Access Log Manager
What's the goal of the Access Log Manager? What kind of information will it provide you with?
An access log is a text file that contains an extensive report on all the files accessed by your website visitors. All the files which were requested in one way or another shall be included, so if you have a PHP script program and a website visitor opens only the home page, for example, you may find plenty of files inside the log. This is because there are resources on the home page which are embedded - parts of other webpages, pictures, and so forth. All of these files shall be listed within the access log, so that you can get a full picture of the way your Internet site performs. The information is in plain text format, so the logs are sometimes termed "raw data" too. An access log contains the name of every 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, including the referrer website, is oftentimes included as well. A log file could be processed by various desktop apps for statistical purposes as an addition to the web statistics created by your website hosting server.

domains and subdomains which you have. All it takes to allow the generation of access logs is to click on a button that'll be available next to each domain/subdomain.
