    How do I monitor my website from multiple countries?

    Pick a monitor that probes from at least 5 continents, enable multi-region checks, and require confirmation from 2 regions before alerting — this catches CDN edge failures and regional ISP peering issues that single-region monitors miss.

    • AWS and Cloudflare edge outages typically affect one region while others stay green.
    • Latency deltas between regions (e.g. Frankfurt 120 ms vs Sydney 900 ms) reveal CDN misconfiguration.
    • Compliance frameworks (SOC 2, ISO 27001) increasingly require multi-region monitoring evidence.
    • Regional check schedules should be staggered, not synchronous, to spread origin load.

    Step-by-step

    1. 1
      Enable multi-region

      Turn on probes in at least 5 continents so a single edge outage cannot fake a green status.

    2. 2
      Require 2-region confirmation

      Configure the alert rule to fire only when 2 regions independently see the failure.

    3. 3
      Stagger the schedule

      Offset each region's start time so probes do not all hit the origin at the same second.

    4. 4
      Review regional latency monthly

      Compare per-region response times — outliers usually point to a CDN pop misconfiguration.
