Site Uptime: You “AIN’T” Making no Money With A Down site
- 2 Comment
The time that your website is up depends on the web site host. Good network administrators are a must. However, to give you peace of mind of that 99.9% uptime, track it yourself.
Yesterday, I called Hostgator and was complaining about my sites being down! Man down Man down! They quickly tested worldwide response with a service called InternetSupervision. The service was able to hit my server from various worldwide servers and report back that it was up and running with good speed.
My issue: Wireless internet connection riding in a car that was proceeding through dense Atlanta, GA pine trees. My servers were fine!
So, in this quick hit post, know and understand your own server uptime. InternetSupervision provides a free service that allows checking of your server ever 15 minutes for 90 days and then once a day after that time period. However, with great prices starting at like $3 a month, it is called “PEACE OF MIND”.
Check them out!

Pretty cool feature… For me, I have to “webmaster” all of my sites. So I need the piece of mind that my servers are up.
I am a HUGE fan of hostgator… even though I give them Hell about my sites and service, if you are reading Hostgator, I am a big fan
Thanks for your comment Mwangi!
