SiteUptime

Pretty useful tool to check to see if your server is up and running. It's free. Your hosting company typically provides you a mechanism to see if your server is up and running, but the company's network might be having a problem. The company might not notice that your server isn't accessible in that case. This is when SiteUptime becomes very useful ...

It appears that my hosting company had some problem in its network a short while ago, and I was not able to access my server. Since the company was able to access the server, I did not get any notification email from them, but SiteUptime sent me a notification email and informed me of the problem ...

Hey Stoli,

Oh... I like that tool! Do you have a link?

Sadly, my hosting company is frequently down... like two times a months or more... and those are just the times I catch myself! I'd be curious to know how often my sites are down and I don't see it!

"Down" means many things, and hosting companies often say that "down" means that the entire server is completely locked up, i.e., you can't even ping. However, "down" means something different to webmasters. If web server is not responding, it's "down." You need to check http content in order to see if web server is not responding. SiteUptime can do that for you.

I use siteuptime.
But I get plenty of downtime messages even when i am accessing the site.
Maybe the server location is bad.
