Frequently Asked Questions
Everything you need to know about our website monitoring service
What makes PingCat different from other monitoring tools?
We focus on what really matters: uptime, SSL, and broken links — no dashboards full of noise. PingCat is fast to set up, easy to understand, and built to alert you when things break, not after.
Does it work with WordPress, Shopify or Wix?
Yes. PingCat works with any public website, regardless of the platform. If we can access your URL, we can monitor it.
Can I receive alerts on Slack or Telegram?
Yes. You can connect your alerts to Slack and email. Telegram and more integrations are coming soon.
Will PingCat affect my SEO or website performance?
Not at all. We only ping your site and follow internal links like any search engine would. We won’t overload your server or cause any SEO issues.
How fast will I get alerts?
You can configure the check interval, as short as 30 seconds. That means, PingCat will check your website every 30 seconds, if anything is wrong, the alert is sent instantly, without delays.
How many sites can I monitor for free?
One site. Forever. No credit card needed. Upgrade only if you need more.
Is there an API?
We are working on provide a comprehensible API for developers so you can automate adding sites to your PingCat account. We will release it soon enough.
Who is behind PingCat?
PingCat is built by indie developers who’ve spent years managing client websites, hosting, and production infrastructure. We made the tool we always wished existed.
Why I should buy this instead do a cron job?
Totally fair!
A cron job works... if you’ve got time to:
- Write the logic for HTTP checks + SSL health
- Monitor from multiple global locations to avoid false positives
- Handle retries, alerting, and status pages
- Crawl for broken links (optional but helpful)
- Send notifications to Slack, mail, (telegram coming soon)
And if you manage multiple sites (freelancer? agency?), it gets messy fast.
PingCat handles all that, out of the box. One less system to maintain.
