An access log is a comprehensive list of all the files that were accessed by the guests of a certain site. Every file which was requested in some way shall be listed, so if you have just one webpage with three embedded images, one video and one embedded text file, as an example, the access log will contain a total of 6 entries - one for each of the six files which were accessed when the site visitor opened the page. A log usually shows the file name and path, the date, in addition to the visitor’s Operating System, web browser and IP address. In some cases you could also find the referrer websites that sent the visitors to your Internet site. The info which an access log file features is in human-readable plain text format. It may be processed by special software on a personal computer and used to prepare reports on the performance of a website, in addition to the web stats your web hosting server may have generated.

Access Log Manager in Shared Hosting

When you obtain a shared hosting from our company, you will be able to choose if access logs must be produced and for which domains or subdomains inside your account this must be done. You can activate this function from the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia CP, included with all shared accounts. Every single domain name you host or subdomain you set up shall be listed there and you'll see an On/Off option next to each of them, so you can quickly activate or disable the generation of access logs separately for every single site that you have. You could save a log to your personal computer by clicking on the Download link that you shall see within the exact same section of the CP. The link is available even after you disable the log generation, so you will still have access to the data gathered by our system.
