Is It Up or Down? Website Status Checker
Check whether a website is up or down right now, and how fast it responds, from our servers, not your browser.
About the Is It Up or Down? Website Status Checker
Wondering “is it up or down”? This checker sends a live request to the URL you enter from our servers, not your browser, and reports the real HTTP status code and how long it took to respond. If a site feels broken for you, this tells you whether it is actually down for everyone, or just something on your end.
A 2xx or 3xx status means the site is up; a 5xx status or no response means it is down or in trouble. Use it as a quick, neutral server status check before assuming your own connection is at fault.
Frequently asked questions
The site is reachable from our network, so the issue is likely local: your ISP, DNS cache, firewall or VPN. Try flushing DNS or another network.
200–299 = success, 300–399 = redirect (still up), 400–499 = client error, 500–599 = server error (down). A 0 means no response at all.
It’s the time from our server sending the request to receiving the response headers, network latency plus server processing.
The check runs entirely from our servers, independent of your browser, cache or network, so it is a neutral server status check rather than something your own connection could skew.
Yes. Enter any HTTP or HTTPS URL, an API endpoint, a webhook, or a specific page, and we report the exact status code and response time for that URL, not just the site’s homepage.
