Site Analytics generates reports based on the analysis of log files, real-time data, or both. Each day at a regularly scheduled interval, Site Analytics reads the log file generated by the Web server hosting your site and makes appropriate updates. If our Javascript is installed on each page of your site, real-time data is processed throughout the day.

In addition, Site Analytics lets you access these log files yourself to conduct further analysis. The log files are archived and exposed in the Log File Archive.

You access the archive through the Logs menu.  Click archive.zip to download a zip archive containing all log files. Click on the corresponding file name in the list to download the log file for the specified date (exyymmdd.log).   Note: Windows Shared Hosting servers use the current date, while Linux Shared Hosting servers use the next day's date.
