Protect the rankings you earned

A site that is down does not rank.

Monitoring lives next to your rankings so the cause of a sudden drop is obvious. Every check, change and expiry is logged and shown to the client in their portal.

What you get

Everything in one place.

Uptime checks

Regular checks from multiple servers with response time history and an alert the moment a site stops answering.

DNS change alerts

A record changes, you know. Catch accidental changes, hijacks and migration mistakes before Google does.

Domain and SSL expiry

Expiry dates for every domain and certificate, with amber and red warnings as the date approaches.

Response time trend

Slow sites lose rankings and conversions. Watch response time over time and spot the hosting change that hurt.

Alerts where you work

Email alerts to your team, and a status card in the client portal so the client sees you are on it.

Client visibility

Uptime, DNS and domain cards appear on the client's dashboard with green, amber and red status.

Who it is for

Built for the people doing the work.

Agencies

Know before the client does when a site goes down or a domain is about to lapse.

Site owners

A plain-English alert when the site, DNS or certificate changes.

Developers

Webhooks and an API endpoint so monitoring feeds your own alerting.

How it works

Three steps.

Add the site

Enter the URL and the DNS records to watch. Domain and certificate dates are read automatically.

Choose who is alerted

Your team by email, and optionally the client through their portal.

Sleep

SEO App checks continuously and only talks to you when something changes.

The deep dive

Why it matters.

Downtime is an SEO problem

A site that is down when Googlebot visits loses crawl budget, and a site that is down for a day can lose rankings for weeks. Monitoring belongs next to the rank tracker, so that a drop and an outage show on the same timeline.

DNS and domain changes

Nameserver and record changes are a common cause of sudden traffic loss, and an expired domain is the most expensive mistake an agency can let a client make. SEO App watches the records and the expiry dates and warns ahead of time.

Alerts where you work

Alerts go by email, and outbound webhooks let you route them to Slack, a ticketing system or your own dashboard using the same API that delivers ranking events.

Good to know

Questions

How often are sites checked?
Uptime checks run at regular intervals from more than one location to avoid false alarms. DNS and expiry checks run daily.
Will I know why rankings dropped?
Downtime and DNS changes are logged with timestamps, so a ranking drop can be matched to an outage or a migration in seconds.
Do clients see monitoring?
Yes, if you enable it. Their dashboard shows uptime, DNS and domain status with plain-language chips.
Is monitoring included in the plans?
Monitoring is part of the platform. See the pricing page for monitor limits per tier.
How often is the site checked?
Throughout the day, with each result stored so you can see the uptime history.
Do clients see the status?
Monitoring can be shared to the client portal like any other report, or kept internal to the agency.
Can I get alerts in Slack?
Yes. Use an outbound webhook to send monitoring events to Slack or any endpoint.
