As webmasters, we all know that website downtime can be a major issue for our users and ultimately, our business. But do you actively monitor downtime on your website?
Some webmasters might argue that monitoring downtime is not necessary if you have a reliable hosting provider. Others might argue that even the most reliable hosting providers can experience downtime, and it's important to be proactive in identifying and addressing any issues.
Personally, I believe that monitoring downtime is essential for any website, regardless of the hosting provider. It allows you to quickly identify any issues and address them before they become major problems.
So, what are your thoughts? Do you actively monitor downtime on your website, and if so, how do you go about it? And if you don't monitor downtime, why not? Let's discuss!
I use Uptime Robot which sends me emails immediately when my server goes offline which it did today because of a 500 internal server error. It only took 5 minutes but I was notified nonetheless.
