Web Hosting General

What is a website monitoring service and what should I track?

Website monitoring continuously checks your site availability and performance, alerting you instantly when it goes down — before customers notice. Key metrics to monitor: Uptime (is the site responding?), TTFB (Time to First Byte — server response speed), full page load time, SSL certificate expiry, domain expiry date, and broken links. Free monitoring tools: UptimeRobot (5-minute checks, email/SMS/Slack alerts, status page), Freshping (1-minute checks, 50 monitors free), StatusCake (daily reports). Paid options for business-critical sites: Pingdom, Datadog Synthetics. Set up monitoring immediately after launching a site — you want to know before customers complain. Configure at minimum: HTTP/HTTPS uptime check + alert to your mobile. For Connect Quest VPS/dedicated: install Netdata for server-level metrics (CPU, RAM, disk). Connect Quest's infrastructure monitoring runs 24/7 and their NOC responds to alerts. Add external monitoring at connectquest.co.in.
