Availability and performance are crucial
Your website is the face of your business. And if products and services are offered via your homepage, then your website becomes a decisive factor in your company’s success.
Along with an attractive design and intuitive user interface, performance is one of the most important factors for determining the effectiveness of your website. Long load times frustrate users and increase bounce rates – which can consequently lead to a drop in sales.
Website crashes, however, are even worse. The more dependent your company is on its website, the greater the costs of an eventual crash – even if the downtime only lasts for a few minutes.
An introduction to web server monitoring with PRTG
Web server monitoring is a must for getting the most out of your website
To avoid website downtime and poor performance, consider monitoring your web server with PRTG. If potentially problematic values appear, you’ll immediately receive a notification and can therefore intervene quickly – usually before your web server actually goes down.
With PRTG, a quick glance is all it takes to see if everything is OK. Sit back, relax, and enjoy the feeling of knowing your web server is in perfect working order.
Keep a constant eye on your website
Promptly determine if your web server is overloaded
PRTG lets you keep a constant eye on all the most important values affecting your server and website. By monitoring load times, response times, transactions, and content, you’ll immediately be informed if your site is overextended, offline, or simply taking too long to load. PRTG will send you an email, SMS, or push notification so you can get to work at once.
Ensure the ultimate user experience
Your goal as a webmaster should be to provide your visitors with as enjoyable an experience as possible. Along with helpful and valuable content, load times play an extremely vital role. Web servers not only supply content, but also perform user authentication, security certificate maintenance, encryption, and the logging of activities.
Quickly see if your web servers are up and running
– even while on the go
PRTG can be started within minutes and it's compatible with many mobile devices.
How PRTG monitors your web server
Hardware
Behind every website and web service, there is a server. If memory is low or RAM and CPU are overloaded, then the services found on the corresponding server will not be running properly. Thanks to the PRTG Web Server Monitoring Tool, you can keep an eye on important hardware data such as memory, CPU usage, and the capacity of your hard drives.
Performance and traffic
PRTG monitors the key performance values of your web server by measuring (among other things) total traffic, available bandwidth, and the number of current sessions. It also displays the load times of both entire websites as well as individual page elements. Thanks to the PRTG Cloud HTTP sensors, you can easily monitor load times from locations all over the world, and therefore offer your customers the best possible user experience, wherever they happen to be. All data can be filtered as desired and presented on easy-to-read PRTG dashboard.
iBandwidth is measured as the amount of data that can be transferred from one point to another within a network in a specific amount of time. Typically, bandwidth is expressed as a bitrate and measured in bits per second (bps). It refers to the transmission capacity of a connection and is an important factor when determining the quality and speed of a network. Read more ...
PRTG sensors for monitoring your website
iWhat is a sensor?
In PRTG, “Sensors” are the basic monitoring elements. One sensor usually monitors one measured value in your network, e.g. the traffic of a switch port, the CPU load of a server, the free space of a disk drive. On average you need about 5-10 sensors per device or one sensor per switch port.
Predefined sensors
PRTG comes equipped with predefined sensors for the fully automatic monitoring of the various parameters of your website. For example, the HTTP Sensor monitors the availability of your site, while the HTTP Full Web Page Sensor keeps an eye on the load times of an entire website, including all images. The HTTP Transaction Sensor can be used to monitor processes (such as an online order from A to Z). Finally, the HTTP Content Sensors checks the content of a website and the HTTP Data Advanced Sensor monitors the XML and JSON file values that are returned by a web server.
Sensors for Apache web servers
PRTG also offers two types of sensors for your Apache web server. These sensors are available by default, and provide a constant overview of the availability, requests, transferred data, uptime, and CPU load of your Apache server.

PRTG is your all-in-one web server monitoring tool
i Ping is a command-line utility, available on virtually any operating system with network connectivity, that acts as a test to see if a networked device is reachable. The ping command sends a request over the network to a specific device. A successful ping results in a response from the computer that was pinged back to the originating computer. Read more ...
