WordPress monitoring for owners, teams and agencies
WordPress is quick to extend, but rarely monitored cleanly: homepage, menus, plugins, WooCommerce, SEO settings, SSL and domain all live in completely different places. The live24h plugin brings these points into a single guided setup flow – right in the WordPress admin under Tools → live24h Website Monitor.
After the scan, owners and teams get a concrete answer instead of an empty list: what matters, what is being monitored and where risk still remains. The key point: the plugin only sets up the monitoring. The actual checks then run around the clock on the live24h platform – independently of your server.
What the plugin handles for you
| Starting point | Plugin result |
|---|---|
| “Which pages should we even monitor?” | The homepage, important menu pages and relevant slugs are suggested and pre-selected. |
| “What happens if checkout is unavailable?” | WooCommerce paths like shop, cart and checkout are treated as dedicated checks – not as ordinary subpages. |
| “SEO must not break after the relaunch.” | robots.txt, sitemap, noindex and canonical signals become visible as a monitoring topic. |
| “SSL and domain just tick along in the background.” | Certificate and domain expiry land in the same check selection, with timely warnings. |
| “Is our WP-Cron actually still running?” | WP-Cron and backup jobs can be monitored as a heartbeat. |
| “We want to know how well we’re protected.” | The Website Health Score makes the state instantly explainable. |

Frequently asked questions
Is this only meant for shops? No. The plugin fits any WordPress website and automatically becomes more comprehensive as soon as WooCommerce is active.
Does the checkout check trigger real orders? No. It monitors the reachability of the paths, not an actual payment. No test orders are created.
Do I need to understand technical details? No. The Health Score and recommendations explain the value, without you having to know check types.
What does the plugin cost? Nothing – it’s included in every live24h plan, including the Free plan. Your plan only determines the scope of your checks.
