An access log is a detailed list of all the files that were accessed by the visitors of a certain site. Every single file which was requested in some way shall be listed, so if you have a single webpage with three embedded pictures, one video and one embedded text file, for example, the access log will contain a total of six entries - one for any of the six files which were accessed when the visitor opened the page. A log usually contains the file name and path, the date, as well as the visitor’s Operating System, worldwide web browser and IP address. Sometimes you may also find the referrer sites that sent the visitors to your site. The information which an access log file includes is in human-readable plain text format. It may be processed by special software on a laptop or computer and used to prepare reports on the functionality of an Internet site, aside from the web stats that your web hosting server may have generated.
