How it Works
KeepAliveForever is a service that simulates a person going to your site every 5-10 minutes.  It does not run in ASP.NET (but it is written in .NET) and is immune to being unloaded by the server.  KeepAliveForever lets you specify URLs that you want the server to look at.  Every five minutes the server will go out and browse your URLs.  This keeps your sites from ever unloading.
How Other Products Work
There are a number of other "products" out there that claim to do what KeepAliveForever does, however, they all have one MAJOR problem - they all run on your site as either an entry in the web.config or a module or some other manual configuration.  That's a big problem.

Let's think about this for a minute.  If ASP.NET hasn't started on your server yet, how will some addon product keep it from stopping?  If ASP.NET has unloaded your site, how is your site going to load itself back up?  If your hosting server has rebooted, how is ASP.NET going to know to start loading your site as soon as its online?

That's simple - ASP.NET CAN'T!
How Is It Different?
KeepAliveForever is a Service that Works instead of a Product that Fails.  KeepAliveForever doesn't require that you install any special software or make any arcane tweaks to your web.config files.  All you have to do is give it your site's URL and it will make sure that it is always online.  So what do you do if you want your site to run faster?

That's Simple - Use KeepAliveForever!
