Websites can be knocked offline by many different causes. Server or webmaster errors, DDoS attacks and even data center power failures can take your website out of commission.
Knowledge is power. The sooner you know there is a problem, the sooner you can begin finding a solution.
That’s why a comprehensive website monitoring program is so important for your business. And, as always, SiteUptime is dedicated to providing you with that system.
We help to ensure that your site is up and running when your customers visit.
And now, the best way to monitor your website’s uptime just got better. SiteUptime’s new API system gives you the freedom to control your monitors from anywhere. With the new SiteUptime Website Monitor API 2.0, you can easily make adjustments and changes to your website monitoring program—whether you are tracking a single website or hundreds.
Just set up your API using a remote custom script and then begin exploring the ways instant access and control can make your web monitoring even better.
Based on the easy to implement REST protocols and using JSON language, our new API provides your web development team with an array of options for monitoring and design. In addition to being able to add or change monitors, SiteUptime’s API 2.0 allows you to easily access and integrate monitoring statistics into your custom dashboard. You’ll be able to customize and implement new monitoring for each of your websites or clients efficiently using the new API 2.0.
SiteUptime’s API is available free with your Standard or Pro account. By using a straightforward REST API, SiteUptime has made it easy for developers to incorporate performance details and related information into their existing environments. Getting started is simple. Following our step-by-step instructions, your developer can have you connected and in control in no time.
To connect your application to SiteUptime’s service, you’ll need to first obtain an API Key. If you are a Standard or Pro User, just access your account and select the API button. If you aren’t already a Standard or Pro, you’ll need to upgrade before the next step.
Next, choose the APIv2.0 link and create an API key. You’ll need to include this API key in the ‘X-Auth-API-Key’ header or Basic HTTP Authentication password field each time to send an API request.
Once you have the API key, follow the instruction in our API documentation for quick implementation of the tasks you want and need. If you have questions, just contact our customer service center for fast and accurate assistance.
Minute count when your site is offline. According to Inc.com, downtime for a webstore is the “kiss of death.” Downtime costs include the loss of potential and future sales as consumers who can’t find what they want at your website will head elsewhere. Even for sites not dedicated to e-commerce downtime costs can add up quickly. Loss of production because employees can’t access data portals, tools, and apps are an unrecoverable cost.
The best approach to avoid downtime losses is a proactive one. Using SiteUptime Monitoring and integrating our data with your own instant-response plan allows you to minimize website downtimes.
Information is power. Our API system allows you to gather all the information you need in the format you want. Essential staff can be notified immediately when action needs to be taken and quickly review data using your business’s dashboard.
By integrating communications and information across our platform and yours you can get back up and running fast. Additionally, the option to download and integrate data allows you to identify trends and weaknesses across domains.
If you aren’t already a Standard or Pro User, now is the time to enroll. Start monitoring smarter with SiteUptime’s API 2.0.
