Keeping Tabs on Your Hosting Company
Overview
Once you've chosen a hosting company for your websites or blogs, there's often a period of anxious waiting for potential issues to arise. This isn't necessarily due to hosting companies being unreliable, but rather because of the negative press surrounding the hosting industry, which can make webmasters a bit cautious.
Web Hosting Decision-Making
With so many web hosting services available today, making an informed choice can feel overwhelming. However, once you've committed to a host, it's crucial to ensure they deliver on promises like 99.9% uptime. Many assume their sites are always accessible, but issues like downtime can occur when you're not monitoring. Frequent errors can deter visitors, making it vital to keep track of your host’s performance.
Monitoring Your Host's Performance
Regularly monitoring your host ensures they live up to their service guarantees. If downtime exceeds the promised level, you might be eligible for compensation. Always check the company’s terms of service, but remember, you’ll need evidence to support any claims.
Tools for Monitoring
If you experience excessive downtime, it might be time to switch hosts. For occasional outages, documenting occurrences can strengthen your position when addressing issues with the company. Utilize free third-party applications to monitor performance easily. I use two services: one for compiling regular reports and another for real-time alerts when a site goes down. Downtime Witness offers a free service, with a registration key available through the provided link.
Additionally, consider using a service like host-tracker.com for comprehensive reporting.
By staying proactive, you can ensure your website remains accessible and maintain a solid relationship with your hosting company.
