Check the Accessibility Of a Website In Every Country

Yesterday, I had a long discussion with one of our clients from Brooklyn about checking the visibility of his website in different parts of the world. His name is Matthew Band, and he is a realtor and long-time client of CoreNetworkZ Tech Solutions.

My company developed websites and custom software tools for his local and foreign businesses. He has business in multiple locations, and websites are crucial.

Matthew Band wanted to check if any country blocked his website. So, he wanted to know whether he could check his website in different countries.

I introduced him to a few tools that show the test results of the website's status in various countries.

I understand that many website owners share Matthew's question. I received more than a dozen similar questions in the comment section of my previous articles.

One of my regular readers, Nick Martin, commented more than five times requesting a list of tools to check his blog in different parts of the world. So, I will answer Nick Martin in this section.

We can check the outlook of blogs and websites from different countries and cities with the help of a few web tools. Let me share some of them in this article.

If you are a webmaster, it is critical to make sure your site is accessible in all countries. Some countries are notorious for filtering websites with certain types of content.

This tutorial introduces a handful of online tools to test the availability of a domain in various countries.

These tools also help you analyze the domain status, whether the website is up or down, etc. Now, let us check the tools.

3.  Watch Mouse

   Watch Mouse is a free online tool that connects with different workstations (located in multiple countries).

   Watch Mouse works on ping replies sent from workstations in various countries.

   Watch Mouse cannot tell the exact status of a website that blocks the ping reply feature. The output of the ping operation done by Watch Mouse looks like this;

   

   This screenshot shows the test results of CoreNetworkZ.com when I used this tool to check the status. You can open this tool by visiting this link:

   In addition to the status check, Watch Mouse provides some more tools to check the vulnerability of the web server, load tests, etc.

   
   
4. Website Test behind the Great Firewall of China by Website Pulse

   Tami Shelly asked for an advanced tool to test her website status. I suggest to her websitepulse.com.

   It is an advanced tool compared to the Watch Mouse.

   Website Pulse connects to your site and downloads the complete HTML web page. The total response time shows how long it takes to download the website. Let us check the availability of a blog in China using this service.

   I test www.corenetworkz.com with this tool. The connection test from Shanghai and Seattle is listed. The output of the test looks like below.

5. JustPing

   The fifth tool I introduce for checking the website's availability in any country is JustPing. However, I would mention one negative point first.

   • Show Post Summaries on Blogger Blog Home Page
   • How to Make an SEO-Friendly Blogger Template?
   • Setup Free Email Accounts With GoDaddy Domain Name

   Like Watch Mouse, this service also treats a blog with a blocked ping request as unavailable. So if one webmaster disabled the ping reply feature as part of security, only 'Website Pulse' can be used to test his sites.

   This screenshot shows the results of my testing with JustPing. I checked the availability of www.CoreNetworkZ.com in multiple countries with JustPing.
