Pingdom has long been a staple in the web hosting community – offering webmasters the ability to track their websites and/or servers downtime, uptime, and performance. A large portion of these you could do for free, however Pingdom does offer some extremely valuable premium plans. In the past you would have to upgrade to the Standard level to get any of the cool features such as SMS notifications, however as of October 1st Pingdom has re-worked their Starter plan to now include:
- Probe Server Region Selection
- 50 SMS Alerts Monthly
- 10 Uptime Checks with 1min Intervals
- Asia Pacific Region Test Servers
- Check Tagging
Plus the premium support, and 1 transaction check every 10 minutes – for just $13.95/mo when you pre-pay for the full year or $14.95 month-to-month. Check out the new Starter plan here.
