What does Lemwatch monitor?

Lemwatch runs 20+ automated checks per site: uptime, response time, SSL/TLS expiry, domain expiry, DNS changes, sitemap health, broken links, content changes, SEO audits, mobile usability, security headers, and more.

Yes. The free tier monitors up to 5 sites. Pro is $19/month for 50 sites and Agency is $59/month for 100 sites, both with full feature access.

How is Lemwatch different from UptimeRobot or Pingdom?

Lemwatch bundles uptime, change detection, SEO audits, security scans, and a public API in one platform — features competitors charge separately for. It also includes team workspaces, white-labelled status pages, and a webhook system out of the box.

Does Lemwatch send alerts?

Yes. Lemwatch supports email, browser push, webhooks, and per-site notification routing so the right person hears about the right incident.

Is there a public API?

Yes. Pro and Agency plans get a public REST API with webhooks for sites, checks, incidents, and reports.

Bypassing bot protection for Lemwatch checks

Configure bot-management platforms (Cloudflare, DataDome, PerimeterX, Akamai) so Lemwatch checks succeed without weakening security.

Quick answer

Add Lemwatch's IP ranges and Lemwatch/1.0 User-Agent to your bot-management platform's allow-list. Every major vendor supports IP + UA rules; you do not need to disable protection globally.

What this fixes

Bot challenges returning 200 HTML instead of your real page
"Access denied" 403s only from Lemwatch
Fake "content changed" alerts caused by challenge pages
Login walls appearing on public pages

FAQ

Won't attackers spoof the Lemwatch User-Agent?

Only if they also come from our published IPs — which are locked to our infrastructure.

Do I still need to whitelist the IPs at the firewall?

Yes — bot management and firewalls are separate layers. See IP whitelisting.
