This past week 3 of my sites (hosted at the same provider) crashed and I did not realize it for 3 days . Once I called my provider the problem was fixed in 3 minutes.

Warriors I need your help!

Is there a service, wordpress plugin, or any other method to be notified by email when the site goes down?

    It does sound like the problem was entirely with your host and I hope that is really unusual among hosts. At least I have never had anything like this happen. Personally I would be looking for a new host and it would be high on my to do list.

    A great place to research hosts is Web Hosting - Web Hosting Talk Or, you could check out any of my sig site footers

      There are several sites that charge for monitoring your site and emailing you if it goes down. Google it and you shall find. Good luck, Ed.
