The Things That Break When You’re Not Looking

You’ve got auto-update monitoring. Great. But some problems don’t come from updates. These happen randomly. Silently. Often at the worst times. By the time someone notices, the damage is done.

Hacked sites: Defacement, malware injection, SEO spam

SSL expiration: Browser warnings scare visitors away

Third-party failures: That review widget, chat plugin, or payment gateway stops working

Scheduled Screenshots, Automatic Comparison

Set up continuous monitoring and get 24/7 eyes on every site. Without hiring someone to sit and watch.

We take screenshots at your chosen interval (15 min to 24 hours)

Each new screenshot is compared to the last “known good” state

If changes exceed your threshold, you get alerted

If everything’s fine, you hear nothing

How Continuous Monitoring Works

Configure your schedule once, then forget about it. We handle everything automatically.

Configure Your Schedule: Choose interval (15 min to 24 hours) and time preferences

Automatic Capture & Compare: Every interval, we capture, compare, analyze, and alert

Smart Alerting: Below threshold? Logged. Above threshold? You get an email with comparison link

Hacked & Defaced Sites

Visual comparison immediately shows content that shouldn’t be there. Time to detection: Minutes (at 15-min intervals) vs. hours or days without monitoring.

SSL Certificate Issues

Screenshot shows browser warning instead of site content. You find out before Google de-indexes the site.

Third-Party Widget Failures

Visual comparison shows missing or broken elements when external services go down or change their embed.

CDN & Media Issues

Screenshots show exactly what visitors see: broken images, missing CSS or blank sections.

Database & Server Issues

Visual comparison shows missing sections, error messages, white screens, and partial page loads immediately.

Tiered Monitoring Strategy

Not all sites need the same attention. Match monitoring intensity to business impact.

Website 1: Critical (15-30 min): E-commerce checkout, high-traffic landing pages, lead generation forms, client sites with SLAs

Website 2: Important (1-3 hours): Main website pages, blog homepages, product category pages, active campaign pages

Website 3: Standard (6-24 hours): Brochure sites, low-traffic pages, archived content, internal tools

The Weekend Hack

Friday 6pm: You leave for the weekend.
Saturday 2:10am: Attacker exploits plugin vulnerability.
Saturday 2:15am: WebChange Detector alert — “47% change on homepage”.
Saturday 8:20: You check notifications, see the alert.
Saturday 8:45am: Site cleaned, vulnerability patched.
Monday: No one noticed. Business as usual.

Without monitoring: Client discovers Monday, site’s been hacked for 2 days, Google’s flagged it as malware.

The Silent Failure

Tuesday 3pm: Third-party review widget provider has outage.
Tuesday 3:15pm: Alert — “Reviews section empty”.
Tuesday 3:30pm: You add CSS to hide the section temporarily.
Wednesday: Widget provider fixes issue, you restore section.

Without monitoring: Reviews missing for 3 days. Nobody told you. Conversion rate dropped.

The Gradual Drift

Week 1: Minor styling inconsistency (below threshold, logged).
Week 2: Another small change (below threshold, logged).
Week 3: Cumulative changes hit threshold, alert sent.

You investigate: Theme update three weeks ago introduced progressive rendering issue.
You fix: Would’ve been worse without early warning.

Frequently Asked Questions

How many checks per day does monitoring use?

Depends on interval and page count. Daily check, 10 pages, 2 devices = 10 checks/day. Hourly check, 10 pages, 2 devices = 240 checks/day. Plan accordingly. Critical pages hourly, others daily.

Can I pause monitoring temporarily?

Yes, per group. Useful during planned maintenance or redesigns.

Does monitoring affect site performance?

No. We request pages like any visitor. No server-side impact.
