Public status page
Visitors can see the health story behind the badge.
The public status page is accessible through the WordPress Secure Website Badge and displays the monitored signals that matter to trust: uptime, SSL certificate status, core file integrity, and performance metrics.
What the status page displays
Clear signals for people who care about reliability.
The badge points to useful evidence instead of asking visitors to take security claims on faith.
Uptime statistics
Shows the percentage of time your site has been operational, helping visitors understand reliability.
SSL certificate status
Displays SSL status and expiration context so visitors can see that secure transmission is being watched.
Core file integrity
Monitors WordPress core files for unauthorized changes that can indicate malware or security issues.
Performance metrics
Includes response time and load-time signals to demonstrate that the site is optimized for access.
Health grades
The badge translates monitoring data into an easy score.
WPMissionControl uses monitored signals such as uptime, downtime incidents, SSL certificate validity, and core file integrity to calculate the website health and performance grade shown on the public page.

SEO and transparency
The public page can help more than trust.
The public status page creates a transparent reference URL for visitors, clients, and marketing teams. It can support trust-focused content and documentation without replacing core SEO work. Premium plans can also use the article feature with an HTML editor to make the status page more useful and attractive.
Public reference page and article support
The status page helps show that your website is actively monitored while also creating a useful public URL for credibility, client communication, and trust-focused documentation.
