Uptime Monitoring

Uptime Monitoring is a critical feature of PingWeb that ensures your website remains operational and accessible to users at all times. By continuously checking your website's status, uptime monitoring helps you detect and respond to any downtime or performance issues promptly.

How Uptime Monitoring Works

Uptime monitoring works by sending automated requests to your website at regular intervals from multiple locations worldwide. These requests simulate user interactions and assess various performance metrics, such as:

  • Server Response Time: The time it takes for your server to respond to a request.
  • Page Load Speed: The time it takes for your website's pages to load.
  • Overall Availability: Whether your website is up and running or experiencing downtime.

By conducting these checks at one-minute intervals, our monitoring system provides real-time insights into your website's operational status. If any issues are detected, such as your website being down or experiencing slow performance, immediate alerts are triggered.

Setting Up Uptime Monitoring

  • Log In to Your Dashboard:
    • After logging in to PingWeb, navigate to the "Monitors" section in the left-hand menu.

  • Save and Activate:
    • Once you have configured the settings, save the monitor. PingWeb will start monitoring your website's uptime immediately.

Real-Time Alerts

When PingWeb detects an issue with your website, it triggers an alert to notify you. These alerts include detailed information about the nature of the issue, the time of occurrence, and the affected components of your website. By receiving these alerts promptly, you can quickly diagnose and address any problems to minimize downtime and ensure a seamless user experience.
