An access log is a thorough list of all the files which were accessed by the visitors of a given Internet site. Each and every file that was requested for some reason shall be listed, so if you have one webpage with three embedded images, one video and one embedded text file, as an example, the access log will contain a total of six entries - one for any of the 6 files that were accessed when the site visitor opened the page. A log usually offers the file name and path, the date, along with the visitor’s Operating System, browser and IP address. Sometimes you could also find the referrer Internet sites that sent the visitors to your Internet site. The data which an access log file provides is in human-readable plain text format. It may be processed by special software on a laptop or computer and used to write reports on the overall performance of an Internet site, aside from the web statistics which your server may have generated.

Access Log Manager in Shared Web Hosting

Enabling the generation of access logs shall be incredibly easy if you purchase a shared web hosting from us. The Hepsia website hosting Control Panel, included with all the accounts, has a section on different logs and that is where you will find the access logs as well. When you navigate there, you'll see a list of all the domain names hosted within the account and the subdomains created for them. Our custom made cloud hosting platform will start producing an access log for each of them the instant you click on the On button, which you'll see on the right. If you no longer need logs, disabling the option is just as easy and can be accomplished by clicking on the Off button within the same exact section. All the logs are downloadable, therefore you can comfortably save and manage them on your desktop PC or laptop.
