# Overview

> Visitor stats, error logs, bandwidth, and CloudLinux resource limits. Everything cPanel surfaces about who's hitting your site and what it's costing you.

cPanel's Metrics section answers two questions: who's hitting your site, and what is it costing in CPU, RAM, and bandwidth. Most tools here are read-only views into log data the server already collects.
