Web Hosting - How to View Your Website's Usage Statistics
We provide web usage statistics for all web accounts (both Windows and Linux). We use a tool called AWStats to show you this data. You can see statistics for the past 12 months. We remove data that is more than one year old.
NOTE for CDN Static Hosting: CloudFront access logging is disabled by default in AWS. However, customers can request that we enable S3 directed logs if you have a use case.
