    Google Analytics shows you how people found your site, how they explored it, and how you can enhance their visitor experience. Improve your website return on investment, increase conversions, and make more money on the web.

    One of the many things Google Analytics can report on what browser and operating systems are most popular. Check out our results!

    Below is a sample report that Google Analytics  can provide for your community. 

    This report is based on our own www.igloosoftware.com:

    PC 85% vs MAC 14%

    IE 55%
    Firefox 36%
    Safari 10%
    Opera 1%

    PC:
    IE 55% (IE7 @ 60%; IE6 @ 38%)
    Firefox 30%

    MAC:
    Safari 21%
    Firefox 5%

    Want to set up Google Analytics for your site?
    If you don't already have a Google Analytics account go to Google Analytics Installation Guide and follow their 10 step process.
    From the IGLOO control panel click Google Analytics and enter your tracking code.
