Green means that your site is up and running smoothly. The best part about this extension is when ever your server status changes, it will show a popup.
So if you are on VPS, you can quickly reboot or if on shared hosting, you can quickly ask your hosting customer care to reboot your server or look into the matter.
Do let us know which web service are you using to monitor your server status and is your hosting giving you 100% uptime?

I am using Hostagtor and I think up time is 100%
This is a really cool extension! Should be pretty useful for critical e-Commerce websites or blogs. However, I wonder how reliable it is… and how does it check for the status of the site?
Its a great plugin….so now we don’t need to check every time that is our server is up or not….thanks for sharing..
Great plugin for blog owners. I will add it to my Chrome soon !
This can be really helpful for vps and paid sharing hosts but free hosting does not provide good response to customers(Customer service i mean ) ! I think atleast they can know the status of the site !!
Thats very useful for checking site downtime stats. Good one
Thanks for sharing the Extension details. I use pingdom and other tools for this purpose.
I just installed this plugin. Thanks for sharing. And it is very easy to set.
We can track status of any website.
this will help test hosting services. these many of them claim to be good but in reality is something else. This will also tell when you have to upgrade from the shared hosting. nice extension.
Could it be possible to get a notification via email, if server goes down with this tool?
Great share. I have just installed the extension.
I am using this. It’s really helping a lot.
This plug will really help blogger like us…
