Google analytics

Post by bambooweb »

I am looking at using Google Analytics to see how people use this site.
It goes far beyond what the web host provides and will tell me things like what screen resolution visitors are using or what speed of connection they have. It can also be set up to track which buttons people press.

I set it up on the home page www.bambooweb.info and found out that in the first 24 hours the screen resolution of people visiting the home page are:
Screen Resolution Visits
1024x768 105
800x600 32
1280x1024 22
1280x800 12
1152x864 8
1680x1050 5
1280x768 4
832x624 4
1280x854 2
1920x1200 2
1280x720 2
1280x960 1
1400x1050 1
1440x900 1

Christmas is coming up and I can use the 1920x1200 computer and monitor. :)

The down side of this is that the program also checks for Flash and Java capability and this causes an alert to pop up if someone has their security setting set to ask before running an activeX or Java program. If you have this problem please contact me and I can tell you how to block the program but I think the program has it benefits.

I'm 800x600.

What other interesting things does it have ?
Maybe, it can find out what website the users go to after they have gone to bambooweb.info

I bet there would be some weird ones, like
rentmychest.com

I dream. Dreams lead my visions rather than the real life I can see.
Can I hear things in my dream?
