Just realized that one of my web servers was full in terms of disk space, so all my WordPress site updates had failed, and were now offline!

All my rankings on these sites dropped on the same days as the core update,
so I never realized till I checked my email WordPress error updates messages, and tried to log on to publish an article on a site.
For some reason, I got a site back online message from status cake, when I never got one to say offline?!

A lesson that sometimes it's not what might be the most obvious solution to a problem! :D

Smart lesson in a way for others to learn in the past when I used to use tiny or small servers maning the servers was sometimes like a nightmare so I would always have to remove or change how servers do things to make them run better or have more space in them often.
 
Lesson learned - Always use a website monitor service .. =)

I check my servers every two days, learned a lesson the hard way.

Yeah, i think that's too much for me, maybe every week manually, and monitoring service for the rest of the time, one that works!

Yeah, I was using status cake, but I never got an offline message, I would have noticed in my inbox that right away for the sites.

I would agree for example you crash your car and police stop you just say this"
Google broke my car for why I crashed please contact Google and thank you for understanding" then when the police guy or girl believes you just get onto plane or boat then leave the country and wait patiently for the police to try and sue Google for it when police win come back to the country without paying for car damages or so.
 
i found my site was hacked , just 2 inserted links to porno sites in my main article
very nice
thanks mister hacker for this drop
 
Get an uptime robot and let it check your server every 5 minutes without ever worrying about anything.

I used to have Pingdom tools, I think. But they are not free anymore. Is status cake free?

Any suggestions for a free uptime robot?
