An access log features a record of all the files which have been requested by the visitors while surfing around your website. The list is thorough, so if you have a web page with two embedded images, for instance, all of the three files will be in the log, not just the page. An access log typically contains the date, the OS, the browser and the IP address for each and every file in human-readable form, so you can get a more complete picture about the most popular files on your Internet site. The log, that is also commonly named "raw data", is an addition to the web statistics that you commonly get with a hosting account, not a substitute. An illustration why you may need this sort of a log is if you intend to use some software on your personal computer to prepare a report about the website’s overall performance, but you do not want to use the regular graphs and tables that come with the server-generated site statistics.
