The 10 websites our visitors check most often. Click any domain to see its latest status.
google.com was checked by WebsiteStatus on October 18, 2026 at 3:00 AM. The server responded with HTTP status code 200 and a response time of 156 ms. The current status is: Up & running. The site redirected to https://www.google.com/. You can re-check this site at any time by clicking the "Re-check now" button above, or check another website from the home page.
DNS (Domain Name System) translates a human-readable domain name like example.com into a machine-readable IP address. If DNS resolution fails, your website will be unreachable even if the server itself is running perfectly. WebsiteStatus verifies DNS records as part of the check process to help you rule out DNS issues.
Client errors (4xx) mean the request was malformed or the resource does not exist — for example, 404 Not Found or 403 Forbidden. Server errors (5xx) mean the server failed to process a valid request — for example, 500 Internal Server Error or 503 Service Unavailable. WebsiteStatus categorizes each check accordingly so you know where the problem lies.
For most websites, checking once a day is sufficient. For business-critical sites, checking every few hours or setting up automated monitoring is recommended. WebsiteStatus is designed for manual, on-demand checks — each result is saved and gets its own shareable URL so you can track the status history of any domain over time.
WebsiteStatus checks whether the server is responding, but it does not scan for malware or content changes. However, the page title detection feature can give you a clue — if the title suddenly changes to something unexpected, it may indicate a defacement. For full security scanning, use a dedicated malware detection tool.
A 502 Bad Gateway means a proxy or gateway server received an invalid response from the upstream server. A 503 Service Unavailable means the server is temporarily unable to handle the request, often due to maintenance or overload. Both are usually temporary. WebsiteStatus will report the exact code so you know what is happening.
The HTTP status code tells you how the server responded. 200 means the page loaded successfully. 301 or 302 means the page redirected to a new URL. 404 means the page was not found. 500 indicates a server-side error. WebsiteStatus displays the exact code returned so you can diagnose the issue.
