Web Monitoring: Detect Problems Before Your Customers
Is your website working right now? Are you sure? The importance of having 24/7 alert systems.
It’s 3 AM on a Saturday and your server goes down. No one notices until Monday at 9. You’ve lost two days of sales and reputation.
This is avoided with web monitoring.
What do we monitor?
- Uptime: Checking every minute if the site responds.
- Speed: Detecting if the site suddenly becomes slow.
- Broken Links: Alerting if an important page gives a 404 error.
- SSL Certificates: Alerting before they expire.
Peace of Mind
As a professional, I use tools that send a notification to my phone if something goes wrong with my clients’ projects. Often, I can fix the problem before the client even knows it existed.
Cost vs Benefit
The cost of monitoring tools is negligible compared to the cost of having your business digitally closed for hours or days.
Conclusion
You can’t manage what you don’t measure. Proactive monitoring is the difference between a hobby and a professional business.
