Quick answer

A well-run **status page** improves transparency and cuts the number of repeat tickets during incidents. The key is to communicate quickly and in simple terms.

## Why you need a status page[](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/infrastructure/incident-status-page#por-que-ter-status-page)

When something fails, customers want to know whether the problem is widespread and when things will be back to normal. A status page answers that without overloading your support team.

## What to publish[](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/infrastructure/incident-status-page#o-que-publicar)

1. A clear incident title.
2. The affected services.
3. The current status of the investigation.
4. The next expected update.
5. Confirmation that service is back to normal.

Avoid too much technical jargon. The message should be clear to anyone who depends on the service.

## Process template[](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/infrastructure/incident-status-page#modelo-de-processo)

* Assign someone to keep the status page updated.
* Standardize the incident message template.
* Connect monitoring to speed up detection.
* Publish a final summary with the cause and preventive actions.

You can combine this flow with [VPS monitoring](https://streethosting.com.br/en/guides/vps/uptime-kuma-vps-monitoring) and alerts in technical channels to speed up your response.
