Author: 5 Benefits Of Server Monitoring
This short article shows you how server monitoring can help you succeed online.
1. You know your site is down before your customers do
Nothing is more embarrassing than a customer calling you asking why your website doesn’t work if they call at all. A website monitoring service alerts you as soon as it detects an error so that you can react immediately for example by calling your host before your customers notice the error.
2. Server monitoring saves you money
Some web monitoring firms charge for their service but consider it an investment: It could cost you a lot of money if your site goes down without you noticing. On the web most customers have a short attention span: If they try to reach your site and it can’t be opened most of them don’t come back later they simply try another site.
3. You get informed about link errors
Nobody has time to constantly check their website: A good network monitoring service will not only check if your site is up but it will also let you know if there are any problems with your internal links for example if there are dead links or database errors.
4. It can help you make a decision about your webhosting provider
If your site goes down several times a day you might have to talk with your webhosting provider or consider changing providers. You might not notice these errors without an uptime monitoring service.
5. Some server monitoring services are even free
OK I admit it here comes a shameless plug for my own monitoring service. But I guess it’s not too bad because it’s completely free there is no paid option. And it even checks your internal links for errors. So if you’re interested check it out at
