery Countdown Scripts is a simple and performance optimal way to add a dynamic and interactive countdown timer to your website.

I am sure you have noticed the countdown features on e.g. sport sites showing countdown until a big event. You have probably also seen sites that are not online yet or down for maintenance using a jQuery countdown timer to tell visitors when to come back. This is called a under construction timer or landing page. They can also be used to countdown to a release date of a game, a movie or to a party.

If you like jQuery plugins and javascript in general, make sure to check out the thousands of fully-licensed scripts found over at Envato Market.

In this article, you will find most of the useful jQuery countdown scripts available right now. jQuery is also useful in many other areas and in particular jQuery Slider, jQuery carousel and plugins can give a website a face-lift.
