An access log includes a record of all the files which have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your site. The list is detailed, so when you have a web page with 2 embedded images, for instance, all of the three files will be in the log, not just the page. An access log typically includes the date, the Operating System, the Internet browser and the IP address for each file in human-readable form, so you can get a more complete picture about the most well liked files on your website. The log, that's also frequently called "raw data", is an addition to the web data that you usually get with a hosting account, not an alternative. A good example why you could need this kind of a log is if you wish to use some software on your personal computer to prepare a report about the website’s efficiency, but you don't want to use the regular graphs and tables that come with the server-generated web statistics.
Access Log Manager in Shared Website Hosting
Enabling the generation of access logs will be very simple when you get a shared website hosting from us. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, included with all the accounts, has a section dedicated to different logs and that is where you shall find the access logs too. As soon as you go there, you shall see a list of all the domain names hosted inside the account and the subdomains created for them. Our customized cloud hosting platform shall start generating an access log for each of them when you click on the On button, which you will see on the right. If you no longer need logs, disabling the option is just as simple and can be done by clicking on the Off button within the same section. All the logs are downloadable, so you can comfortably save and manage them on your desktop PC or notebook.
Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Hosting
If you host your Internet sites in a semi-dedicated server account with our company, you'll have the option to activate or deactivate the generation of access logs with no more than several mouse clicks within your Hepsia hosting CP. You shall find this function within the Access/Error Logs section, which you can access as soon as you sign in. All it takes for our system to start producing logs is a click on the On button that you can see there. The function can be triggered separately for any website no matter if it uses a domain name or a subdomain and you shall find the full list of all the hosts inside that section. Any access log can be downloaded as a text file with just a click and you could then look at it manually or use some software on your PC. The log generation could be disabled by simply changing the On option to Off inside the Logs section of your Control Panel.
