Uptime refers to the duration that a website or server remains accessible and functional to users over a given period. It is often expressed as a percentage, representing the proportion of time that the system has been online compared to the total time in that period.
For example, if a hosting provider claims to have a 99% uptime guarantee, it means they strive to ensure that their servers will be operational and accessible to users 99% of the time. This implies that the website or server may experience up to 1% downtime or interruption, which could be due to maintenance, server issues, or other factors.
Uptime is a critical factor to consider when choosing a hosting provider or evaluating the performance of a website. Websites with high uptime are more reliable and offer better accessibility to visitors, ensuring that the site remains available and functional for users to access its content or services.
