What you see every morning

One screen: what is wrong, why it matters, and what to do about it, most urgent first.

The OwlHound dashboard: a headline saying one site is down, a short to-do list, and a menu down the left

Sample data from a demo account. Swipe sideways to see more.

How it works

Same loop every day. Every alert maps to a concrete check.

1

Probe — we request your public pages on a schedule.

2

Compare — we diff against the last good state.

3

Alert — site down in 5 minutes (confirmed); prices within the hour.

4

Review — see exact URLs under watch in your dashboard.

What we do — and don’t

Clear boundaries. That’s how you decide if we’re safe to hire.

We do

  • Check public HTTPS endpoints you designate
  • Check SSL and domain expiry, and broken links
  • Track competitor product pages you approve
  • Email alerts + a signed-in dashboard
  • Publish our own uptime on a public status page

We don’t

  • Ask for hosting, WordPress, or Google passwords
  • Modify your site, ads, or DNS
  • Act on your behalf — we only watch and tell you
  • Sell or resell your monitoring data
  • Lock you in — monthly billing, cancel anytime

Alerts look like this

Short. Specific. Tied to a named watcher.

OwlHound · Uptime alert DOWN

blueorchid.example is down

Confirmed 2 minutes ago · 3 probes and a second round all failed · HTTP 503

We only alert after repeated failures from two separate rounds, with a check on our own network first — so a one-off blip never wakes you up.

Common questions

What does OwlHound monitor?

Your website's uptime every 5 minutes, SSL certificate and domain expiry, broken links, competitor product prices and stock, and whether Google is being blocked from your pages (noindex, robots.txt, canonical and sitemap changes).

How do you avoid false alarms?

A failure is retried inside the check, must repeat in a second round, and our own network is verified healthy before we email you. One email per outage and one when it recovers.

Do I need to give you passwords or install anything?

No. We only check public pages, so there is nothing to install and we never ask for hosting, CMS or payment passwords.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Every add-on and bundle has a 7-day free trial with no card, the Free plan is free for good, and everything paid has a 30-day money-back guarantee.

Who runs OwlHound?

OwlHound is an independent service built and run by Arindam Sarkar from India. See the About page for details.
