Server Status Checker

Free Server Status Checker — Is Your Website Up or Down?

Every minute your website is down, you are losing visitors, revenue, and SEO equity. Search engines that cannot crawl your site due to server errors may eventually drop your pages from the index. This free Server Status Checker tests any URL and instantly returns the HTTP status code, response time, and server details — telling you definitively whether the site is up, down, or returning errors.

Enter any URL or domain to check. The tool makes a live HTTP request and reports the exact status code returned (200, 301, 404, 500, 503, etc.), the server response time in milliseconds, and the server software identified in the response headers.

Use this tool when a site appears unreachable, when users report errors, or to verify a site is returning the correct status codes after maintenance or migration work.

HTTP Status Codes Explained

200 OK. The request succeeded. The server is up and returning content normally.

301 / 302. Redirect responses. The URL has been moved. The tool follows redirects and shows the final destination status.

404 Not Found. The requested page does not exist on the server. Either the URL is wrong or the page has been deleted.

500 Internal Server Error. The server encountered an unexpected error. Usually a code or configuration problem on the server side.

503 Service Unavailable. The server is temporarily unable to handle requests. Usually caused by maintenance, overload, or a crash. Set a Retry-After header to signal expected return time to crawlers.

Connection Timeout. The server did not respond within the allowed time. Usually indicates the server is down, overloaded, or a firewall is blocking requests.
