To see the Site Quality Monitoring feature, you must meet the following requirements:
| Requirement | Description |
|---|---|
| cPanel & WHM version | This feature is only available in cPanel & WHM version 110 or version 116 and later. For more information, read cPanel's Site Quality Monitoring Release Notes documentation. |
| Sign-up process | To use this feature, you must first complete the sign-up process and choose an initial subscription type. To do so, follow all instructions in the interface. |

The Site Quality Monitoring feature includes color indicators. These color indicators reflect the presence of monitoring check errors and failures in the following ways:
| Color | Description |
|---|---|
| Green | Your monitored website has passed all monitoring checks in this category. |
| Yellow | Your monitored website has non-critical errors or failures in this monitoring check category. |
| Red | Your monitored website has critical errors in this monitoring check category. |
The Site Quality Monitoring feature divides common website errors into types based on their severity. The feature uses the following error types:
| Error type | Description |
|---|---|
| Critical | Errors in this category prevent users from accessing or interacting with a monitored URL or website. |
| Non-critical/Moderate | Errors in this category degrade user experience, but do not prevent users from accessing or interacting with a monitored URL or website. |
The Site Quality Monitoring feature assigns scores from 0 to 100 to judge your website’s response to monitoring checks. A higher score indicates that your root domain or URL performs well in that category of monitoring checks. For example, a monitored website with an Availability score of 100 in the left navigation menu is highly available. The monitored website’s users will be able to send requests to the website and receive an appropriate response quickly and efficiently.
The All monitored websites section allows you to access an overview of all your monitored websites, see your unassigned subscriptions, and add new monitored websites.
If any of your monitored websites have critical error alerts, we will display them with the Monitored websites with active critical error alerts: label. Otherwise, we will display them with the Monitored websites without active critical error alerts: label.
Your monitored website will be displayed with its title, monitoring section health bars, and its subscription type. These health bars are color indicators.
You can hover over a monitoring check category’s health bar to view a score and a color indicator for specific checks within that monitoring check category.
To access your monitored website’s monitoring information, click its title. You can also click a monitoring check category or specific check to open their sections.
Opening the Site Quality Monitoring feature opens this section. To return to this section once you have exited it, click Monitored websites in the top navigation bar to open the list of your current monitored websites. Then select All monitored website + Monitor new website to re-open this section.
Once you select a specific monitored website from this section, the left navigation bar will appear.
The left navigation bar includes a monitored website’s Website Summary, Monitoring, Crawling, and Settings tabs.
We display your number of unassigned subscriptions in the You have number unassigned subscription(s) label above the Monitor new website button, where number represents your unassigned subscriptions.
When you upgrade a monitoring subscription or downgrade a website’s subscription without cancelling it, Site Quality Monitoring unassigns the subscription, but keeps it active so that you can assign it to another monitored website. For example, when you upgrade your monitored website on a Free subscription, we will unassign your Free subscription, but keep the subscription available to you. Therefore, when you upgrade a monitored website with a Free subscription to use another subscription type, this label will display You have 1 unassigned subscription.
