(EMAILWIRE.COM, January 25, 2011 ) Oakdale, MN -- What an internet business owner needs to know is that most websites experience downtime on a regular basis. They need to realize that a website is hosted on a server at a hosting company and that server is just a piece of equipment that can fail just like all of the other servers in the world.
The problems can be a hardware issue or possibly a software issue, since it is software that runs the server and allows it to function in its current capacity. Now what is important to point out is the fact that when this server fails or any of the associated hardware fails like the routers, hubs, switches, or fiber optic lines the hosting company will more then likely not be notifying you of any issues.
Web hosting companies are not obligated to tell there customers when a server goes down. They are only obligated to keep the server running as much as possible and have it up more then it is down. What a website owner needs is a remote monitoring service that does server monitoring to keep a watch out for their website going down.
Basically, a website monitor will check your server to make sure it is still present on the internet. If it is not, it will then try checking it a bit more and if it still is not available it will then send off an alert to the person who set up the website server monitors via email, cell phone message (SMS), facebook, twitter or through a Windows desktop application if the monitoring service company offers such an option.
There's a great company that provides this type of monitoring service and they are called Remote Monitoring Services and are located at: http://www.RemoteMonitoringServices.com.
The service they provide is great for all website owners that wish to watch over their website without having to do it themselves. They don't believe in package prices and only charge a user for exactly what they use on a monthly basis.
A good example of this is for a website owner that wishes to have their website checked once every 10 minutes from any one of their several monitoring locations around the world, which are located in the USA on the east and west coast and the midwest too. Along with locations in the UK and Australia as well for a cost of about $1.50 a month.
