(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 10, 2011 ) Oakdale, MN -- Websites when setup right can bring in a fair amount of cash for the website owner. But what owners need to know is that they are sometimes losing money from their website and they are not aware of it.
Lets discuss the basics of a web server. Websites are hosted on a web server. A web server is made up of hardware similar to a personal computer but usually much more powerful. These systems are also run by special operating systems that allow it to accept visitors over the internet and allows it to show the webpages that the users have uploaded as as well.
Some of the reasons for web servers going down are because of hardware or software failure. This happens more then most people realize. When a web server goes down so do all of the websites that are hosted on that server. Most of the time, the website owners are not aware of this outage because hosting companies are not in the business of calling clients and telling them that their website is down.
So, once the server company gets around to noticing that the server is down they will start working on it. But how long the server is down and the associated websites is only known by the hosting companies themselves.
A website owner needs some type of remote monitoring service to monitor the web site for them. Now this does not mean they need monitoring software that has to be installed on their websites server. Those programs may work for some but a remote monitoring service is better and they monitor websites 24/7/365 and are not dependent on just one server to operate.
The website owner needs a company that will notify them within minutes of an outage and this company must give the website owner a choice of alert notification methods such as email, text message, desktop alert application, facebook or even twitter.
Once notified the website owner can get on the phone and contact the hosting company at once and let them know of the outage and this will get them moving quickly since a client is on the line versus taking their own time and doing it when they can.
Everything that was mentioned above is available from one specific company. The company I am referencing is Remote Monitoring Services at: http://www.RemoteMonitoringServices.com. They have alert monitoring server locations in Australia the United States and the UK as well.
They do not believe in preconfigured packages and only charge for what is used by the client. For example, to have a website monitored every 10 minutes from any one of their locations around the world costs about $1.50 a month.
