<p>I need to find website is running in c#
I am passing the website on port 80.</p>

<p>I am using the following code in c#</p>

<pre><code>HttpWebRequest request = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create("http://tester.co.tt");
HttpWebResponse response = (HttpWebResponse)request.GetResponse();
</code></pre>

<p>I have given invalid website address, then also i am getting response is OK.</p>

<p>How can we check website is running?</p>

<p>I am getting the response.StatusCode is OK.
when i browse the site,it is not avialable.</p>
