Recently, Glitch stopped accepting requests from UptimeRobot to keep projects online. They're now only holding 24/7 projects with the $10/month premium plan. With that type of price, you could pay for a real VPS and not need to use Glitch.
To transfer your project from Glitch to Replit, create a free Replit account and then go to the Glitch Import Page. You will have to use Repl.it as your IDE now.
-
Make sure your Glitch project is public (so repl.it can copy it) and paste the
glitch.com/edit/#!/project-name
link into the box. -
The language automatically defaults to Linux Bash. Change the program language to Node.js.
-
When everything is set up, you can enable UptimeRobot for your Repl (using this domain) since they don't block it. And, that's it! Your project will now be online 24/7.
This method will let you continue using Glitch as an IDE, but it's against Glitch terms of service so I'm not responsible if you get in trouble for using it.
-
Go to the Github Import Page and put
github.com/whasonyt/glitch247
in the box. Change the program language to Node.js. -
Find this part of the code and add your own sites in. If you're using this for Glitch projects, enter the
project-name.glitch.me
domain. -
When everything is set up, you can enable UptimeRobot for your Repl (using this domain) since they don't block it. And, that's it! Your project will now be online 24/7 by using Repl.it as the middle-man.
