Technically flawless. Rank better.

Yes, in the project you can create your own Visibility Index, which is calculated based on the stored keywords and updated daily. At least one keyword must be crawled daily for this to work. The option can then be activated in the project settings. Important: the daily keyword monitoring must have been running for at least seven days before the option is displayed.

In the project you can update your own keywords daily or query them for a specific city. You can add new keywords either when creating the project or afterwards under "Rankings > Keywords" via the "Add keywords" button.

For the regular availability check of your project, we access the homepage once per minute. This ensures that availability is continuously and accurately measured. In the project settings under "Crawler" you can disable this per-minute check at any time.

Tags let you sort and organise keywords. They work like flexible folders: a keyword can be assigned to multiple tags, and the evaluations in the project can then be filtered based on these tag collections. A separate Visibility value is also calculated for each tag. The number of tags available depends on the number of keywords in the project, ranging from 25 for small projects to 500 for very large ones.

By default, the on-page crawler uses a pool of available servers and IP addresses to crawl all projects as quickly and efficiently as possible. However, you can also activate a fixed IP address in the expert settings of your project. The crawler will then use exclusively the address shown there.

The individual keyword tracking supports over 200 country and language combinations. The full list is shown to you in the project when adding new keywords.

The on-page crawler uses the user agent "Mozilla/5.0 (compatible; Optimizer)" by default. You can adjust it as needed in the expert settings of your project. Access comes from IP addresses whose reverse DNS entry resolves to *.crawler.sistrix.net – this allows you to verify that the accesses are genuinely from us.

In the project, you will find the "Onpage" tab at the top. There you will find the "Restart crawler" button, which can be used to trigger the crawl manually.

Yes, in the on-page project you can crawl not only complete domains with all subdomains and subdirectories, but also individual components. When creating the project you specify whether the entire domain, a subdomain or a specific directory should be analysed. The selection can be changed in the project settings – but note that previously collected data should then no longer be used for comparison with the current crawl.

The crawler is typically started once per week. In the project settings you can choose between manual start, weekly, bi-weekly or four-weekly crawling. In addition, an immediate crawl can be triggered at any time via the "Restart crawler" button, or a running crawl can be stopped.
