DOTCOM-MONITOR works to keep you informed about your web site's availability, performance and content - that means your web sites and applications keep running, and are more profitable.

How does our web site monitoring work?
Dotcom-Monitor has remote agents positioned around the globe that act like an Internet browser. Once you create an account with us and submit URLs you would like to monitor, the process starts immediately. Our agents will start checking your site with the frequency that you've set up. The agents monitor your web site to insure the web site is accessible, has proper content, and is maintaining good performance. If any of these things fall outside specified parameters, the notification process starts.

Web Site Monitoring Features:

	Accessibility & Availability Check
	Web Site Accessibility Monitoring insures that your web site is accessible from multiple locations around the world. If the web site is not accessible, we take a traceroute snapshot and record it along the with an error message.  Click here for an example.
	Performance Check
	Web Site Performance Monitoring checks the time it takes for your server to respond to the monitoring agent's request. You can specify the threshold, for example, 5 seconds. This is the time that you expect your page to load on the client browser. If, for example, your page takes over 5 seconds to load, we will notify you about possible performance issues with your server.
	Content Check
	Each time we check your site, we look for a specific phrase or keyword that you've set-up. Web Site Content Monitoring ensures that your page was not altered without your knowledge and that the page has the proper content. This feature is especially useful for insuring your data is valid on database-driven web sites. If a keyword is not present on that web page we take a snapshot of that web page, store it in the database for your review, and start the notification process.
	Form Submission
	Web Site Form Monitoring allows you to insure that your forms work correctly. Specifically, Dotcom-Monitor performs HTTP POST requests and analyzes the results.
	Secure Sites
	Web Site Security Monitoring allows you to monitor password-protected sites.
	Server Digital Certificates
	Digital Certificate Monitoring allows you to monitor the validity of your digital SSL certificate. We verify certificate Authority, Common Name, Date, and Revocation Certificate Usage. This feature is important for any company that uses SSL.
	Client Digital Certificate
	If you have applications that require a client-side certificate as an authentication mechanism, Dotcom-Monitor can install your certificate on the monitoring agent to allow monitoring of your secure site.
	Cookie Support
	Cookies are a general mechanism by which server-side connections can both store and retrieve information on the client side of the connection. The addition of a simple, persistent, client-side state significantly extends the capabilities of Web-based client/server applications. Dotcom-Monitor agents provide complete cookie support.
