Know your website is working —
even when you're not watching.
Magnolia Monitor runs daily Lighthouse audits, uptime checks, broken link scans, and AI-readiness checks on every page — then explains what to do in plain English, with the tools built in to actually fix it.

Your bakery photo takes too long to show up
Visitors see a blank space for nearly 4 seconds before the photo of your bread loads.

The Report
A site audit that reads like a letter, not a stack trace.
We run Lighthouse audits, uptime checks, broken link scans, and AI-readiness checks — then we translate. Every finding gets a plain-language explanation, an effort estimate, and a one-click way to fix it.
Plain language by default
No Largest Contentful Paint. No render-blocking. Just "your bakery photo takes 4 seconds to load, and here's how to fix it."
Sorted by what actually matters
We rank every finding by how much it would lift your score and how long it takes to fix. The biggest wins, first.
Track every week, see the trend
Weekly snapshots and trend lines on every score. When something slips, you'll know — and so will we.
Technical mode for when you need it
One toggle and you get every metric, every threshold, the raw JSON, and a download link to the original Lighthouse report. Hand it to your developer.

Six built-in tools
Not just what to fix — the fix itself.
Other tools tell you your images are too big. We compress them, generate the responsive variants, and hand you the HTML to paste back. Same for fonts, structured data, and everything else.
Image Optimizer
Compress, convert to AVIF/WebP, and generate responsive variants. We give you the <picture> tag to paste.
Font Converter
Convert Google Fonts (or any TTF/OTF) to self-hosted woff2 with @font-face rules. Saves around 65%.
llms.txt Builder
Answer three questions; we draft the file AI assistants read to summarize your business correctly.
Schema Generator
Generate structured data markup (JSON-LD) for your business so you appear in rich results and AI overviews.
Contrast Checker
Check any color pair for WCAG compliance and get accessible alternatives with a single click.
Performance Report
Download the full Lighthouse report as a PDF to share with your developer or keep for your records.
For the AI era
ChatGPT, Claude, and Google AI are already describing your business.
When someone asks "where can I get sourdough in Portland?", AI assistants pull from your site to answer. We check that they can find the right information — and help you give them what they need.
- llms.txt — the file AI agents check first. We write yours in 30 seconds.
- Structured data — the labels that put you in rich results and AI overviews.
- Crawlable content — JavaScript-rendered text AI bots can't read flagged with how to fix.
- AI mention monitoring — we check what ChatGPT says about your business each week. (coming soon)

Questions
Things small business owners actually ask.
Do I need any technical knowledge?
Honestly, no. We translate every Lighthouse finding into plain English, rank them by impact, and provide the tools to fix the most common issues. If you can use Gmail, you can use Magnolia Monitor.
Will this work with my website builder?
Yes — Squarespace, Wix, Webflow, Showit, WordPress, and custom-built sites all work. We test the live URL, so the platform doesn't matter.
What's the difference between this and Google Lighthouse / PageSpeed Insights?
Lighthouse gives you a score and a list of technical issues. We run the same audit, then translate the findings into plain English, prioritize them by impact, and give you one-click tools to fix the most common ones.
How is uptime monitoring different from the audits?
The daily audit is a deep dive — it checks performance, accessibility, SEO, and best practices. Uptime monitoring is a simple heartbeat check every few minutes that confirms your site is responding. They're complementary.
Can my developer / agency see the technical details?
Yes. Every report has a Technical Mode toggle that shows raw metrics, thresholds, element-level data, and a link to the full Lighthouse JSON. You can also share the report URL directly.
What about my privacy?
We only store what you give us: your URL and email. We don't read your site's content beyond what a normal browser visit would access. Your data is never sold or shared.
