An access log features a record of all of the files that have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your site. The list is thorough, so in case you have a web page with two embedded images, for instance, all of the three files shall be in the log, not just the page. An access log normally includes the date, the OS, the browser and the IP address for every file in human-readable form, so you can get a good idea about the most popular files on your Internet site. The log, that is also frequently called "raw data", is an addition to the web data which you commonly get with a hosting account, not a substitute. A good example why you could need this type of a log is if you wish to use some software on your PC to prepare a report about the website’s overall performance, but you do not want to use the typical graphs and tables which come with the server-generated site stats.

Access Log Manager in Shared Website Hosting

Enabling the generation of access logs will be incredibly easy when you purchase a shared website hosting from our company. The Hepsia web hosting Control Panel, provided with all the accounts, features a section dedicated to different logs and that is where you shall find the access logs as well. As you go there, you'll see a list of all the domains hosted within the account and the subdomains created for them. Our customized cloud hosting platform shall start creating an access log for each of them as soon as 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 quick and can be accomplished by clicking on the Off button inside the exact same section. All of the logs are downloadable, so you can easily save and manage them on your desktop computer or laptop.
