Don’t
live
with your head in the sand. While every hosting company tries its best

major

They just
don’t exist. Your best bet is to monitor your Webhost to
determine if their uptime is quality uptime. This is what Downtime
Witness has to offer. For free. Our purpose in giving this software for
free is to educate people about hosting realities. Servers are
computers, they freeze up at times. Don't let the web host's sales
pitch win you over, let the facts take care of that. And remember, at
least once in a blue moon, a little bit of downtime is to be expected!
With this product, you can see how much downtime is actualy involved.
