Is It Down?

How to check if a website is down

1. Enter the address of the site, for example example.com.
2. Press Check site.
3. Our server opens the site from the Cloudflare data center nearest to you and tells you whether it answered, with which status code and how fast.

If the site is up here but does not open for you, the problem is on your side or on your network. If it is down here too, the site has a problem and you can only wait.

What the results mean

The tool follows up to six redirects, for example from http:// to https:// or to the www version, and shows each step.

The site is up, but it does not open for me

1. Reload without cache: press Ctrl+F5 (Cmd+Shift+R on a Mac) or open a private window.
2. Turn off your VPN or proxy, or turn it on: some sites block certain countries or networks. See what geo-blocking is.
3. Clear your DNS cache or switch to a public DNS server. See how to flush the DNS cache and how to change your DNS server.
4. Try another network, for example mobile data instead of Wi-Fi. If it works there, your provider or router is the problem.
5. Check if your IP is blocked. Sites can block addresses with a bad reputation; use the blacklist check.

Frequently asked questions

How often can I check?

As often as you like within normal use. Every check is live; results are not cached.

Why is a site up here but down for others?

Large sites run in many data centers. One region can fail while others work, and DNS problems can affect only some providers.

Can this tool check sites on my home network?

No. For safety it only checks public websites, not private or local addresses.

To see all the headers a site sends, use the HTTP headers checker. To test the connection to a specific port, use the TCP ping.
