What's included with free website monitoring

Site24x7's free plan gives you five website monitors, checks running every minute, and alerts delivered the moment something goes wrong.

You can monitor from up to three global locations of your choice, with email notifications, performance dashboards, uptime SLA reports, and one public status page — all included at no cost. No trial period, and no expiry date.

What can you monitor for free?

Monitor any publicly accessible website or web application over HTTP and HTTPS, verify that your SSL certificate is valid and not approaching expiry, run ping checks to confirm basic reachability, and validate that the right content is appearing on your page.

If a page returns a 200 OK but displays an error message, Site24x7's content checks catch it, something a basic ping tool would miss entirely.

Get your websites checked every 1 minute from 130+ locations using our website monitoring feature set.
