Comprehensive Coverage

What to monitor on a WordPress site

A WordPress installation has more moving parts than a static site. Themes, plugins, payment gateways, and admin panels all need to stay online. Here is what Sentinel watches for you.

Homepage uptime

Verify your WordPress homepage loads correctly every 30 seconds with full HTTP status code validation.

wp-admin availability

Ensure the WordPress admin panel stays accessible so you and your clients can manage content without disruption.

WooCommerce checkout pages

Monitor cart and checkout flows to catch payment page failures before they cost you sales.

SSL certificate health

Track certificate expiry dates and chain validity so payment trust indicators never lapse on your store.

Keyword monitoring for critical content

Confirm that key phrases like "Add to Cart" render on product pages and detect error messages that signal plugin conflicts.

DNS record integrity

Watch for unauthorized DNS changes that could redirect traffic away from your WordPress installation.

FAQ

WordPress monitoring questions, answered

Can Sentinel catch outages caused by a plugin or theme update?

Yes. Sentinel monitors your WordPress site's uptime and HTTP status continuously, so when a plugin or core update breaks the site or triggers a fatal error, you're alerted right away instead of finding out later.

Will it warn me before my SSL certificate expires?

Yes. Sentinel tracks SSL certificate validity and expiration dates, so you get advance warning before a lapsed certificate scares off visitors with browser security warnings.

Can I check that a specific page or message still appears?

Yes. Keyword checks let you confirm that expected text renders on a page, or alert you when error text or a maintenance page shows up, which is useful for catching plugin conflicts and white-screen issues.

How often is my WordPress site checked?

Uptime checks can run as often as every 30 seconds from four global regions, with results confirmed by consensus so a single bad region doesn't trigger a false alarm.

How will I be notified if my site goes down?

Alerts are delivered via email, SMS, Slack, Discord, and webhooks, so you can be notified through whichever channels you and your team rely on.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Paid plans come with a 14-day free trial, and there's also a free plan available. You can cancel anytime.
