An access log contains a record of all files that have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your website. The list is comprehensive, so in case you have a page with two embedded images, for instance, 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 each and every file in human-readable form, so you can get a good idea about the most well liked files on your Internet site. The log, which is also often named "raw data", is an addition to the web data which you normally get with a hosting account, not a replacement. One example why you may need this kind of a log is if you wish 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 regular graphs and tables that come with the server-generated web stats.

Access Log Manager in Website Hosting

When you get a website hosting from us, you will be able to choose if access logs must be produced and for which domains or subdomains in your account this must be done. You'll be able to enable this option from the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, which comes with all shared accounts. Every domain you host or subdomain you create shall be listed there and you'll see an On/Off option next to each and every one of them, so you can effortlessly activate or disable the generation of access logs individually for every website that you have. You can save a log to your computer by clicking on the Download link that you will see inside the same exact section of the CP. The link will be available even if you stop the log generation, so you shall still have access to the data collected by our system.

Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting

Our advanced web hosting platform shall generate access logs for any site hosted in a semi-dedicated server account, as long as this feature is activated. All domains and subdomains that you have shall be listed within the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia CP, that we provide with all the accounts, so if you want our system to start producing logs for any of them, you should simply click on the small button on the right side of the respective domain/subdomain and change the default Off option to On. You could stop this feature at any time by following the same steps. You can find a Download link for every single log inside the very same section of the Control Panel, so you may save the content gathered by our system in .txt format with simply a mouse click. An existing log file could be downloaded even after the function has been deactivated, so you'll still be able to check out the data that has already been generated.
