Imagine walking up to your favorite store, only to find the doors locked and the lights off. Frustrating, right? That’s exactly how your customers feel when your website is down. In the digital age, your website is open 24/7—unless something goes wrong with your hosting. That’s where “uptime” comes in.
What Is Uptime, Anyway?
Uptime is the percentage of time your website is online and accessible to visitors. It’s usually expressed as a percentage—like 99.9% or 99.99%. The higher the number, the less downtime you’ll experience.
Why Uptime Matters for Your Business
- First Impressions Count
If a potential customer lands on your site and it’s down, there’s a good chance they won’t come back. You might lose a sale—or even a loyal customer—for good. - Lost Revenue
Every minute your site is offline is a missed opportunity, especially for e-commerce businesses or companies relying on online bookings or inquiries. - SEO Impact
Google doesn’t like sites that are frequently down. Poor uptime can hurt your search engine rankings and make it harder for new customers to find you. - Brand Reputation
Frequent downtime makes your business look unreliable. Trust is hard to win and easy to lose—don’t risk it with a flaky website.
