HTTP/HTTPS Uptime Monitoring

Know the instant your website goes down.

Start Monitoring Free← All Monitor Types

HTTP/HTTPS uptime monitoring checks whether your website is reachable and returning a valid response. Uptrue performs checks from the edge every 30 seconds to 5 minutes, with two-confirmation logic to eliminate false positives.

⚙️How it works

Uptrue sends an HTTP GET request to your URL and evaluates the response status code. If the site returns a 5xx error or times out, a second confirmation check runs 5 seconds later. Only if both fail does an incident open and alerts fire.

✓What Uptrue checks

  • HTTP response status (2xx = up, 4xx = degraded, 5xx = down)
  • Response time
  • Custom expected status code
  • Redirect following

⚠Alert conditions

  • 5xx server error on two consecutive checks
  • Connection timeout
  • Custom expected status code not matched
Why this matters

Every minute of downtime costs you revenue and customer trust. Without monitoring, the first person to know your site is down is often an angry customer. Uptrue alerts you before your users notice.

?Frequently asked questions

How often does Uptrue check my site?
Depending on your plan, checks run every 30 seconds to 5 minutes. On paid plans you can choose the interval.
How do you prevent false alerts?
We use two-confirmation logic: if a check fails, we immediately run a second check. Alerts only fire if both fail.
Do you follow redirects?
Yes. Uptrue follows HTTP redirects and reports the final status code.
