Expression engine should serve ‘site unavailable’ pages with a 503 header instead of a normal/ok header.
This is very important for both SEO/google ranking as well as caching/load balancing/failover services.

Good catch on that one, afrihost. I’ll bring that one up with the developers. Response headers have been improved in a number of spots, but there are clearly some places it’s still an issue.
