As Olympics mania persists worldwide, countless fans can use the Medal Count website to keep tabs on a country's latest winnings. The site was designed by [Animal NewYork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/baskinrobbins-x-animal-crossing) as an easy way to follow the Olympics without being bogged down by all the unnecessary information and clutter.

According the Animal NewYork website, Metal Count "allows users to track the [medal count](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chocolate-medals) of several countries in real time during the Games and even makes a little cha-ching sound when a new medal has been won by one of your preferred countries."

The [minimalistic design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/minimal-counter) and countless ways to sort countries and medal winnings shows why the Medal Count website deserves to score a 10.0. The site gets a gold as one of the best Olympics sites available.
