Status pages are the cheapest customer-trust upgrade you can ship in a single afternoon. Here's how to do it on Valpero from a clean account.
What you'll have at the end
- A public page at
https://valpero.com/status/yourname - Your monitors visible with live status, 30-day uptime and response history
- Email subscribers who get notified when an incident opens or resolves
- Atom feed for monitoring tools / RSS readers
Step 1 — Add the monitors you want public
Dashboard → Monitors → Add monitor. Add the URLs you want shown. For each, make sure Show on status page is enabled (it is by default).
Step 2 — Create the status page
Dashboard → Status page → Create.
- Slug — short and recognizable. Becomes part of your URL.
- Title — your company name.
- Logo URL — optional; transparent PNG ≤ 200×60 looks best.
Step 3 — Customize
Three knobs that punch above their weight:
- Logo — direct image URL.
- Custom CSS — paste a single rule like
:root { --brand: #ff6600 }to match your brand. Ignored if it can't be parsed. - Announcement banner — yellow stripe at the top for "scheduled maintenance Saturday 02:00 UTC".
Step 4 — Share the link
Drop valpero.com/status/yourname into your help-center footer, your
404 page, your email signature. The page auto-detects the visitor's
language (en/ru/de/es/fr/pt/sk).
Step 5 — Subscribers (optional)
The page has a built-in subscribe box. Anyone who confirms their email gets notified the moment an incident opens or resolves. Their preferred language is auto-detected from their browser.
