Make sure Google, ChatGPT and every other bot can actually find your site.
A complete look at what RobotsGuard watches, how it spots changes, and the infrastructure behind every scan.
Six signals. Watched continuously. Compared precisely.
Every fetch is stored. Every change is compared to what it should be, so you know exactly what changed and when.
robots.txt
The gatekeeper file
Fetched and stored on every scan cycle with full change history, line-level diffs, and instant alerts on any modification.
When your signals contradict each other, we know who wins.
Every conflict comes with a plain-English explanation, an impact description, and a recommended fix.
robots.txt vs meta robots
Catches when a page is crawl-allowed but tagged noindex, or blocked while flagged for indexing.
Meta robots vs X-Robots-Tag
Detects contradictions between on-page directives and HTTP-level headers.
Canonical → noindex page
Flags canonical tags pointing to a URL that's blocked or marked noindex.
Disallowed but indexable
Pages blocked in robots.txt that still carry an index directive. Google's worst-case scenario.
Severity scoring
Each conflict is auto-rated info / warning / critical based on indexing impact.
Conflict history per URL
See every conflict the URL has ever had, with timestamp and resolution status.
Every conflict ships with an explanation, an impact description, and a recommended fix, written for humans, not crawlers.
50+ named crawlers, fully understood.
From Googlebot to GPTBot to Perplexity, we know who they are, what they want, and which rules apply to them.

Results you can trust

Knows your stack before you tell it.
We tune scan behavior, stagger delays, and header parsing based on what's actually serving your site.
Auto-detected from response
Inferred from HTML, headers, and fingerprints. Zero config.
CDN intelligence
Identifies your edge layer to interpret cache headers correctly.
JS rendering detection
Knows when content depends on client-side rendering.

The right alert. The right person. The right time.
No spam. No noise. Just timely, grouped, escalation-aware notifications that respect your inbox.
