Question

Since my server is running off my personal laptop, it has quite a lot of down time. Is it possible to have a page that shows up when someone tries to access the site while the server is offline?

No correct solution

OTHER TIPS

Yes, with another server. You can't show pages without server.

If your server is unreachable, then the user browser shows a default page that explains that your server is unreachable...

With an external service (external server) it is possible. A lot of ways to do it. Look for solutions about load balancing for example.

But only with apache on your laptop, I think it is impossible.
