An access log is a detailed list of all the files which were accessed by the visitors of a given website. Every file which was requested for some reason shall be listed, so if you have a single page with three embedded pics, one video and one embedded text file, as an example, the access log will contain a total of six entries - one for any of the six files that were accessed when the visitor opened the page. A log usually shows the file name and path, the date, along with the visitor’s Operating System, web browser and IP address. Sometimes you can also find the referrer websites that sent the visitors to your site. The information that an access log file features is in human-readable plain text format. It may be processed by special software on a PC and used to write reports on the overall performance of a website, besides the web stats which your web hosting server may have generated.
