Track any web page, or just the part that matters
Point a page monitor at a single URL, target the exact section you care about, and pick how often it is checked. When a real change is confirmed you get a screenshot, a before and after diff, and a plain-English AI summary.
Monitor a page in a few seconds
Paste any page URL and watch SiteGauge capture it. Pick the area to track and set an alert, right here. No sign-up needed to look.
What a page monitor captures
A page monitor does more than tell you something changed. Every confirmed change on the page comes with the evidence to see what moved and decide whether it matters.
A fresh screenshot
When a change is confirmed, SiteGauge loads the page in a real browser and captures it, so you see the page exactly as it looked when the change was caught.
Visual change monitoringA before and after visual diff
Compare the old and new screenshots with slider, side by side, fade, and difference-overlay views. Desktop and mobile capture is available per monitor.
Screenshot comparisonA track-changes text diff
Every added, removed, or edited line of the page content is highlighted inline, so you can read exactly what wording moved without hunting for it.
URL monitoringSEO and metadata changes
Title, meta description, H1, canonical, meta robots, schema markup, and hreflang are tracked even when the visible body of the page is unchanged.
Track SEO elementsA plain-English AI summary
SiteGauge categorises the change, scores its importance, and explains what moved and why. AI summaries are on every plan and never metered.

Change alert workflowSet up a page monitor in three steps
Pointing SiteGauge at a page takes a minute. From there it runs on its own and only speaks up when there is a real change to report.
Point a monitor at any page
Paste the URL of the single page you want to watch. Each page becomes its own monitor with its own change history, separate from every other page you track.
Choose the part to watch
Track the whole page, or use CSS selector rules to target just one section, and exclude the parts that always change, like a cookie banner or a rotating hero.
Set the frequency and let it run
Pick how often the page is checked, from daily to as fast as every 2 minutes by plan. When a real change is confirmed you get a screenshot, a diff, and an alert.
Watch just the section that matters
Most pages have parts that never sit still: a cookie banner, a rotating hero, a live visitor count. With CSS selector ignore rules you decide exactly what a page monitor pays attention to, so a reworded footer never wakes you up but a price change does.
- Include a single section, like a pricing table or an announcement block, and ignore everything else on the page.
- Exclude the noisy parts that always change, so alerts stay meaningful instead of constant.
- On top of that, every change is scored for importance by AI, so a trivial edit stays quiet and a real one stands out.

.pricing-table#cookie-banner.hero-carouselOnly changes inside the tracked selector raise an alert. Everything in an ignore rule is filtered out before the diff.
Choose how often each page is checked
A page monitor is not a live stream and does not send push notifications. It checks on a cadence set by your plan, and you are alerted as soon as a check confirms a genuine change. Faster plans check more often.
A page monitor is not a domain crawl or a one-off checker
These three do different jobs. A page monitor is the right tool when you want one page watched over time, with a full history you can look back on.
A page monitor
Watches one page, or one section of it, on a schedule. It keeps a full history of every change with screenshots and diffs, and alerts you when something moves.
You are hereA whole-domain monitor
Tracks a whole site or sitemap with a tiered per-page cadence, and can add new pages automatically. Under the hood each page is still its own page monitor.
Website monitoringA one-off page checker
Takes a single snapshot right now with no schedule and no history. Handy for a quick look, but it will not tell you when the page changes later.
Free checker toolsWho tracks single pages
Anyone who has one page that must not change quietly. Start with a page monitor, then scale up to whole-site monitoring when you need it.
SEO specialists
Watch one high-value landing page for a stripped canonical, an added noindex, or a rewritten title, weeks before it surfaces in Search Console.
Competitive and product teams
Track a rival pricing or feature page and share the history with unlimited free read-only viewers, so the whole team sees the same change.
Content and legal owners
Keep an eye on a terms page, a policy, or a supplier's spec sheet, and get a track-changes diff the day a single clause or number is edited.
Stop reloading that one page by hand
Checking a page yourself works until the day you forget. A page monitor never forgets.
Checking by hand
- x Open the page and squint for what moved
- x Notice the change days after it shipped
- x A generic diff tool pings on every reworded line
- x No screenshot, no history, no idea if it matters
With a page monitor
- The page is checked automatically on your schedule
- Alerted as soon as a check confirms a real change
- Selector rules and AI keep trivial edits quiet
- Screenshot, diff, and full history on every change
