reddit.com was checked by WebsiteStatus on October 18, 2026 at 3:33 AM. The server responded with HTTP status code 403 and a response time of 39 ms. The current status is: Client error. The site redirected to https://www.reddit.com/. You can re-check this site at any time by clicking the "Re-check now" button above, or check another website from the home page.
WebsiteStatus sends an HTTP GET request to the URL you enter over HTTPS, follows any redirects (up to 5), and records the final HTTP status code, total response time, and page title. If the server responds with a 2xx or 3xx status code, the site is marked as "Up & running." If the connection fails or times out, it is marked "Offline."
DNS (Domain Name System) translates a human-readable domain name like example.com into a machine-readable IP address. If DNS resolution fails, your website will be unreachable even if the server itself is running perfectly. WebsiteStatus verifies DNS records as part of the check process to help you rule out DNS issues.
A response time under 200 milliseconds is excellent. Between 200 and 500 milliseconds is average for most websites. Anything over 1 second may feel slow to visitors. Response times above 3 seconds can hurt search rankings and user experience. WebsiteStatus measures the exact round-trip time in milliseconds.
For most websites, checking once a day is sufficient. For business-critical sites, checking every few hours or setting up automated monitoring is recommended. WebsiteStatus is designed for manual, on-demand checks — each result is saved and gets its own shareable URL so you can track the status history of any domain over time.
A 500 status code means "Internal Server Error." The server encountered an unexpected condition that prevented it from fulfilling the request. This is a server-side problem, not an issue with your browser or connection. It often indicates a bug in the website's code, a database connection failure, or insufficient server resources.
Uptime is the percentage of time a website is available and responding correctly over a given period. Most hosting providers aim for 99.9% uptime or higher. Even 1% downtime means nearly 9 hours of unavailability per year. Low uptime hurts SEO rankings, user trust, and revenue. WebsiteStatus helps you spot downtime quickly.
