Access Log Manager
What's the goal of the Access Log Manager? What type of information will it supply you with?
An access log is a detailed list of all the files which were accessed by the visitors of a given Internet site. Every single file which was requested for some reason shall be listed, so if you have only one page with three embedded pics, one video and one embedded text file, for example, the access log will contain a total of six entries - one for every of the 6 files which were accessed when the website visitor opened the page. A log normally contains the file name and path, the date, as well as the visitor’s Operating System, web browser and IP address. Oftentimes you could also find the referrer Internet sites that sent the visitors to your Internet site. The information which an access log file provides is in human-readable plain text format. It can also be processed by special software on a personal computer and used to prepare reports on the overall performance of a site, in addition to the web statistics which your server may have produced.
