My start up went through several stages of site monitoring. First I'd set up a script that curled a couple URLs and emailed me if it didn't work. I wanted slightly more sophisticated monitoring and I wanted text messages. So I tried to install Nagios. It was a pain and I never got it set up.
Then SiteCanary posted their launch here. I signed up that day and never thought about monitoring again. It's worth every penny (and it's really cheap). I'm sure I'd otherwise be spending at least an hour a month on monitoring.
