How to Build a Public Status Page in 10 Minutes (No Code, No Headaches)

I used to think setting up a status page was going to be a weekend project.

It’s not.

Today, you can create a fully functional, fully branded public status page in 10 minutes or less — no coding, no stress, no need to sell your soul to the DevOps gods.

Here’s how 👇

🧰 What You’ll Need

• 10 minutes of your time

• A free Garmingo Status account (no credit card needed)

• Your app’s URL(s) or endpoints to monitor

That's it.

2. Add Your First Monitor

Monitoring is what powers your status page.

Here’s how:

• Click "Add Monitor"

• Choose your monitor type (HTTP(s), Ping, Port, DNS, Keyword…)

• Set the interval (e.g., every 60 seconds)

• Set your alerting preferences (Slack, Email, Telegram, etc.)

Done.

3. Create Your Public Status Page

Now the magic part:

• Click "Create Status Page"

• Name it (e.g., "Acme Inc. Status")

• Link your monitors to it

• Customize the branding:

  • Add your logo

  • Pick light or dark mode

  • Use your own domain (like status.acme.com)

  • Bonus: Add custom CSS for full control

Hit Publish — and boom, you’re live.

🧠 Why Bother With a Status Page?

Because users hate surprises.

A good status page:

• Builds trust

• Reduces support tickets

• Makes downtime less painful

• Helps you look way more professional (even if you’re just 1 person)

It’s one of the highest ROI moves you can make.
