Simple Bot to Check If a Website Is Down

You don't need a massive ping-monitoring service to verify your own site is online. A simple bot to check if a website is down can be constructed using the AutoBrowser extension running in a background tab. Set the macro to load the URL every ten minutes. If the tool detects the standard 404 or 502 Bad Gateway error text rendered on the screen, it triggers an audible alert, ensuring you are notified of server failures immediately.
