Monitor

Website down alerts that arrive before your customers’ emails do.

A website-down alert is exactly what it sounds like: the probe that was answering suddenly did not, and the next minute you know. SiteGuardian sends one email per outage and one recovery email per come-back. Your inbox stays quiet when nothing is wrong.

  • One loud email the minute the URL stops answering. No dashboard login required.
  • Probes every minute on the Pro tier; every five minutes on Starter and Lifetime.
  • Probes from multiple regions so a single CDN hiccup does not falsely trip the alert.
  • Recovery email the second the URL answers again. So you know when to stop worrying.
  • No app to install on your site. SiteGuardian watches from the outside, like a visitor.

How it works

Setup, in three beats.

  1. Step 01

    Add the URL that would ruin a Tuesday afternoon

    Paste your home page or the page that sends revenue. The one you would not want offline. Pick a slow threshold in plain English. SiteGuardian starts probing inside the next minute.

  2. Step 02

    Add the second URL that matters

    Any shop has more than one page worth watching. /about, /contact, a landing page from a recent campaign. SiteGuardian treats each URL independently and routes outputs to the same inbox.

  3. Step 03

    Let your inbox be the dashboard

    When something stops answering, you get one email. When it recovers, you get another. Boring safeguard passes its own test: set up once, the inbox stays quiet for weeks at a time.

What the alert actually says

One email. One URL. One timestamp.

Your URL https://example.com/ answered with HTTP 502 at 14:38 UTC. The probe will retry in 60 seconds.
