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 comprehensive, so if you have a webpage with 2 embedded images, for instance, all of the three files shall be in the log, not only the page. An access log normally features the date, the Operating System, the browser and the IP address for each file in human-readable form, so you can get an idea about the most popular files on your Internet site. The log, that's also typically named "raw data", is an addition to the web data that you commonly get with a hosting account, not an alternative. One example why you may need this kind of a log is if you would like to use some software on your computer to prepare a report about the website’s efficiency, but you don't want to use the conventional graphs and tables that come with the server-generated website statistics.

Our custom-built Hepsia Control Panel includes a section dedicated to various logs and the access logs are one of them. When you sign in to your web hosting account and visit this section, you will find a list of all the domain names and subdomains you have. All it takes to allow the generation of access logs is to click on a button which will be available next to each and every domain/subdomain. If the option is active, you shall see a download link along with the file size so far, so you will be able to save the file to your personal computer and view it or process it with some app. Enabling or disabling the logs takes effect immediately, so if you no longer need one, you could stop it with simply a click from the very same section of the Control Panel. You will still be able to access the already created content by clicking on the Download link.
