An access log includes a record of all of the files which have been requested by the visitors while browsing your Internet site. The list is thorough, so in case you have a web page with two embedded images, for example, all of the three files shall be in the log, not just the page. An access log normally features the date, the OS, the Internet browser and the IP address for each file in human-readable form, so you can get a good idea about the most popular files on your site. The log, that's also often called "raw data", is an addition to the web stats which you normally get with a hosting account, not a replacement. An illustration why you might need such a log is if you would like to use some software on your computer system to prepare a report about the website’s efficiency, but you don't want to use the typical graphs and tables which come with the server-generated site statistics.

Access Log Manager in Cloud Hosting

Enabling the generation of access logs will be exceptionally easy if you acquire a cloud hosting from our company. The Hepsia hosting Control Panel, provided with all of the accounts, features a section on different logs and that is where you shall find the access logs as well. 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 custom cloud hosting platform will start producing an access log for any of them as soon as you click on the On button, which you'll see on the right. If you don't require logs, disabling the option is just as simple and can be accomplished by clicking on the Off button in the same section. All of the logs are downloadable, which means that you can conveniently save and manage them on your desktop computer or notebook.

Access Log Manager in Semi-dedicated Servers

Our advanced web hosting platform shall generate access logs for each website hosted in a semi-dedicated server account, provided that this function is activated. All domain names and subdomains that you have will be listed inside the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, that we provide with all the accounts, so if you need our system to start creating logs for each of them, you should just click on the compact button on the right side of the respective domain/subdomain and switch the default Off option to On. You can disable this feature whenever you want by following the same steps. You'll find a Download link for every single log inside the very same section of the CP, so you could save the content produced by our system in .txt format with just a click. An existing log file may be downloaded even after the option has been disabled, so you will still be able to see the data that's already been generated.
