WordPress Monitoring

Keep your WordPress site reliable and secure. Watchman Tower is bringing dedicated monitoring for WordPress — combining uptime checks, SSL certificate alerts, domain expiry tracking, and performance insights in one place.

This feature is currently in development and will roll out soon. Existing users can enable alert channels via Notifications and get instant mobile alerts with our app: Download the mobile app.

What You’ll Be Able to Track

• Uptime & Availability — Continuous checks with incident detection and auto-resolve.
• Response Time — Spot slowdowns before they become outages.
• SSL Monitoring — Renewal reminders and invalid/expired certificate alerts.
• Domain Expiry — Timely notices so your domain never lapses.

Planned additions: WordPress-specific signals (e.g., login page health, homepage keyword check) and update insights for plugins/themes.

How It Will Work

1. Add your WordPress site URL and choose the checks you need.
2. Configure alert channels (Email, Slack, SMS, Push) in Notifications.
3. Get instant alerts and see recovery confirmations. Manage incidents from your dashboard or via mobile app.

Why WordPress Needs Dedicated Monitoring

• Frequent core/plugin/theme updates can introduce conflicts and downtime.
• Shared hosting and caching layers may hide real availability issues.
• SEO and revenue suffer quickly when pages slow down or go offline.

Availability & Beta

WordPress Monitoring is in active development and launching soon. We’re prioritizing core checks first (uptime, SSL, domain, response time), then adding WordPress-specific signals. Turn on your alert channels now and you’ll be the first to know when it goes live.

FAQ

Do I need a plugin?

Not for the initial release. Core monitoring works over the network without installing anything on your site. Plugin-level insights are planned.

Will this slow down my site?

No. Checks are performed externally and designed to be lightweight. They measure availability and response, not execute heavy actions.

Which alerts can I receive?

Email, Slack, SMS, and Push Notifications — all configurable in Notifications. You’ll get incident, reminder, and recovery messages. For mobile Push, visit the mobile app page.

Can I use it for multiple WordPress sites?

Yes. You can add multiple sites and manage them from the same dashboard. Per-site alert rules are supported.
