title: Count Number of Each Month in Column of dates in Google Spreadsheet
body: <p>I have a Google sheet with a column of dates.  I would like to get a total for each month, so that I can see how many of the dates are January, February, March, etc.  This formula does not work (<strong>Dates</strong> is the name of range):</p>
  
  <pre><code>=COUNTIF(Dates,Month=1)
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>Any help is appreciated.</p>
