Go Dark

توضیحات

“Go Dark” is a general-purpose, SEO-friendly utility that allows you to easily take your website offline (blackout) in protest of political issues, climate advocacy, net neutrality, censorship opposition, or other custom causes.

When your website is “dark”, it returns a 503 Service Temporarily Unavailable HTTP status code. This informs search engines that the offline state is temporary, preserving your SEO rankings, and provides browsers with a Retry-After header.

    2. Glassmorphism Alert: A stunning backdrop-blurred glass card over vibrant ambient glowing shapes.
    3. Classic Protest: An updated typewriter aesthetic utilizing a dark wood texture.
  • Cause Presets: Quick-load templates for Net Neutrality, Climate Action, censorship opposition, and standard maintenance.
  • Interactive Live Countdown: Real-time Javascript-powered countdown clock showing visitors exactly when your website will return.
