and application improvement. Each software program that is
capable of creating a log has different methods of starting or
stopping the log creation.
An example of a software log file can be found in the

Many web pages, including Computer Hope keeps logs of what pages
users access, any errors that occur, how people are viewing the page,
and more. These logs help the owners of the web page keep track of
popular sections of their web page, know if something needs to be
fixed or updated, what may be missing, etc.
Google Analytics is a great example of a free service that
monitors this information.
Note: Computer Hope does not distribute
or share its logs with any users or third-party companies.
