An error log is a listing of the error messages and warnings which appeared for one reason or another while your visitors were looking through your website. This sort of a log features raw info on the way the web server has addressed requests in various situations. An error message could appear if, for instance, a link leads to a site or a file that's not on the hosting server, if the code on a certain page can't be processed, if any individual is trying to access the site or its back office through an IP address that's blocked by an .htaccess rule and many others. The info in the error log offers the IP of the visitor, what error message appeared and the reason for the hosting server to display it, the entire path to the file that caused the error and the specific time of the event. Having this information will allow you to learn if any part of your website has a problem, which you could then take care of. For that reason, your site visitors will have a better experience and you may boost the website for optimum performance.
