Web Check Hosting Live In 5 Minutes

Web Check hosting runs a website analysis dashboard on your own domain: enter a URL and get DNS records, SSL details, headers, open ports and more in one place. Deploy Web Check 2.3.0 as one stateless pinned container, over HTTPS in minutes. It has no login, so anyone who reaches the address can run the scanner unless you add Basic Auth or an allowlist.

What is Web Check?

Web Check is an all-in-one website analysis dashboard, described upstream as comprehensive, on-demand open source intelligence for any website. You enter a URL and it reports DNS records, SSL chain, HTTP and security headers, open ports, redirects, tech stack, trace route and a screenshot. A self-hosted Web Check is an alternative to pasting domains into online website scanners, released under the MIT licence.

On xCloud it is Web Check 2.3.0 from the official image, pinned by digest, as one stateless container with no database, accounts or volume. xCloud sets the CORS origin to your site and a default block list for private ranges, and serves it over HTTPS. There is no login: anyone who can reach the address can use the scanner, so add access control.

From Sign-Up to a Live Web Check In Just 3 Easy Steps

A Web Check install needs the dashboard, an API, a headless browser, a block list for private ranges, a domain and a certificate before the first scan. This is the same result without assembling any of it.

Step 01
Sign Up
Create your xCloud account and pick Web Check from the OneClick catalog. Choose your domain and target server; the install form has no fields.
Step 02
We Deploy It For You
One click. We start lissy93/web-check:2.3.0, pinned by digest, as one stateless container, set the CORS origin to your site and a default block list for loopback, private, link-local and CGNAT ranges, and publish it over HTTPS.
Step 03
Lock It Down And Scan
Before sharing the address, add Basic Auth or an IP allowlist in front of it, or set API_ENABLE_RATE_LIMIT=true. Then open the site, enter a URL and review the reports. Nothing is stored between scans.

DNS, SSL And Security Headers Checker: Web Check On Your Own Server

Web Check runs here as a stateless scanner, with the checks made from your server and nothing kept afterwards.

DNS And SSL
Reports DNS records and the SSL chain for a domain, so you can see how it is set up from outside.
HTTP And Security Headers
Shows HTTP headers and security headers and redirects, which helps spot missing hardening on a site.
Ports, Tech Stack And Trace Route
Checks open ports, identifies the tech stack and runs a trace route, executed inside the container.
Screenshot
Opens the target in headless Chromium for a screenshot. If a check is unavailable on your server, it is reported as skipped.
Private Ranges Blocked By Default
API_BLOCKED_HOSTS refuses loopback, private, link-local and CGNAT IPv4 ranges as typed. A hostname resolving to a private address is not blocked.
Stateless
Web Check keeps no data between requests: no database, no accounts and no volume. There is nothing to back up.

What You Can Do With Web Check

Audit your own sites quickly
Run DNS, SSL and header checks on domains you own and see what an outsider sees.
Check a client's configuration
Enter a client domain you are authorised to test and review ports, redirects and headers.
Run scans from your own server
Make the lookups from a server you control instead of a third-party scanning website.
Share a checker with your team
Put the dashboard behind Basic Auth so colleagues can check sites without exposing it to everyone.

Web Check vs Alternatives

Online website scanners: As a self-hosted alternative to online website scanners, Web Check makes its lookups from your own server and keeps no scan history, though it has no login of its own.
Gatus: Gatus has its own OneClick page. In a Web Check vs Gatus comparison, Gatus monitors endpoints continuously and alerts, whereas Web Check inspects a site on demand.
Uptime Kuma: Uptime Kuma has its own OneClick page. It tracks whether sites are up over time, while Web Check reports how one is configured right now.
Secrover: Secrover has its own OneClick page. It runs scheduled audits of repositories and domains, whereas Web Check answers one-off questions about a URL.

Hear what people are saying about us

See why agencies, developers, startups, and growing businesses choose xCloud to power their projects.

xCloud works really well, I am surprised by its performance being this the release version, I have tried many paid platforms such as runcloud, cloudpages or serveravatar, as well as free platforms such as CyberPanel, CloudPanel or Hestia Control Panel and direct competitors such as SpinupWP and FlyWP. Of all those that I have tried, the platform that works best for WordPress is SpinupWP and I believe that xCloud can reach and surpass that development, its roadmap is promising. Congratulations to the xCloud team, I hope they become the leading platform in the segment, it has all the potential to achieve it!

Brian Geovanny

I've been with runcloud for the last 3 years. However, after trying xcloud for the last month, I'm switching over. They are on a roll with their setup.

Kevin Pineda

I'm moving my servers to xCloud, a cloud control panel by M Asif Rahman and the WPDeveloper team. Their roadmap looks interesting and no, there are no team mates nor API limits with xCloud! #xCloud #wordpress #hosting

How Cloud Nine Web Elevated Client Experience While Streamlining Hosting Operations using xCloud

Ed Ellingham

xCloud is like having an expert server team on call — without the big agency costs. It's given me back my time and given my clients peace of mind. Highly recommended for freelancers and small teams who want reliable performance and security.

Dumitru Butucel

xCloud isn't just a solution. It's like one of that friend who got your back when you screw things up pretty bad.

Waqar Ahmed

Trust me when I say, once people explore the potential of xCloud they gonna switch from other panels, just keep delivering the best tech, lots of love for the team 😍😍

Rahul Singh

So far my experience has been smooth like silk. I didn't imagine that configuring and managing a VPS would be so easy. As of today, I have deployed 8 sites. The support is good, and they treat users with respect, even if they ask stupid questions (myself included). For the future, I hope for greater flexibility in scheduled backups and more comprehensive and consistent documentation. I'm sure that within a few months, xCloud will become the leader in its segment. This community is amazing, and the Staff here is super helpful.

Massimo Villa

Came from cloudways then to runcloud then to xcloud. Looks like I'm staying here.

Gerson El

I've recently taken all of my Vultr-hosted sites and gotten rid of cPanel for them to substitute it with xCloud. I have to say, I'm really impressed with xCloud so far! The interface is definitely the standout feature for me.

Tony Lewis

I came from Cloudways and won't go back. Highly impressed with xCloud. Glad I gave them a chance.

Jared McDowell

I like xCloud better than RunCloud, but one thing I'll point out is that some years ago RunCloud was hungry for business, the support was outstanding, and the community was active and helped each other. Maybe it was sold, there was a change in management, or they stopped being hungry, but the quality of the RunCloud offering declined and it hasn't been moving forward quickly. My point is that currently the xCloud team has the edge and it is theirs to keep or lose

How Kevin Heinrichs Cut Hosting Costs by 84% While Running WooCommerce & Node.js Sites Efficiently

Kevin Heinrichs

I had 150 sites on cloudways and am in the process of moving them to xcloud. Much faster and better priced.

Dan Spinoza

Dear xCloud Team, I have been using xCloud for some time now and am genuinely impressed with its capabilities and the flexibility it offers by allowing users to bring their own VPS for management. It's a fantastic service, and my experience so far has been very positive. Successful migrated 5 sites on a single server. Xcloud migration tool worked great. There were few hiccups with security plugin like MalCare but disabling the plugin prior to migration worked just fine.

Rahil Maknojia

Came from runcloud. Tried xcloud and never came back.

xCloud gave me what no other hosting platform could: the flexibility of a VPS with the convenience of managed WordPress. As a solo founder running an entire business on one server, that combination is an important unfair advantage.

Frequently Asked Questions

Feel free to contact us with any questions or concerns you may have.

Does Web Check have a login?

No. Web Check has no authentication, so anyone who can reach the site can run every check. The server fetches the address they enter, scans its ports, runs traceroute and opens it in headless Chromium. Add Basic Auth or an IP allowlist before sharing the URL.

Can Web Check scan private networks?

By default no. API_BLOCKED_HOSTS blocks loopback, private, link-local and CGNAT IPv4 ranges. The match is on the address as typed, so a hostname that resolves to a private address is not blocked. Remove ranges only if you need to scan your own network.

How do I limit who can use Web Check?

Put Basic Auth or an IP allowlist in front of the site, which you configure yourself because the template does not enable them. For a public site, set API_ENABLE_RATE_LIMIT=true in the Environment editor and redeploy.

What does Web Check report about a website?

Upstream lists DNS records, the SSL chain, HTTP and security headers, open ports, redirects, tech stack, trace route and a screenshot, among other checks. Some need optional API keys, and a check that cannot run is reported as skipped.

Can you self-host Web Check with Docker?

Yes. Upstream publishes a Docker image, and this template is Web Check Docker hosting without the setup: the 2.3.0 image pinned by digest, a default block list and HTTPS on your own domain, with no volume to manage.

How much RAM does Web Check need?

The manifest asks for 256 MB of RAM, 1 CPU core and 4 GB of disk. Headless Chromium for screenshots adds load when scans run, though the 6 GB plan leaves ample room for other apps.

Does Web Check store scan history?

No. Nothing is stored between requests. The container is stateless, with no database, no accounts and no data volume, so there is nothing to back up and no history of what anyone scanned. Each request runs its checks fresh from your server.

Is Web Check open source?

Yes. Web Check is MIT licensed, so running it has no licence cost. You pay for the Cloud VPS, which gives you a Web Check cloud of your own, and scans originate from that server's address.

Which optional API keys does Web Check use?

Optional settings include SHODAN_API_KEY, GOOGLE_CLOUD_API_KEY, CERTSPOTTER_TOKEN and GITHUB_TOKEN, all commented in the environment file. Add only the ones you need, keep them private, and Save and Redeploy so they apply; none is required for the core checks.

How do I upgrade Web Check?

The install stays on its pinned 2.3.0 image until you adopt a newer template version. Review the upstream notes first. Nothing upgrades automatically, and because Web Check is stateless there is no data to migrate.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. There is no lock-in — cancel any time. Hosting is billed monthly and charged for what you actually use, so when you delete the server the unused balance is refunded to your account, less up to 10% in payment-processing fees.
