DOWNTIME, DETECTED FAST

Know the second your site goes down.

Fortely notices when your site goes down during a scheduled scan, automatically rechecks a couple of times to rule out a one-off blip, then alerts you — and alerts you again the moment it recovers.

◇ WHAT WE CHECK
Site-down detection during your regular scheduled scan
Automatic rechecks before alerting, so a brief blip doesn’t trigger a false alarm
Recovery notification once the site is back
// HOW IT WORKS
01

Add your site

Paste a URL — Fortely fingerprints your framework, host, sitemap, and robots.txt in seconds.

02

Pick a schedule

Choose how often to scan, from every 4 hours to weekly, and a mobile / desktop / both device profile.

03

Get alerted on regressions

Every scan is diffed against your last baseline — you only hear about what actually changed.

Downtime detection tied to your scan schedule

Downtime is first noticed during your regular scheduled scan, so a shorter schedule — down to every 4 hours on Business — means less time before Fortely has a chance to notice something's wrong. Once flagged, Fortely automatically rechecks a couple of times before sending an alert, and the same alert closes the loop once your site recovers.

// FAQ
How fast are downtime alerts?+
It depends on how often Fortely scans your site — as often as every 4 hours on Business, daily or weekly on Pro. Once a scan notices something wrong, Fortely automatically rechecks a couple of times to rule out a blip before alerting you.
Do I get notified when the site comes back up?+
Yes — recovery triggers its own notification once a subsequent check succeeds.
Is this a dedicated uptime pinger?+
It's built into the same scheduled crawl as your other monitoring rather than a separate second-by-second pinger — choose a faster schedule for tighter detection windows.
