Easy-to-Read Analog Reports
Analog Contents
In a nutshell, Analog is a program to measure the usage on your web server or site. It compiles
all of the data stored in the raw log files (which are collected with each and every hit to your web site),
and reports which pages are most popular, which countries people are visiting from, which sites they
tried to follow broken links from, and all sorts of other useful information. Analog is also the most popular
log file analyzer program in the world. To learn more and see
a sample report, visit the Analog
web site.
Accessing Your Analog Report
To get to your Analog stats file (which compiles the last seven days of site statistics), go
to http://www.domain.com/logs in your web browser, replacing domain.com with your domain name.
Analog Broken Down
Overview of the other reports you'll find in the output:
- General Summary - This report contains overall statistics:
Figures in front of the parentheses refer to the period of time starting with the first day
raw logs are recorded for your site through the current date/time. Whereas, figures in the parentheses
refer to the 7-day period ending with the current date and time.
Successful requests: 30,000 (5,000) - requests for files (images, pages, scripts) with HTTP status
codes in the 200's (where the document was returned)
Average successful requests per day: 500 (800) - the number above divided by the number of daily
reports there are, to get the average number per day
Logfile lines without status code: 100 (0) - the number of logfile lines without a status code
Successful requests for pages: 100 (20) - same as successful requests, however only measures the
amount of page files returned (exludes image, script files, etc.)
Average successful requests for pages per day: 2 (2) - the number above divided by the number of daily
reports there are, to get the average number per day
Failed requests: 100 (20) - requests for files (images, pages, scripts) with HTTP status
codes in the 400's (error in request) or 500's (server error)
Redirected requests: 200 (40) - requests for files (images, pages, scripts) with HTTP status
codes in the 300's, indicating that the user was directed to a different file instead

the computer's browser and requested (does not include indirect requests resulting from the distinct
