Just wanted to share what I believe to be a helpful link for bloggers who have to ask their Twitter followers, "Is my blog down, or is it just me?" I know I've wondered that many times. So, here's a website I found useful that actually helped me recently. (My site was down. It wasn't just me.)

Thanks for sharing! You could lose a lot of money, traffic, etc. if hours pass without realizing your site is down.

Very helpful – thanks!  I've only had my site down once or twice but thankfully I caught it pretty quickly and was able to get things fixed in a jiffy.  (Well actually my hosting company got things fixed in a jiffy :)  )

I use pingdom and it's been great at letting me know when my site is down.  It happened too frequently with my previous host and only once with hostgator.

Ya, I use Pingdom as well and set up a filter in Gmail so my inbox doesn't get spammed with emails from monitoring tools like that. I have a "Site Monitoring" label that the emails automatically go in to. I can then glance at my sidebar and see when a new email has come in under that label and I know to check it. It also allows me to quickly glance at a history of my site downtime.

Another site you can use is Montastic.  It's free and has saved my butt a few times.

Thanks for sharing. This is really helpful. Luckily I don't have to deal with this very often.
