What are log files?
Raw log files are files that contain information about website visitor activity. Log files are created by web servers automatically. Each time a visitor requests any file (page, image, etc.) from the site information on his request is appended to a current log file. Most log files have text format and each log entry (hit) is saved as a line of text.
Log files can be powerful marketing tools. Every time a person visits your website, a log file is updated with the visitor’s information by the web server. These log files can be downloaded and used to generate useful statistics. eWebLog Analyzer can analyze these log files and tell you how visitors browse your web site, which pages they view and which they ignore, how long they spend on your site, and where they come from. If your web site is hosted by an Internet Service Provider (ISP), you should contact them for details of how to access your web log files. If you host your web site by yourself, you can check your web server documentation for where log files are located.
