Is the website down for everyone or just me?
That is the most common question people ask when a site stops loading. Sometimes a website is completely down for everyone around the world, and sometimes it is only your connection, your browser cache, or your internet provider causing the problem. This tool checks the site from an external server so you can tell the difference instantly.
Just paste any URL into the box above and hit check. You will see whether the site is responding, how fast it responded, and the HTTP status code it returned. The whole check takes just a couple of seconds.
Frequently asked questions
What does a 200 status code mean?
A 200 status code means the server responded successfully. The website is up and working normally. Any status code in the 200 range means things are good.
What does a 404 error mean?
A 404 means the server is up and responding but the specific page you are looking for was not found. The site itself is not down, just that particular URL does not exist or has moved.
What does a 500 error mean?
A 500 error means there is a problem on the server side. The website is technically reachable but something broke on the backend. This is usually a temporary issue the website owner needs to fix.
What should I do if a site is down?
If the site is down for everyone, the only thing you can do is wait for the website owner to fix it. Try again in 10 to 30 minutes. If it is only down for you, try clearing your browser cache, switching to a different browser, or restarting your router.
What is a good response time for a website?
Under 200ms is excellent. Under 500ms is good. Under 1 second is acceptable. Anything over 2 seconds is slow and will likely hurt the site's search rankings and user experience. If you are seeing response times over 3 seconds consistently, the site has a performance problem.
