# Logs

The **Updates feed** on each website's detail page is the
log of everything we've done with your site — changes,
fixes, deployments, maintenance entries, status events.
The left column on Websites → click a website is the live
view.

## What appears in the feed

Each entry has a short title, a timestamp, and a longer
description if there's more context. Common entry types:

- **Deployments** — when we've pushed a new version of the
  site, or applied a content update you asked for.
- **Maintenance entries** — scheduled tasks we've run
  (updates, backups, security checks). See
  [Maintenance](maintenance) for what's covered by your
  plan.
- **Incident updates** — when the site has had an issue,
  we post the timeline here as we work through it.
- **Configuration changes** — DNS, SSL renewals, server
  tweaks.
- **Notes from us** — anything we want on the record (e.g.
  "removed cached files for redeploy", "confirmed contact
  form working after report").

## Reading the feed

Entries are newest first. Each is independently dated —
you can scroll back as far as the site's history goes.
There's no automatic archival; everything stays in the
feed indefinitely.

If you're trying to find a specific change, the simplest
path is to scroll to roughly when you remember it
happening. We don't currently expose a search inside the
feed.

## What's not in the feed

The Updates feed is the **what we did** log. A few things
that look log-shaped but live elsewhere:

- **Visitor analytics** (sessions, pages viewed, traffic
  sources). That data lives in **Google Analytics** if
  it's linked to your site (visible in the Information
  card on the website detail page). We don't duplicate
  Analytics inside the portal — the Google interface is
  better suited to it.
- **Server access logs** (raw HTTP requests). These exist
  on the hosting side but aren't exposed in the customer
  portal. If you need them — for a security incident, a
  forensic question, debugging a specific request — ask
  us and we'll extract the relevant slice.
- **Search-engine performance**. That's the
  [SEO reports](../seo-reports) — separate from the
  day-to-day updates feed.

## Why we keep this kind of log

Two reasons:

- **For you** — so you can see what's happening to your
  site without having to ask. If you're trying to remember
  when we did X, or whether we did Y last month, the feed
  is the record.
- **For us** — it's the project history we work from when
  diagnosing issues. When a problem shows up, the first
  thing we look at is what changed recently. The feed is
  the source of truth.

If you ever spot something that's gone live without
appearing in the feed, tell us — we may have missed
logging it.
