Quick Start
This guide walks you through setting up Auditoro and running your first website scan so you can start monitoring it over time.
1. Create Your Account

2. Start Your Free Trial
New accounts automatically start with a 14-day free trial of the Starter plan. During the trial you can:
- Add up to 10 sites
- Run up to 30 scans
- Access all check types and features
No credit card required to start your trial.
3. Add Your First Site
From the dashboard, click Add Site and enter your website URL:
https://example.com
Auditoro will attempt to:
- Detect your sitemap at common locations (
/sitemap.xml,/sitemap_index.xml) - Verify the site is accessible
- Create the site in your account
4. Verify Site Ownership
Before running scans, verify you own the site by adding a DNS TXT record. This prevents unauthorized scanning.
See Site Verification for detailed instructions for your DNS provider.
5. Run Your First Scan
Once verified, click Start Scan to begin monitoring your site. Auditoro will:
- Fetch your sitemap to discover pages
- Crawl each page (respecting robots.txt)
- Run all quality checks
- Calculate your health score
- Display categorized issues
Scan duration depends on site size. A typical 50-page site completes in a few minutes.
