Appreciate the response. Yes many options exist and all pretty much due similar thing. As far as integration - there is no integration needed. Nothing is being installed. You just enter the website address and it starts monitoring it.

So it works like this : every 15 minutes (default but can be set to as low as 10 seconds by the user) it goes and checks the status of the site to ensure it is up and running. Every hour it does a visual inspection of the site and if it detects 50% or greater change visually from before it will alert the user.

The alert method is email and SMS is being added. Hope that clarifies some things

Thanks for feedback and yes you’re right a lot of this is missing because I wanted to launch the MVP versions. Regarding #3 I can tell you there is no integration needed. The system does not integrate with anything and there’s nothing to install on your end. Regarding the support and tutorial or in depth explanation those are all things I am working on.

 

For any of you entrepreneurs that have an online website presence or even if your site is your main source of income - have you ever considered a website monitor service? I recently launched a mvp of my software that monitors websites to ensure they are up and running and alerts you if an issue is detected. Also every hour it does a visual inspection of the page to see if more than 50% of content was changed and alerts you (in case it’s hacked)

I’m just looking to see if such service would be something of interest and if so what features would you want to see.

My idea of the tool is something that you set and forget. I don’t want it to be another tool that you have to always log into and track etc etc.

I’m really trying to learn the must have and even the nice to have features to grow this product.

 

Launched my mvp of web monitoring tool - sitestability

The tool monitors webpage and alerts the user if it detects if the site is down. Besides the usual http status codes it also runs a hourly check against major visual changes and alerts users if it is detected (greater than 50% but that value may change)

Last week one of our wordpress sites was hacked and random code was inserted and main page was changed to say under maintanence but still up and running. We had no idea how long it had been down and neither did the marketing agency in charge of it. So I created http://sitestability.com

Would love feedback - I’m looking to add more features and appreciate to find out what you would look for in such tool.

SMS and other integrations are coming soon. My tool has no limits on number of emails or users to receive alerts nor will it for sms.

The idea of my tool is to set it and forget it. It’s not meant to be logged into constantly to view stats. Instead it’s meant for you to go about your day and know that the tool will alert and notify you of issues detected.

Try it out 14 day free trial no credit card required. I would love to hear what features or extras you would want in such tool and if it would be beneficial to you.
