Your site's overview page

Last verified

Every site has its own page. Open Sites and pick a site: you land on its Overview tab, which answers "is it up, is anyone using it, and what changed" without opening anything else.

The header

The top of the page is the same on every tab:

  • The status of the site. Hover over it to see when we last checked and what we saw.
  • The facts: its address (with a copy button), what it runs (for example WordPress, or the PHP or Node.js version), its plan, the release that is Live, Uptime 30d and p50, the median response time of our health checks over the last 24 hours. Uptime shows "—" until the first checks are in; they start within minutes of the site going live.
  • The buttons: Visit site ↗, Deploy (if you may deploy), and for a one-click app its admin sign-in (wp-admin ↗ for WordPress).

Under the header is the tab bar: Overview, Deploys, Databases, Domains, Logs, Analytics, Backups & Staging, Configure and Settings. Logs appears once the site is running. Settings holds the site's visibility, WordPress security, redirects, team and deletion. Owners and administrators see all of it; developers see the parts they may change; others don't see the tab.

The numbers

A row of tiles sums up the last 24 hours:

  • Requests 24h, split into visitors and bots, with a small trend line.
  • Visitors 24h: distinct IP addresses.
  • Server errors 24h: errors the server itself returned (5xx). Refused requests from scanners are not counted; they are the site working.
  • p95 response: 95 % of requests were answered at least this fast. It turns amber when responses are slow.
  • Cache hit: how many cacheable requests were served from the cache.
  • Disk: space used out of your site's allowance, with a meter.
  • Traffic this month: outgoing traffic, which resets on the 1st. Until we have a monthly figure the tile reads Traffic out, counted since the site last restarted.

A tile that shows "—" has no measurement yet. Hover over it for the reason. Requests 24h, Server errors 24h and Disk link to the Analytics tab, which has the detail.

Below the tiles you see Traffic · last 24 hours (requests per hour, visitors and bots) and Recent deploys, with All deploys leading to the Deploys tab.

If something needs you, it appears at the top first: a failed deploy with Open log ›, a Next step while you are still setting the site up, and anything running right now (a deploy, a backup, a staging copy), which updates by itself until it finishes.

The side column

  • Domains: your domain, the preview address, whether the domain is connected, the certificate and how many days it has left. Manage opens the Domains tab.
  • Email: how many mailboxes the site uses out of its allowance.
  • Backups: when the last one ran, the schedule, and Back up now.
  • Add-ons: what you can add to this site, with its price, or On · Manage for what you already have.
  • Access: whether SSH & SFTP is on, with the host and user to copy.
  • Activity: everything except deploys from the last 30 days. Full feed opens the account's activity log.

Memory, CPU and disk over time

Open the Analytics tab and scroll to Resources. It shows your site's own server measured every 30 seconds: CPU now, Memory, Disk and Out-of-memory kills, plus charts for CPU, memory, network and disk activity. Pick 1 hour, 24 hours or 7 days.

One out-of-memory kill means your site reached its memory limit and a process was stopped. The Logs tab shows the errors your site logged around that time.
