What exactly does "uptime" mean in reference to your website? Uptime means the number of hours your website is operational and available to users.
Uptime is generally measured as a percentage and calculated in monthly or yearly increments. The calculation is a ratio of the time available divided by the total time. Industry-standard of 99.9% is considered a very reliable uptime with 99.99%, or "four nines," considered an excellent uptime.
Why is Uptime Monitoring Important?
In addition, "Site issues such as slow loading pages, malfunctioning web applications, and downtime have issues beyond the immediate problem. Sites with issues also experience lower search engine rankings, increased bounce rates, higher cart abandonment rates, reduced user engagement/retention, and decreased customer satisfaction." ~ Uptrends
Monitoring your website for uptime is a critical metric that must not be overlooked.
