About IsItDown
IsItDown is an independent, real-time website status checker. We help millions of users quickly determine whether a website or online service is experiencing an outage - or if the problem is on their end.
What We Do
When you check a website on IsItDown, we run a multi-step verification process including DNS lookup, HTTP HEAD request, GET fallback, and automatic retries. We require multiple consecutive failures before confirming an outage, reducing false positives.
Our Mission
We believe everyone deserves fast, accurate answers when a service they depend on goes down. Our goal is to be the most reliable, transparent, and useful outage detection tool on the internet.
Independence Disclaimer
IsItDown is not affiliated with, endorsed by, or officially connected to any of the websites or services we monitor. All trademarks, service names, and logos belong to their respective owners. We are an independent third-party monitoring tool.
How We're Different
- Multi-step verification - We don't mark a site down from one failed request
- Status confidence scoring - We show Operational, Possibly Having Issues, Likely Outage, or Confirmed Outage
- Incident timeline - See exactly when issues were detected and resolved
- Crowd-sourced reports - Real user reports by country provide additional signal
- AI-powered analysis - We use Google Gemini AI to provide context for outages
