- How can I see response times for each check?
Unfortunately we do not keep records for individual response times when our checks are successful. Rather we just record a daily average. However, for any failed check we do record individual response times and make these available in the monitor reports.

A service monitor is defined as any device or service you set up to be monitored. For example if you want to monitor http on your web site, that counts as 1 monitor. If you have 3 service monitors available, you could monitor 3 services on 1 web site, i.e. http, smtp, pop3 OR you could monitor h ...
- How do you determine if a server or website is "up"?
Our system checks the server response code from your website or server. If there is no response, our system will verify the failure using an alternate monitoring location and send an alert. By default, if your server responds with a code of "200", "301", "302", or "403" your monitor is consider ...
- How does email monitoring work?
Our email monitoring does not send an email or receive a test email from your mail server. With both our SMTP and POP mail server monitoring basically our monitoring server connects to the specified mail server and does a "handshake" greeting. If the mail server responds then we report it as up ...

Detailed statistics for each monitor are kept for 2 months for our free plans and for the life of the account for our paid plans.
- How is the average response time measured?
The Average Response Time (per day for example) is an average of the individual response times measured during that day. So each time we check your web site (or URL) we record the time it takes for the server to respond to our request. This is the first byte response time. Then we average that ...

Each API session key lasts 30 minutes before a new authorization key is required. You can find out more about our API here: http://www.siteuptime.com/api.php
- I got an alert that my site was down but when I checked it was up?
The most common cause for such an anomaly would be a network type issue. When you check the failure logs you will likely see errors like "cannot connect", "unable to connect", and similar. So we were not even reaching the web server to get a response (like an HTTP error code or similar.) Also th ...
- I want to remove an outage from my reports, is this possible?
Yes, just let us know the time and the date of the outage and we will remove it.
- My failure log shows "Connection Refused", what does this error mean?
This error means that the connection to your web site or server was actively denied. This usually results when a web site or server is protected by a firewall or the server reaches its connections limit and drops or denies the connection from our system.
