An access log features a record of all the files which have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your Internet site. The list is thorough, so if you have a page with 2 embedded images, for instance, all of the three files shall be in the log, not only the page. An access log typically includes the date, the OS, the web browser and the IP address for each and every file in human-readable form, so you can get a good idea about the hottest files on your website. The log, that's also often referred to as "raw data", is an addition to the web data which you commonly get with a hosting account, not an alternative. An illustration why you could need this sort of a log is if you want to use some software on your computer to prepare a report about the website’s general performance, but you don't want to use the standard graphs and tables which come with the server-generated website stats.

Access Log Manager in Hosting

Enabling the generation of access logs will be exceptionally simple if you buy a hosting from our company. The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, supplied with all of the accounts, has a section on different logs which is where you will find the access logs as well. Once you navigate there, you'll see a list of all the domains hosted within the account and the subdomains created for them. Our custom made cloud hosting platform shall start creating an access log for any of them when you click on the On button, that you will see on the right. If you no longer require logs, disabling the option is just as easy and can be done by clicking on the Off button in the same section. All the logs are downloadable, so you can effortlessly save and manage them on your desktop PC or laptop.
