Answer 2)Uptime is the mount of time in a month that your site is visible. If it was 100% uptime, your site could have
been seen all the time. You take days times hours times minutes, and your uptime percentage is based on that.
99.9 is considered normal, 99.95 or better is very good. To give you an idea, in a normal month 99.9 means
your site was down and not visible for about 44 minutes.

site determines how long the site has been up without going offline - which is very important for most users

loss. This is why TrickyHost strives to provide the best uptime as possible to our clients.

Answer 9)Uptime in relation to hosting is how long your site has been visible on the internet.
for example:
my site has 100% uptime this month would mean that your site had never been offline (not visable on the
internet) that month

Answer 10)Uptime is literally what it means - it is the amount of time your site is online throughout the entire month.
The best uptime would be 100%, but because things can break, many hosts offer 99.9% uptime guarantees.

Answer 11)When talking about webhosting uptime is typically referred to as a percentage total of time your sites are
available over a year. An uptime of 99.9% is often quoted, this means that over a year your sites would be
expected to be down for 8.76 hours. The gold standard of uptime is typically 99.99% which means that over a
year your site would only be down for around 53 minutes of the whole year.
