Frequently asked questions

How long does setup take?

About 2 minutes. Sign up, paste your website's URL, and monitoring starts automatically.

Do I need to install anything?

No. SiteSentry checks your site from the outside, like a visitor would - nothing to install on your server.

Does SiteSentry access my website?

We only send standard requests to check if your site is responding, the same as any visitor's browser would. We don't access your files, database, or admin area.

How does monitoring work?

We check your website at regular intervals (as often as every minute on paid plans) and alert you by email the moment something breaks, and again when it recovers.

What happens if SiteSentry itself goes down?

SiteSentry runs on Cloudflare's global infrastructure, built for high reliability. No monitoring service can guarantee perfect uptime for itself, but we're built on the same infrastructure trusted by a large share of the internet.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancel anytime from your dashboard - no contracts, no fees.

What happens after the free plan?

Nothing changes unless you choose to upgrade. The free plan stays free permanently - one site, checked every 10 minutes, no credit card required.
