How do I check if the website is experiencing downtime?

Several websites monitor server status. Some popular options include: 1) Down for Everyone or Just Me (downforeverorjustme.com). 2) IsItDownRightNow (isitdownrightnow.com). 3) Downdetector (downdetector.com). These sites check for reports of outages and can help determine if the problem is on the server's end.
