Website SEO and security monitoring with scheduled re-scans

Save your sites, verify that you control them and let RedSentinel scan again every week or month. You see what is new, what is fixed and when a certificate is about to expire.

What monitoring reports

Each scheduled scan is compared with the previous complete one.

  • New and resolved findings

    A finding that appears or disappears between two scans becomes a change event. A failed or partial scan is never treated as a fix.

  • Score movement

    Security or SEO scores that move by a meaningful number of points are flagged, in both directions.

  • Certificate expiry

    You are warned as a certificate crosses the 30, 14 and 7 day thresholds, and again if it has expired.

  • SEO regressions

    A sharp SEO score fall, or a new critical indexing, robots, canonical or redirect issue, is raised as a regression.

How to set it up

Three steps, no installation.

  • Add and verify a site

    Register the URL, then prove control with a DNS TXT record or a meta tag. Recurring scans require verification by default.

  • Pick a schedule

    Choose weekly or monthly. Nothing runs more often than every seven days, and the first scan sets the baseline.

  • Review changes and notifications

    Events appear on the site page. A signed webhook is available, and email notifications depend on how the service is configured.

Designed to avoid noise

Monitoring is useful only if the alerts stay worth reading.

  • Baseline first

    The first scan of a site creates a reference and does not raise events, apart from certificate expiry.

  • Cooldown and deduplication

    The same event is not repeated within your cooldown window, so a flapping finding does not flood you.

  • Per-event preferences

    Switch individual event types on or off in your notification settings.

What monitoring is, and what it is not

Scheduled re-scans are not uptime monitoring or a real-time alerting system.

  • Scheduled security and SEO re-scans

    The same checks as the public scanner, run weekly or monthly on saved sites with change detection.

  • Signed webhook notifications

    Change digests can be posted to an HTTPS endpoint with an HMAC signature.

  • Email notifications

    Delivery depends on the email provider being configured for the service. If it is not, deliveries are recorded as skipped.

    Partly covered

  • Real-time, uptime and performance monitoring

    The shortest interval is seven days. Outages, response times and live traffic are not monitored.

  • Ranking and AI citation tracking

    Search positions and mentions in AI answers are not tracked.

Monitoring questions

Is this real-time monitoring?

No. Scans run on a weekly or monthly schedule. It is built to catch configuration drift and regressions, not outages.

Do I need an account?

Yes. Saved sites, schedules and notifications belong to an account. The public scanner needs no account.

How do I verify that I control a website?

Add a DNS TXT record named _redsentinel-verify on your domain, or place a redsentinel-verify meta tag on the page, then ask RedSentinel to check.

Which changes trigger a notification?

New findings, resolved findings, severity changes, score improvements and regressions, SEO regressions and certificate expiry tiers.

Can I monitor a competitor's website?

No. Recurring scans require a verified site by default, and you should only scan sites you are authorised to assess.
