An access log is a thorough list of all the files that were accessed by the guests of a particular Internet site. Every file which was requested in some way shall be listed, so if you have only one page with 3 embedded images, one video and one embedded text file, for example, the access log shall contain a total of 6 entries - one for every of the six files which were accessed when the website visitor opened the page. A log usually shows the file name and path, the date, in addition to the visitor’s Operating System, Internet browser and IP address. In some cases you could also find the referrer sites that sent the visitors to your site. The info which an access log file provides is in human-readable plain text format. It could be processed by special software on a personal computer and used to write reports on the functionality of an Internet site, aside from the web statistics your web hosting server may have produced.
