Why You Need a Status Page
When your service goes down, silence is your enemy. Users flood your support channels, your team scrambles to update everyone, and trust erodes with every minute of uncertainty.
Reduce Support Load
Users check the status page instead of filing tickets.
Build Trust
Transparency during incidents shows professionalism.
Historical Record
Incident history shows your actual reliability over time.
SLA Documentation
Track uptime for SLA compliance and customer reports.

Status Page Anti-Patterns
A bad status page is worse than no status page. Here's what to avoid:
- ✗Manual updates only. Incidents stay "investigating" for hours because no one updated it.
- ✗Always green. Status pages that never show incidents destroy credibility.
- ✗Too much jargon. "Database cluster failover initiated" doesn't help customers.
- ✗No subscriptions. Users can't get notified and have to keep refreshing.
