An access log is a text file which contains an extensive report on all of the files accessed by your Internet site visitors. All the files that were requested in one way or another shall be included, so if you have a PHP script application and a visitor opens just the home page, for instance, you may find plenty of files inside the log. It is because there are things on the home page which are embedded - parts of other web pages, graphics, and so on. All these files will be listed within the access log, so that you can get a full picture of the way your website performs. The info is in plain text format, so the logs are sometimes referred to as "raw data" too. An access log provides the name of each requested file, the path to it, the date it was accessed, and also the user’s IP address, world-wide web browser and Operating System. More information, like the referrer Internet site, is sometimes supplied as well. A log file could be processed by various desktop applications for statistical purposes as an addition to the web statistics created by your website hosting server.
