For 25 client websites

For basic uptime alone, 25 HTTP monitors fit within UptimeRobot Free's 50-monitor allowance, with five-minute checks. UptimeRobot's Free-plan guidance permits business and client projects, subject to its Fair Use Policy. Its Terms of Service separately prohibit repackaging or white-labelling its data, alerts and status pages as a standalone or rebranded monitoring service without a separate commercial agreement. Basic client-site monitoring and reselling monitoring under your own brand are different uses.

For uptime, SSL and DNS, our example uses 25 HTTPS monitors plus 25 DNS monitors: 50 slots. UptimeRobot's monitor-count guide explains that SSL checks do not take an extra slot on paid HTTPS monitors, while DNS checks do. Check the paid plan’s supported monitor types and team seats, then confirm a quote before calculating its cost per client.

Sitepulse Growth accommodates these 25 sites in one team, including broken-link and Lighthouse performance checks. Separately billed client teams each need their own subscription.

Compare the checks you actually need

UptimeRobot's SSL documentation confirms that certificate error and expiry monitoring require a paid HTTPS monitor. Extra endpoints and check types can consume additional slots.

HTTP response-time monitoring measures something different from Lighthouse audits and Core Web Vitals. The UptimeRobot plans checked do not list a broken-link crawler or Lighthouse audits, so this monitor estimate does not include either.

Sitepulse Growth's minimum interval is five minutes for uptime, SSL and DNS, and 12 hours for broken links and performance. Check interval, team access and client status-page requirements matter alongside the unit price.
