An access log contains a record of all the files which have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your site. The list is thorough, so if you have a webpage with two embedded images, for example, all of the three files shall be in the log, not just the page. An access log typically features the date, the OS, the web browser and the IP address for every file in human-readable form, so you can get a good idea about the hottest files on your Internet site. The log, that's also commonly named "raw data", is an addition to the web stats which you commonly get with a hosting account, not a substitute. An illustration why you may require this type of a log is if you would like to use some software on your computer system to prepare a report about the website’s efficiency, but you don't want to use the conventional graphs and tables which come with the server-generated web statistics.

As you go there, you'll see a list of all the domains hosted within the account and the subdomains created for them.
