2008 Year End Announcement

New Languages

We are pleased to announce that our service is now available in 6 new languages - Bulgarian, Czech, Greek, Hungarian, Lithuanian and Vietnamese.

To use any of them, please visit http://myhostmonitor.com/language.php

Monitoring Profile

Professional accounts will now be able to customize advanced monitoring settings. This is accessible from Monitoring -> Monitoring Profile menu in your control panel. This feature allows you to define how sensitive or insensitive you want monitoring to be, and can be useful in countering false alarms. You can also choose specific locations to monitor your websites/servers from.

New Monitoring Stations

We will begin to monitor from 5 additional locations in the next few days.

If you have a firewall, please make sure to whitelist the following new IP addresses:
  1. Montreal, Quebec, Canada: 72.55.164.246
  2. Madrid, Spain: 77.240.118.10
  3. Milan, Italy: 78.159.196.25
  4. Frankfurt, Hesse, Germany: 212.95.32.114
  5. Auckland, New Zealand: 113.21.224.40
If the above stations are blocked from accessing your monitored websites/servers, you may receive false alarms. Please refer to http://myhostmonitor.com/network.php for our complete network details or to subscribe to our XML feed.

We would also like to wish you a Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays. May 2009 bring health, happiness and prosperity to you and your family. Thank you.
