How much time ago did you verify your website (and also network and servers)? Do you scheduling your website monitoring jobs in any way? Can you be sure your website is up at this moment?

Doing a complete reload… Being in luck for now! But are you sure it was available yesterday, last week, or last month? Most hosting providers grant you a 99.9% uptime. Well, I would prefer to know this guaranteed.

Imagine that your prospective clients came to your website in time it’s unexpectedly not available. They see strange error message or simply empty page. How do you think, how many of them will depart and will never come again? Well, maybe some of them will perform an attempt later.
