Sitemap monitoring for new pages and broken URLs
Watch your own sitemap or a competitor. Catch new pages, removed pages, and broken URLs.
Sitemap monitoring for URL changes and page health
Track new and removed pages, find broken URLs in your sitemap, monitor automatically, and export the history. SeoAsh watches sitemap URLs, not on-page copy.
Monitor sitemaps automatically
Keep sitemaps on a schedule so you see URL changes without checking them by hand.
Track added and removed URLs
See when pages are added or removed from a sitemap.
Sitemap page health
Find listed pages that are missing or returning errors. For competitors, follow new and removed URLs only.
New page and dead URL alerts
Get alerts when URLs are added or removed, or when a listed page starts returning an error.
Review history and export
Inspect scan history and export diffs, URL lists, and logs.
