Frequently Asked Questions
What is sitemap monitoring and why do I need it?
Sitemap monitoring tracks changes to your XML sitemap file that search engines use to discover and index your content. Without monitoring, you won't know if URLs are missing, added incorrectly, or if your sitemap becomes frozen (stops updating), which can severely impact your search engine visibility.
What is frozen sitemap detection?
Frozen sitemap detection is our unique feature that alerts you when your sitemap hasn't changed for an unusually long period (configurable, e.g., 30 days). This often indicates CMS issues, plugin problems, or forgotten maintenance that prevents new content from being included in your sitemap.
How does PageRadar detect sitemap changes?
We use advanced content hashing and URL-level comparison to detect even the smallest changes. Our system tracks URL additions, removals, modifications, and analyzes patterns to categorize changes (blog posts, products, pages) with intelligent impact assessment.
Can I monitor sitemaps for multiple websites?
Yes! PageRadar supports unlimited sitemap monitoring across all your websites from a single dashboard. Each site can have different monitoring frequencies (daily/weekly) and custom frozen sitemap detection settings.
What happens if my sitemap is password-protected or behind a firewall?
PageRadar includes an advanced fallback system with proxy support and multiple access methods to ensure reliable monitoring even for protected sitemaps. If direct access fails, we automatically try alternative methods to reach your sitemap.
How quickly will I be notified of sitemap changes?
You'll receive instant email notifications as soon as changes are detected during our monitoring checks (daily or weekly, based on your settings). Email reports include detailed before/after comparisons, change statistics, and actionable recommendations.
