Is WordPress.com down? Official status page, recent incidents and alerts
Seeing errors from WordPress.com? Check automatticstatus.com, where WordPress.com posts outages and degraded-service notices, before you spend an hour debugging your own setup. Because WordPress.com's status page exposes an incident feed, you do not have to keep a browser tab open; a tool can watch the feed for you.

What this page is not
This page is not a live checker. It does not test WordPress.com for you, and the table above is a snapshot from 2026-11-08, so it may already be out of date. Vendors can be slow to acknowledge an outage, and a problem on your network or account will never show on a status page. For the current state, open the official page linked above.
