An access log features a record of all files that have been requested by the visitors while exploring your website. The list is comprehensive, so when you have a web page with 2 embedded images, for example, all of the three files will be in the log, not only the page. An access log typically contains the date, the Operating System, the 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, which is also typically called "raw data", is an addition to the web stats which you commonly get with a hosting account, not a replacement. A good example why you could need this sort of a log is if you intend 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 standard graphs and tables which come with the server-generated website stats.
Access Log Manager in Shared Hosting
If you purchase a shared hosting from our company, you'll be able to choose if access logs have to be produced and for which domains or subdomains in your account this must be done. You can activate this feature from the Access/Error Logs section of the Hepsia Control Panel, incorporated with all shared accounts. Each 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 conveniently enable or disable the generation of access logs independently for each website that you have. You could save a log to your personal computer by clicking on the Download link that you will see inside the same section of the Control Panel. The link will be available even if you disable the log generation, so you shall still have access to the data collected by our system.

Enabling or disabling the generation of access logs is as basic as pressing this button and the change shall take effect instantly. You could save the logs in .txt format by clicking on the Download link in the same section. The latter shall be available all of the time, even if you deactivate the function for a certain domain or subdomain.
