I find

https://www.downnotifier.com/?ref=700351

really good for monitoring a website. The basic service is free, and it
will send an email if a certificate is soon to expire. It also gives you
the uptime percentage over various periods of time. I pay about $15/year
for the premium monitoring, which sends me text alerts if the website goes
down. The nice thing about that site is it looks for specific text on a
webpage (in my case I set it to be "attenuator"). That means it reports an
error, even if the server responded with a missing page, internal error or
similar
