    There is one more. It is called BasicState. It is very simple to use.

    Excellent…I just started working on my blog in the past few weeks. I’m going to need one of these to monitor my uptime, although HostGator can’t be stopped.

    I use http://www.internetuptimemonitor.com – Works great for me and Free too. Sends emails when your site goes down – I’ve actually gotten a few of them.

    Thanks for putting together such a nice collection of uptime monitoring services. There sure are a lot of them out there.

    For those interested in outsourcing their website monitoring, Techout (see website above) is a great way to go. It’s a paid service, but there’s no software to install and you get alerts when the site is down. They do cloud monitoring and transaction monitoring too.

    Thanks for the mentioned. You could also add 100pulse.com to your list , a newly released user friendly monitoring service.

    Good list, all of them are decent services and I have used several of them. You could also add ezwebsitemonitoring.com to the list, they provide uptime, response time, error checking and SEO tracking too with keywords, backlinks, competitors, etc. Check it out if you get time.

    A simple and effective service is pagestatus.info. Besides server checking they also check for keyword content within the html. Many notifications service and if you ask them nicely they open to adding new notification routes
