What to do if Ultimate guitar is not working for you
Is it them or you?
Our last check reached ultimate-guitar.com normally, from a different network, resolver and route than yours. If it is broken for you, the fault is most likely local or too narrow for a single probe to see. Our next automated check runs within 20 minutes and this page updates with it.
The first thing worth trying
Use reader mode. It bypasses most of the machinery that actually failed, and the article itself is usually being served perfectly.
How news & media services typically fail
The page half-loads: Text appears and the layout never settles, or the article renders and the live blog does not update. Cached versions work while anything personalised fails. The rest of the steps, and why this category breaks the way it does, are on our news & media status page, with more background in what a 504 gateway timeout means.
The link below unfurls into a live card showing the verdict, so whoever you send it to sees the evidence rather than your word for it.
Put a live badge on your own site
An SVG that always shows Ultimate guitar’s current state, updated from our checks. Works in a README, a status dashboard or a footer.
Free, no account, and it will keep working. We ask nothing in return beyond the link back.

An expired certificate stops browsers loading a site entirely while the server itself stays perfectly healthy, which is why we track it beside the uptime figure.
