An access log is a thorough list of all the files that were accessed by the visitors of a certain Internet site. Each and every file that was requested for whatever reason will be listed, so if you have just one webpage 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 any of the six files that were accessed when the visitor opened the webpage. A log normally provides 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 info an access log file provides is in human-readable plain text format. It can also be processed by special software on a desktop machine and used to prepare reports on the overall performance of a site, besides the web stats which your server may have created.
