Instantly check the server status, availability, and response time of any website. Find out if it's down for everyone or just you.
Check website status
Enter a domain name below — we'll test it in real time
How do you check if a website is down?
Our monitoring tool sends a direct HTTP request from our servers to the target domain. We measure the response code, IP address, and server response time. Results are cached for 5 minutes before a new live ping is triggered.
What does "down for everyone" vs "just me" mean?
If our monitoring server cannot reach the site, it's down for everyone globally. If our server reaches it but you cannot, the issue is local — typically your browser cache, DNS, VPN, ISP routing, or geographic region.
What is DNS lookup time?
DNS lookup time is how long it takes to resolve a domain name like example.com into an IP address. High DNS times can signal registrar outages, misconfigured nameservers, or propagation delays.
What do HTTP status codes mean?
200 OK — site is online. 3xx — redirect (normal for HTTP→HTTPS). 4xx — client errors (404 = not found). 5xx — server errors (500, 503, 504) indicate the service is genuinely down or overloaded.
How often are status checks updated?
Popular websites are automatically monitored every 5 minutes from our servers. When you search for a domain manually, a fresh check is triggered immediately and cached for 5 minutes.
