Frequently Asked Questions
Can a website be down in one country but up in another?
Yes. CDN node failures, regional routing issues, government censorship, or geo-blocking can all cause a site to be accessible in some countries but not others.
How does the multi-country check work?
We route an HTTP request through a proxy server located in the country you select. The response status and timing are measured from that location, giving you a realistic view of what users there experience.
What countries are available for checking?
We currently have proxy servers in 26 countries. The list grows as we add more locations. Each country has one or more proxy servers to ensure reliable checks.
