Hosting uptime refers to the percentage of time the host is easy to get from their host. a lot of provider claim that they provide Uptime  for a 99.9% , but there may be server restarts and planned (or unplanned) maintenance in any type of hosting surroundings which may cause more downtime.

A general claim from the well-known hosting providers is ‘99% or 99.9% server uptime’ but this frequently refers only to a server being power-driven on and doesn’t account for network downtime. Real downtime can potentially be larger than the percentage guaranteed by the provider. A lot of providers tie uptime, and convenience, into their own Service Level Agreement, or SLA. SLAs may or may not include refunds, or reduced costs if performance goals are not met. Therefore it is important from your side to confirm from your host providers about the uptime guarantee before you buy a hosting package from them.
