I Found a Great Website for Troubleshooting Your Computer...

Sometimes when you are going from website to website while browsing the Internet, things can happen. If the website doesn't open, the trouble can be with anything…your computer, your Internet connection, the website itself etc.

A while back, I found a great website to help find a solution…It's called "Is It Down Right Now". I have no affiliation with this site, just wanted to share.

Here are a few screen shots of their site so you can see how it works.

Just type in the website address that you're having trouble with in the search bar (I added the red arrow). I used the Pinterest website as an example.

The first box will then give you the server status check…whether it is up and running or having a problem. That way you will know that it's your computer, your Internet or the site itself.

Scrolling further down, will also give you trouble shooting tips. On the right side bar, are more sites that are up and running or the ones that are down.

If you scroll to the very end, you will find comments from others who may have the same problem as you.

You may not have to use this site all the time, but add it to your bookmarks or favorites, so when you are having problems, it will be there to help!!

Thanks for stopping by,
