Need to know where your visitors are? What kind of systems they are using? Your visitor stats can give you that information. Analyzer is up-to-date at recognizing the most recent browsers and operating systems.
You need to make sure that your website is viewable best by the technology your visitors are using. You can use visitor reports as a checklist and priority list to make sure your visitors see what you think they are seeing.
The Visiting Domain Name Report displays the domains that most frequently accessed your web site. Domains are servers on the Internet such as AOL or a local Internet Service Provider and are uniquely identified by a number called an IP address, such as 208.219.77.29. Those numbers are translated for people into names, by the Internet Domain Name System (DNS).
This report displays information about the countries visitors to your site are located in. The geographical information comes from a database that we maintain on our server which associates countries with IP addresses. The database is not guaranteed to be accurate, but we do our best to keep it up to date. The geographic data is provided by http://ip-to-country.webhosting.info/.
The Browser Report tells you what web browsers visitors are using when they access your web site.
Tip: use this report to determine whether the browsers visiting your web site support a specific web technology. For example, if most of your users use Netscape 4 or 6, or Internet Explorer 5, then it's safe to use an advanced feature like cascading style sheets.
The Visiting Operating Systems Report tells you what Operating System your visitors are using.
Tip: use this report to determine if a web technology is appropriate. If 99% of your visitors use Windows, then you can focus on designing your site for Windows users, with Windows technology such as Active-X controls. But if a significant percentage of your visitors do not use Windows, it would be wise to use a platform independent language like Java.
Search Engine spiders are robots that traverse your website in order list it on Search Engines. This report shows a breakdown of which spiders have visited your site.
The authenticated users report shows you hits and sessions of a user who logged in to your site using http authentication. If the visitor did not log in, it will show up as "-".

* Detailed breakdown of pages, files, images, and directories pulled from your server.
* Graphical and chart views of total hits, broken down into bandwidth, page views, and visitors per day.
* Tracking of popular days and hours so that you can schedule necessary downtime most effectively.
* Comprehensive summary of query string variables used on your pages, along with the values of those variables.
Page Type analysis measures hits and bandwidth in four categories. A request can be either a
* Page: General webpages displayed in a browser.
* Image: GIF, JPEG, PNG and other image format files.
* File: EXE, PDF, ZIP and other downloadable content.

Most Popular Resource analysis shows most frequently occuring requests broken down by type, but also includes summary information across all types and directories.
This report shows the most requested files on your web site. 'Files' are defined as accesses that are not Graphics, Pages or Misc. Web, such as an application with the extension .exe.
Tip: Incomplete Requests are requests that were canceled in the middle of a transfer (i.e. the user got tired of waiting for the file to download and clicked the Stop button in their browser). If you have a large number of incomplete requests for a file, it's a good idea to try to reduce the size of that file or check your web server's performance.
This report details the most requested graphics on your web site. Graphics are defined on the file extensions tab under global options.
Tip: if you have a large number of incomplete requests for an image, it's a good idea to try to reduce the size of that graphic or check your web server's performance.
This report details the most requested misc. web files on your web site. Misc. Web files types are defined in the global options under file extensions.
This report shows the most requested directories on your web site, which is useful for a broader look at the popularity of different areas on your web site.
Least Popular Resource analysis shows least frequently occuring requests broken down by type, but also includes summary information across all types and directories.

This report displays the number of hits per day. The report covers the entire date range of the report, except as limited by filters. You can click the Chart View button to view this graph as a chart.
This report shows the number of page views per day in the time period spanned by your log file. By default, Page Views refer to requests for HTML pages, while hits refer to any request for any type of file from the server. The number of page views is a better measure of web site traffic then hits because the page view number is unaffected by the number of images on each page.

This report displays the number of visitors per day in the time period spanned by your log file. A visitor is defined by a formula that attempts to measure the number of people who visit your web site. Hits and Page Views only measure the number of requests for pages or files; the visitor metric attempts to figure out which hits and which page views are associated with a specific user. Visitors are also called sessions or users.
It must be stressed that, due to a great deal of technical considerations, this number should be taken with a grain of salt. It is certainly proportional to the number of actual people who visited your web site, but it's not a 100% accurate measure.

This report displays information about the query strings used to access your web site. Query strings are data after a ? question mark in the URL. For example, in the URL /index.html?query=variable, query is the query string and variable is the value of the query string.
Query strings are typically used in dynamically generated sites. This report is most useful in conjunction with a filter that restricts on page name.
