Descripción
UP Globe is a WordPress plugin that allows you to test your website’s speed and availability from real devices across the world (200 countries / territories) using residential IP addresses. It measures Time to First Byte (TTFB) per country, helping you identify regions where your website is slow, blocked, or degraded.
Key Features:
* Visualize global performance via dynamic charts.
* Test site access from behind firewalls, bans, or CDN blocks.
* Each country performs its own DNS lookup, so CDN-based sites are tested against the actual edge node used in that region.
Who Is It For?
If you serve an international audience or want to verify if your content is truly available globally, UP Globe gives you insights from real users in real places — not just data center probes.
Third-Party Libraries:
UP Globe uses the following open source libraries:

Freemium Model
UP Globe is free to use with no signup required. Each WordPress installation receives 250 free monitoring credits every week. These credits are automatically refreshed and can be used to run global availability and performance checks from real devices in over 200 countries.
If you require more checks than the free weekly quota allows, you can optionally purchase additional credits through our platform. There are no subscriptions — you only pay for what you need.
The core plugin remains fully functional with the free tier. Once the quota is exhausted, checks will pause until the next weekly reset or until additional credits are added. No features are hidden behind a paywall, and no data is locked or lost due to quota limits.
Contact & Support
If you have questions or need support, please email support@up-globe.com.

FAQ
-
How does UP Globe measure website performance?
-
UP Globe measures Time to First Byte (TTFB) from real residential IP addresses in over 200 countries, providing real-world data about your site’s responsiveness worldwide.
Each test originates from a genuine local IP address — resolved and routed exactly as it would be for a user in that country. This means that your WordPress site is reached via the actual IP returned by local DNS resolution in the test country, ensuring correct CDN edge selection and bypassing geo-based blocks or firewall rules.
This unique approach gives you accurate insights into how your website behaves globally — especially when served through CDNs, country-specific restrictions, or caching layers.
You can also verify each check directly in your web server access logs — look for requests using the custom user agent that includes "up-globe" and the URL (+https://up-globe.com) -
Does this plugin connect to an external service?
-
Yes. UP Globe connects to https://api.up-globe.com to run global performance tests and display monitoring results.
-
Can I leave the plugin page after starting a check?
-
Yes. Once you start a check, it runs externally on our monitoring infrastructure.
You can safely close the browser, navigate to another page, or even shut down your device — the check will continue running in the background.
Results will be available in the plugin interface once the check completes.
There’s no need to keep the plugin page open. -
Can I use UP Globe for free?
-
Yes! Each WordPress installation gets 250 free monitoring credits weekly. Additional credits can be purchased.
-
How does UP Globe handle privacy?
-
UP Globe does not collect any personal data. Each installation has a random license ID for API communication only. No cookies or tracking scripts are used.
