What HTTP Status Checker does
Half the questions about a broken page are answered by the status code: a 404 where a 200 was expected, a 301 pointing at the wrong place, a 503 that says the server is up but refusing. This bot gives you that plus the response headers, which is where caching, security and redirect problems show themselves.
It is a working tool for anyone who owns a site - a developer checking a deploy, an SEO specialist tracing a redirect chain, a support person confirming that a page really is down and not just down for one visitor. The author is named in the bot's own description.

FAQ
Can it tell me if my site is down for everyone?
It shows what one server sees. That rules out your own network, but a region-specific outage needs a monitoring service with several locations.
Why do the headers matter?
Caching, security policy and the redirect target all live there, so a page that looks fine can still be misconfigured in a way only the headers reveal.
