FAQ

UptyBots automatically checks your website and notifies you if it becomes unavailable, so you don’t have to manually test it yourself.

Yes. Add multiple websites, subdomains, and services to a single dashboard to manage all your monitoring in one place.

Some outages or partial failures affect users immediately but don’t trigger simple checks. Multi-step and synthetic monitoring helps catch these cases.

Common mistakes include relying on a single monitoring type, ignoring SSL/domain expiry, not monitoring IPv6, and misconfiguring notifications.

HTTP checks web page responses, TCP verifies if a port is reachable, and Ping checks basic server connectivity. Combining them ensures full uptime coverage.

Ping only tests basic connectivity. Websites and APIs can fail without affecting ping. Combining Ping with HTTP, TCP, and API checks detects real issues.

Yes. Some users access your site over IPv6 only. Monitoring both ensures your website works for all visitors.

Enable automated SSL monitoring. UptyBots alerts you before certificates expire, so you can renew them on time and avoid service interruptions.

Track domain expiration dates with automated alerts. This ensures you never lose your website due to an expired domain.

Add API or endpoint checks for critical third-party services to ensure your website’s functionality isn’t disrupted by external failures.

Use high-frequency checks. This captures short outages that might be invisible to standard monitoring.

Synthetic API monitoring can simulate real user flows and detect failures in complex transactions like checkout processes.

Yes. Differences in IPv6, DNS resolution, and carrier networks can cause issues only for mobile users. Multi-location monitoring helps catch these.

Downtime and slow response times hurt SEO rankings. Monitoring helps ensure consistent uptime and faster page loads, boosting search performance.

Synthetic monitoring simulates real user flows and multi-step transactions, helping detect issues that simple HTTP or Ping checks might miss.

UptyBots lets you configure notifications per monitor and choose multiple alert channels, such as email, Telegram, or Webhook.

UptyBots lets you pause individual monitors temporarily during deployments, so no alerts are sent while you’re updating your site or services.

Even minutes of downtime can cause revenue loss, user frustration, and SEO penalties. You can estimate the potential cost using our Downtime Cost Calculator. Monitoring helps minimize these risks and protect your reputation.

Yes! Invite friends and fully cover your monitoring needs. Use referral credits to scan websites without topping up your balance.

No. All costs are transparent. Paid plans cover all features included in the plan, and there are no unexpected charges.

UptyBots takes security seriously. All sensitive data is encrypted at rest and in transit, and access is strictly controlled.

We use industry-standard TLS for data in transit and AES-256 encryption for data at rest to ensure maximum protection.

Yes. Only you have access to your monitors and data — no one else can view or modify them.

We respect user privacy and handle data responsibly. For specific compliance requirements like GDPR or CCPA, please review our privacy policy.

We offer simple, practical tools for quick checks of your website, SSL certificates, and server status. These utilities are not meant for full-scale monitoring — for automated scans, real-time alerts, and managing multiple monitors, please use the UptyBots dashboard.

Use our Downtime Cost Calculator to quickly estimate financial losses based on average cost per hour and downtime duration.

Yes. Our Downtime Calculator lets you see how much time your site may have been unavailable over a chosen period, helping plan maintenance and improve reliability.

Use the 'Is my site down?' tool to instantly check accessibility and identify potential issues.

Our HTTP and API Status Code Explainers help you understand each status code and its impact on site availability.

Yes. The SSL Expiry Countdown tool lets you monitor SSL certificate expiration dates to avoid warnings or downtime.

A status widget is a small embeddable component that displays the real-time status of your service or monitor directly on your website.

Embedding a status widget improves transparency, reduces support requests, and helps users quickly understand whether an issue is on their side or yours.

Yes. The widget automatically updates whenever the monitor status changes, without requiring any manual refresh or maintenance.

No. The widget is lightweight, read-only, and designed to have minimal impact on page load times.

Yes. You can use the same embed code on multiple pages or websites without any additional configuration.

Yes. The widget only displays public status information and does not expose sensitive data or allow any interaction with your account.

No. Simply copy the embed code and paste it into your website’s HTML where you want the widget to appear.

You can choose from several predefined widget styles to match your website layout and design.
