Check if a Website is down


Today I have collected a list of sites that could be tell you “if a website is really down” or “website doesn’t load just for you”. Out of the below listed websites my favorite is “DownForEveryoneOrJustMe”. Although the other websites cannot be under-estimated, some of them have really cool interfaces. Rather than installing softwares like Pingdom to check for availability of a website, using these online services are more precise methods.

DownForEveryoneOrJustMe

Uff, pretty long name isn’t it, but you don’t need to remember it, because whenever you search for websites to check downtime, this site is going to be in the top of search result. This is such a popular and widely used service to check website availability. Check out the site here.

DownOrJustForMe

Yet another same kind of service with almost the same name. Down Or Just For Me, although is not the most visited site, it still preferred by some of the people. The site looks almost like a clone of the previous site but with a background and a flash button. The site however has another advantage, it doesn’t redirect you to another page to show the result, it displays in the same page. Check out the site here.

IsThatSiteDown

Apart from just a single website downtime checker, this site has added a new but not so interesting feature. You can check the availability of popular sites in one button click , the sites included in that one click check are Youtube, Google, Facebook, Yahoo, Wikipedia, Twitter, Ask, WordPress, Blogger and Rapidshare. Check out the site here.

CheckSite.us

Another clean and simple interface service to check your website downtime, not much features included in it, but the advantage is that it does not navigate to a new page to show the results, loved the Ajax effect. Check out the site here.

    I disagree with your review about Checksite. It has more features than all of them. If a website is down you can have it e-mail (or text) you when the site comes back up. Plus it supports URLS, IP addresses and ports.

    Of course, whether a website is down or not really depends on more than what these services can do. Still, checksite is a good service.
