    Hello,

    I'm wondering if using some uptime monitoring webtools is better for site and is it good looking for users and if it can help to promote it.

    I'm thinking about putting some on my sites but I'm not sure if it will be more pro and if it give better site worth if my site is near 100% uptime.

    Theres a lot of uptime services and I'm thinking about 2 right now - host-tracker.com and timetouptime.com both of them are free and first of them have paid option also where you can get better interval monitoring for 1 minute. I saw that this timetouptime have Interval monitoring 1min for free but this is doesn't matter.

    I want to know if it's good for site users and helpful for them?

    It depends on your niche. For example we show the uptime on our website because we are web hosting company and our clients are looking for a provider offering good uptime. This way we can prove our reliability.

    If you have e. g. website with online games I don't believe that significant number of your visitors will care about your uptime.
