⚠️ Deprecating Uptime Monitoring (August 31, 2025)

At Ghostboard, our mission is to build a simple, reliable analytics tool that helps you track what really matters. To stay focused on this mission, sometimes we need to let go of features that don’t fully meet our standards or are not widely used.

One of these features is Uptime Monitoring and Downtime Notifications.

Why We’re Removing It

On August 31, 2025, we will officially retire the Uptime Monitoring feature.

Here’s why:

🔸 Low usage: Very few users regularly use this feature.

🔸 False alerts: Due to firewalls, server configurations or maintenance, and other network restrictions, the uptime checks were sometimes unreliable.

🔸 Not our core focus: There are already great tools specialized in uptime monitoring. We'd rather spend our time improving Ghostboard's core features: privacy-first analytics and performance tracking.

We want to focus all our resources on what we can do best.

What This Means for You

  • The uptime monitoring feature and downtime alerts will stop working on August 31, 2025.
  • You don't need to take any action — this only affects the uptime tracking.
  • All other Ghostboard features will continue working as usual.

We’re Focused on What Matters

  • Recently, we introduced the Scrolling Report, one of the most requested features. It’s already proving to be very useful for many of you to better understand how visitors interact with your pages.
  • Removing the uptime monitoring feature will allow us to focus even more on these kinds of improvements and other features you’ve been asking for.
    We’re excited to keep building what really helps you grow and optimize your sites.

Thank You for Understanding

We know that removing features is never ideal, but we believe this decision will help us make Ghostboard better for everyone.

By focusing on what really matters, we can keep improving speed, reliability, and the features you actually use.

If you have any questions or feedback, we’re happy to hear from you. Just reach out to us anytime.

Thanks for your support! 🚀
