Your First Website Scan: What to Check and Do Next

Add a site, record a useful baseline and choose a practical next action without unnecessary repeat scans.

Published 2025-06-01Reviewed 2026-09-15 2 min read

Start with a website you own or have permission to manage. Free Scan covers one website and up to 50 pages, with a limited AI visibility sample and a preview of the fix queue. Use it to understand the findings before planning delivery on an eligible paid plan.

  1. 1Create your account at https://app.answermetrix.com and add the public domain you intend to manage.
  2. 2Review your business brief: name, services, location, audience and competitor domains should be accurate.
  3. 3Check whether a useful completed scan already exists before starting another.
  4. 4Start the scan and follow its recorded status. Site size, access restrictions and provider availability affect timing.
  5. 5When it completes, read the date, pages checked, findings and any unavailable coverage.

Read scores in context

A score summarises recorded checks. It is not a prediction of leads or a universal benchmark against other businesses. Failed or interrupted runs can retain partial work; they are not a new completed baseline.

Move from findings to action

Choose an issue on a page that matters to your customers. Read the supporting evidence, then inspect the proposed change if one is available. If the queue is empty, check the saved scan findings and coverage before deciding whether more work is needed.

In AnswerMetrix

Review the proposed change, confirm its facts and check delivery support for your website. After authorising an eligible fix, inspect the delivery record and the separate live-page check. Use your CMS or developer for work the connection cannot deliver.

Choose Autopilot for eligible automatic delivery, Managed for guided review and batch actions, or Expert for individual fixes and detailed tools. Check your enabled permissions as well as the mode: existing automation can still run during scans. Your plan and website connection determine which actions are available.

No credit card required. Ongoing delivery needs an eligible plan and a supported connection.
