Feature
Broken Page Monitoring
NorthDuty helps teams find broken pages that still appear online: blank screens, missing content, broken buttons, failed forms, JavaScript errors, API issues, and incomplete page loads.
Broken pages often hide behind successful status codes
A page can return 200 OK while visitors see a broken experience. The hero section may disappear, the CTA may stop working, a form may fail, or critical content may never render because JavaScript or an API dependency failed.
NorthDuty broken page monitoring focuses on the visible and functional page problems that cost leads, sales, trust, and support time even when basic uptime checks look healthy.
What broken page monitoring helps detect
Use broken page monitoring when the risk is not just downtime, but an incomplete or unusable customer experience.
Missing buttons and forms
Monitor high-value pages where a missing CTA, broken form, or dead click can directly reduce conversion.
JavaScript and resource failures
Spot front-end errors and failed resources that prevent the page from becoming usable.
API-dependent page breakage
Detect cases where backend or third-party services leave product data, account content, checkout, or search unusable.
Why broken page monitoring matters
Broken page issues are easy to miss until a customer, client, or sales team reports them.
- Catch problems that status-code-only checks miss
- Protect landing pages, pricing pages, product pages, forms, and checkout steps
- Find regressions after releases, CMS edits, plugin updates, and third-party changes
- Reduce lost conversions from missing or unusable page elements
- Give teams clearer evidence when a page is online but still broken
How NorthDuty broken page monitoring works
NorthDuty combines page checks, browser context, screenshots, and journey signals to surface broken pages earlier.
1
Select pages where breakage would hurt
Prioritize pages that drive traffic, sales, signups, leads, support deflection, or customer access.
2
Check for visible and functional problems
Monitor for blank screens, missing elements, failed resources, JavaScript errors, and related page health signals.
3
Use screenshots and journeys for context
Add screenshot comparison and user journey monitoring where visual quality or multi-step behavior matters.
4
Alert before the issue spreads
Give the team enough context to respond before the broken page quietly costs more traffic or revenue.

Answers to common questions about this monitoring feature and when teams should use it.
What is broken page monitoring?
Broken page monitoring checks whether important pages are visibly complete and usable, not only whether they return a successful response.
Can a page be broken while still online?
Yes. A page can be reachable and still have missing buttons, blank content, broken forms, JavaScript errors, API failures, or layout regressions.
Which pages should use broken page monitoring?
Start with landing pages, pricing pages, product pages, lead forms, checkout steps, login pages, signup pages, and any route tied to revenue or customer access.
How is broken page monitoring different from uptime monitoring?
Uptime monitoring focuses on reachability. Broken page monitoring focuses on whether the page is actually usable and complete for visitors.
