My discord bot functions perfectly fine with all the commands and code running properly, but I am unable to visit my bot’s site to ping it every 5 mins and keep the bot online. The bot’s glitch.com site is: http://kotori-v1.glitch.me/
I believe the problem is irrelevant to my coding, any help is appreciated. Thank in advance.

Hey @3chospirits,
There is an alternative to keep the bot online without you having to visit it manually every five minutes, something that we all usually do: UptimeRobot. So Uptime Robot automatically pings your website every five minutes and here’s how you do it:
-
You’ll need to create an account (it completely free) on Uptime Robot by clicking the Sign-up
button on the top right of the website.
-
Sign into the account and head to the dashboard
-
Click on Add a new monitor
-
Make sure you select HTTP(S) as the monitor type!
-
Enter a name, that will help you remember the site it is monitoring
-
For the url, put your glitch projects link! https://projectname.glitch.me
-
Make sure the monitoring interval is 5 minutes (the lowest it can go)
-
Click on Create Monitor
!
Hope this helps!
