Sound familiar?
Your site changes while you’re not looking.
Plugin deactivated overnight
An update conflict quietly took out a plugin. You found out when a customer mentioned the checkout was broken.
Database errors piling up
Corrupted tables and collation mismatches build up silently — slowing your site before they cause real damage.
404 flood draining your SEO
Bots and broken links generate hundreds of 404s a day. Nobody’s watching. Your search rankings slowly erode.

Seven modules. One morning digest.
Each module runs on its own schedule and feeds into a single daily report — so you always know what’s happening, without logging into anything.

Quick answers
Common questions
Does Canary Site Monitor slow down my site?
No. All monitoring runs on WP-Cron schedules during low-traffic periods and adds no overhead to front-end page loads.
What’s the difference between Free and Pro?
Free covers the three core monitoring modules with dashboard alerts. Pro adds the morning digest email, debug log analysis, ad interference detection, and licence health monitoring.
Can I use Canary Site Monitor on client sites?
Yes — a single Pro licence covers one site. Agencies managing multiple sites can install on each site under separate licences.
