Website uptime check
An uptime check asks whether a website answers right now. This one sends a single request to the address you enter and shows the HTTP status code, the time until the reply began, and every redirect on the way, up to five. It is one check when you ask, not a running watch.
FAQ
Uptime check: questions
2xx means the page answered normally, 3xx is a redirect to another address, 4xx means the request was refused or the page was not found, and 5xx means the server failed while answering.
The check times our server’s request to the first byte of the reply, including the connection and the secure handshake. Your browser is somewhere else, and it also loads the page’s images, styles and scripts.
It follows up to five redirects, and only to public addresses on ports 80 and 443. A longer chain, or a redirect to a private or reserved address, stops the check.
It means the server answered our request. A site can still fail for some visitors, for example through a DNS problem on one network.
Our Terms of Service (§8, Service level agreement) set a 99.9% uptime target, excluding scheduled maintenance, force majeure, client-side issues and the other cases listed there.
