An access log includes a record of all of the files that have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your website. The list is detailed, so in case you have a webpage with 2 embedded images, for example, all of the three files shall be in the log, not only the page. An access log normally includes the date, the OS, the web browser and the IP address for every single file in human-readable form, so you can get a more complete picture about the most popular files on your site. The log, that is also commonly called "raw data", is an addition to the web data which you commonly get with a hosting account, not a substitute. An illustration why you may require this kind of a log is if you wish to use some software on your computer system to prepare a report about the website’s functionality, but you don't want to use the typical graphs and tables that come with the server-generated website statistics.

Access Log Manager in Website Hosting

If you acquire a website hosting from our company, you shall be able to choose if access logs have to be produced and for which domains or subdomains in your account this should be done. You may activate this option from the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, integrated with all shared accounts. Every domain name you host or subdomain you set up will be listed there and you'll see an On/Off option next to each and every one of them, so you can quickly activate or deactivate the generation of access logs individually for each site that you have. You can save a log to your PC by clicking on the Download link that you will see inside the very same section of the Control Panel. The link is available even if you deactivate the log generation, so you will still have access to the data gathered by our system.
