About UptimeRobot
UptimeRobot checks websites, APIs and servers and alerts you when they go down. It also offers status pages that you can share with your users.
What it does
UptimeRobot runs checks on your sites at regular intervals and sends an alert when a check fails. Monitor types include HTTP(S) endpoints, keywords, ping, ports, cron jobs, DNS records and SSL certificates. Notifications can go to email, SMS, Slack and other tools you already use. You can also publish public status pages, which show visitors the current state of your services without them having to ask.
