Would you like to know every time a new page is added to your website, or when a page is removed? Our new tool Sitemap Change Alerts was built to track website changes and notify you any time a new page is added or removed from your website.
It works by checking your sitemap once per hour. If any URLs are added or removed, you will get an email with the change details.
Why We Built A Tool To Track Website Changes:
Quickly Ensure You’ve Included A Title, Description, Unique URL, and OG Image On All Pages
New pages are often created by duplicating existing pages. This is an easy way to get a new, similar page started. But, we’ve seen pages with “Copy” in the Page Title, URLs that look like website.com/example-path-2, as well as duplicate descriptions and OG images.
Or, if you’re starting from scratch, you might completely forget small steps such as adding an SEO-friendly description and including an OG image.
These little details are easy to forget when creating new pages, but they add up across your website to either help or hurt SEO and user experience.
Help Your Marketing Team Manage A Large Number Of Webpages
We’ve also seen teams run into challenges when pages are accidentally turned to Draft or unpublished by mistake—or, when draft pages are prematurely published.
Having an alert for a project manager or marketing director provides quick visibility into what pages are being published and unpublished and can provide peace of mind.
Use It To Track Competitor Websites
Aside from monitoring your own site, why not get alerts for your competitors’ sites? How often are they publishing new resources or launching new products? Zelolab’s Sitemap Change Detector simply monitors publically available sitemaps and alerts you of any updates.
This could be used for personal interest too. Get alerted when your favorite brand drops a new product!
