Create a status page

Publish a public page that tells visitors whether your website works.

Try it

In the studio: Status pages → New status page. In this practice copy, try slack.com to see a restricted domain, and a name ending in .invalid to see a website that cannot be reached.

Which website is this status page for?

Just type the address. We build the page for you, and you can change anything after, if you want.

The name only, no https://. A subdomain like blog.example.com works too.

The domain

  • Type the name only, like example.com. A subdomain like blog.example.com works too.
  • If you paste a full address (https://www.example.com/page), it is shortened to the name for you.
  • Only lowercase letters, numbers, dots and hyphens; up to 40 characters.

Messages you may see

  • This domain name is restricted. The domain belongs to a popular service that already has a page on uptimecard.com. To create one for it, email support@uptimecard.com.
  • This site can’t be reached. We could not open the website. Check the spelling. If it is right (for example the site is not live yet), choose Yes, create under Create it anyway?
  • Redirection Detected. The domain sends visitors to another website. Create the page for the final address instead.
  • The status page on your plan is in use. Every plan includes one status page.

What the new page starts with

  • A public address right away: uptimecard.com/status/your-domain, plus its own address on a uptimecard.com subdomain.
  • Manual mode: nothing checks the website automatically; the page shows it as working until you post an incident. See Manual and automatic checks.
  • First words drafted from your website, a sample logo and picture, which you replace in the editor.

Anyone can create a page for any domain

That is why changing the words and pictures needs one more step: verify that you own the domain.
