The checks behind our uptime monitoring
We focus on the signals that tell us if your website is available, stable and ready for your visitors.
Checks your site every 30 seconds
We check your website every 30 seconds. That means downtime can be spotted quickly, giving you earlier warning before anything is affected.
We check from Europe, Asia, North America and Australia. This helps show whether the issue is local, regional, or affecting visitors more widely.
Detects slow or broken responses
We look for more than a basic page load. Slow, failed or broken responses can be flagged when your site is online but not working properly.
We use three uptime monitors to reduce false reporting. That helps filter out noise and makes alerts more useful when a real availability issue appears.
