How To Set-up a Website Monitoring Tool

Sept. 1, 2010 - PRLog -- Yup It’s Up has a reputation for being one of the best network management systems on the planet, but did you also know Yup It’s Up also features a website monitoring tool?

Why would one need a website monitor exactly? Let’s say you are a webmaster, business owner, or store manager and you have a website for your business. Your website could have a lot of applications, including shopping carts, flash introductions, blog, or several other interactive features. Typically, you want these operating at 100% efficiency at all times.

However, mistakes are bound to happen, whether it be internally or externally. If one of these applications goes down, you want to be able to fix it immediately, before any customer or client recognizes it.

Yup It’s Up has created a video on how-to set-up their website monitoring software. Here’s a broad over-view of step-by-step instructions on setting-up this great management tool!

The video begins by instructing new users to enter their website details. This includes identifying your websites name, host, and tag. This tag helps you distinguish your sites.

Next you will be asked to add monitors, where you will need to choose a service type (options include PING, HTTP, SSL Expiration, or SNMP). You will then need to select a frequency (either 10, 30, or 60 minutes), then, fill in the URL of the webpage to be monitored.

You will then need to repeat this step for each page on your website that you wish to monitor. Depending on the size of your site, this can either be a very quick, or some-what lengthy process. However, having a fully operational site is priceless and well worth the time of the initial set-up!
