What Most Website Owners Overlook That Can Cause Big Losses!

(EMAILWIRE.COM, February 04, 2011 ) Oakdale, MN -- When it comes to starting, running and owning a website their are more things to be done then can be mentioned here. But what most owners forget about is worrying about if their website is accessible 24/7/365. Because this is one of the most often overlooked problems with owning an internet business.

The reason for this concern is quite valid because web servers are what host websites and if a web server goes down then so does the websites it is hosting. The reasons vary has to why the web servers go down. It can be a hardware failure or a software bug software bug that brings the server to its knees along with all of the websites it is hosting as well.

So, hopefully the website owner's site will only be down an hour or two instead of several hours which is more common. But how can a website owner protect themselves from such events ever happening? Well, a website owner needs to start using some type of website monitoring services. This type of monitoring service will watch over a website and if the website is down it will notify the website owner within minutes of the outage.

The owner then has the opportunity to call the hosting company and let them know their website is not accessible via the net and they want it looked into immediately. This will get the hosting company to take notice of the server and fix it asap. This in turn will minimize the losses the website owner would normally suffer.

What a website owner needs is a website monitoring tool that will pay attention to the websites status and act as an uptime server as well to keep track of vital information such as the last time it went down and for how long, etc. This is also known as site monitoring in some circles.

A company that will notify the website owner via many different alert methods such as email, text message, desktop alert application, twitter or facebook if their website should go down. This will allow a website owner to call the hosting company and get them working on fixing the web server right away versus hours from when it happens. This will cut the losses a business will suffer and increase the cash flow because they are up longer and down less then normal.

There is a company that does all of what was described above and more and they are called Remote Monitoring Services and their site is at: http://www.RemoteMonitoringServices.com. They have monitoring servers located in Australia, The United Kingdom and the United States on the east and west coast and the midwest as well. Their prices are some the best available on the web.
