✅ Nginx Log:

Nginx log (e.g., /var/log/nginx/shifat-resl.wp1.site*.log) is like a diary for your website. It keeps track of who visits, what they do, and if there are any issues. Having Nginx logs is crucial because it helps you understand how your website is performing, who your visitors are, and if there are any errors or problems.

✅ Nginx Access Log:

Nginx Access Log (e.g., /var/log/nginx/shifat-resl.wp1.site-access.log) is more similar to Nginx Log. The log notes down details like who visited your site, what pages they looked at, and when they visited & gives you insights into your website’s traffic and helps you make decisions about how to improve your site.

✅ Nginx Error Log:

The Nginx error log (e.g., /var/log/nginx/shifat-resl.wp1.site-error.log) is a record of errors that occur on your Nginx web server. It keeps track of any problems or issues that happen while your website is running.
