We’ve just rolled out a helpful new setting to give you tighter control over how uptime is measured: Redirect URL Validation.

Managing dozens (or hundreds) of client sites can quickly become chaotic without the right tools. Whether you're running an agency, internal platform team or dev shop, visibility and control are everything. That's where Oh Dear comes in. Oh Dear is an all-in-one monitoring service that gives you a unified dashboard for uptime checks, performance monitoring, broken link detection, SSL and domain expiry alerts, scheduled task validation and more.

The past few months, we’ve working on improving our uptime check. We proud to announce that this improved check is now available for all users. You don’t have to do anything to get it (unless you are not subscribed to Oh Dear, in that case your should subscribe to Oh Dear ), all our users now have it enabled by default. In this blogpost, I’d like to give an overview of the changes and some background why we changed some things.
