🌐 Website Online Status & Uptime Checker

Instantly check if any target website is online, extract HTTP response status codes, verify page accessibility, and measure latency from global edge locations.

No browser automation or complex setup required. This edge-optimized tool routes verification requests directly via a secure Cloudflare Worker gateway, pings the target domain using highly-efficient connection pools, and parses the latency statistics.

🌟 Key Features

• Real-time Status Verification: Instantly check if a target domain is online (is_up = true/false).
• Latency Benchmarking: Measures connections speeds and TTFB (Time to First Byte) in milliseconds.
• Smart Redirects and Auto-formatting: Gracefully handles protocol prefixes (http/https auto-resolution).
• Custom Timeout Safeties: Implements an 8-second request abortion signal to avoid hanging connections on dead/stalled websites.
• Direct Access Routing: Authenticated via standard X-Api-Key headers.
• Robust Error Handling: Handles DNS resolve failures and connection time-outs gracefully, saving details to your output datasets.

🛠️ How It Works

This Actor forwards your requested domain to a secure Cloudflare Worker edge reverse-proxy. The proxy routes the request to the target site using an optimized User-Agent header profile (UptimeStatusCheckerBot/1.0).

The status code, status message text, and total query latency are returned to the Actor, stored in the Key-Value store (OUTPUT), and appended as a row to the default dataset.

📥 Input Parameters

Input JSON Example

{
"url":"google.com"
}

📤 Output Data Structure

Tabular datasets output clean rows mapping the online status metrics:

Output JSON Example

{
"success":true,
"url_tested":"https://google.com",
"is_up":true,
"status_code":200,
"status_text":"OK",
"latency_ms":78,
"description":"Successfully checked website online status."
}

💳 Monetization & Cost

This Actor utilizes the Pay-Per-Event (PPE) pricing model on the Apify Store:

• Base Pricing: Only $1.00 per 1,000 successful lookups ($0.001 per event).
• Pay as You Go: If validation fails due to network/gateway issues, no billing charges occur.
