A comment on Uptime Robot.

I really like the design and I am trying it with a couple of tests, but it seems to be reporting the opposite of reality. Shows one of my sites as down though it says Keyword Found and it shows the response time, while another one which is really down is shown as up:

edit: If it is of any use for debugging, these sites' IDs are: 775909552 (up) and 775909549 (down).

6 hour update. Now both sites are up but they are both listed as down and with "Keyword Found".

Liking the service a lot by the way! That's why I am reporting what I find.

Seeing the same here. Maybe the CNAME is tripping it up.

Neither domain has a CNAME set up.
