Revealed: What Mac Users Like To Read About Macs.
How to make your Mac work better? Yes, but no. Here’s what Mac users prefer to read about on our site. The results of a little data collection are revealing. First, let me start by saying that we write about what interests us first, assuming that it will interest many Mac users. We probably do OK but it’s rather arrogant on our part to determine what everyone else wants to read. We have a staff of four; all with surprisingly different Mac experience. I’ve been using Macs since the original 128k version in early 1984. Jack is the newest and a former Windows addict (he’s now recovering). Alex is our most opinionated and self absorbed Mac user (aren’t we all?), and Bambi loves Mac things that work well, don’t cause problems, and cost less. Second, we write not only about what interests us, as a collective group, but try to bring to your attention items of a specific and general sense but fully about Macs, Apple, applications, tips, opinions (and we label them as such), Microsoft, and anything else that “just seems to fit.”
As to whether our readers, you Mac users, really like what we write about… well, that’s only evidenced by return visits, comments (good and bad), and total visitors to the site. Surprisingly, many of our Mac readers show an interest in articles, news, comments, reviews in a way different than we’d expect.
The Top 10 List
Remarkably, no. Those things interest Mac users, but what appears to be on most readers lists are articles about the Mac, Mac utilities, Mac applications, and a little bit of controversy.

Number 5
Lots of folks flamed Jack and he deserved it. Based on Apple’s recent earnings, the iMac is doing fine. Click Here to read about the house that Jack couldn’t build. That’s the bottom six of the Top 10. Wait. There’s more. But I couldn’t squeeze them all into a single page. Click Here for Page 2 and the Top 4. The folks at Mac360 have a few domains for sale.
