TLDR: you should be using website monitoring!
So you’ve worked hard, and rolled out that website / store in order for people to find you and buy your goods / services.
You’ve done your research, developed your products, perfected them and you are confident – that the customer will choose you over the others!
You already have the best automatic backup for your droplets!
But, what are you doing to make sure your website is available on those crucial times in which a customer searches for you?
Web servers are sometimes down
Sometimes, web servers are down. This can have many causes – some of which are planned down times (by your host) and sometimes unplanned down times.
Websites may get stuck – after all – it is software and software may become stuck. When this happens, ask yourself “will I know about it, or will it take a customer to tell me something is wrong after 5 days have passed”, during which your website was broken and you didn’t make any money.
Website Monitoring is the act of keeping track of a website being up. Image a bot that tries your website every 5 mins, searching for some key phrase and if it is not found, sending you an e-mail alert.
We also test to see if your SSL certificate is expiring soon – again – to avoid times in which your website us unavailable or displaying frightening messages to the client “this website is insecure” “beware of hackers stealing your data” etc.
Automatic Website Monitoring + automatic SSL Expiry checks are included in our one and only unlimited package.
You can even choose to automatically restart the droplet if a test fails!
we believe in giving your the best service and product so we don’t offer any lesser packages. Its the best or nothing!
