FAQ
Questions people ask before scanning.
Short answers about access, reports, saved history, supporter scans, and what NotSlop can and cannot tell you.
Quick answer
You paste a URL. NotSlop returns a focused site review.
The scan is built for a practical first pass before launch, a redesign, or a client handoff.
Enter a public URL
Use a homepage, pricing page, product page, or staging URL that the scanner can reach.
Read the evidence
The report points to unclear wording, missing proof, weak trust signals, and simple SEO issues.

What does NotSlop scan?
NotSlop scans the URL you enter and tries to review the homepage plus useful internal pages such as pricing, product, about, contact, FAQ, and proof pages.
It skips pages that are not useful for a website review, such as legal pages, feeds, login pages, and static files.
The scan focuses on what a visitor can read and what a search crawler can reach. If an important page is blocked, missing, or hard to discover, the report may mention that too.
What does the report look for?
The report looks for unclear wording, vague claims, missing proof, repeated layouts, unclear calls to action, thin trust signals, and basic SEO issues.
It also checks whether important claims have evidence nearby. That evidence can be a number, screenshot, customer name, example, testimonial, source, or clear product detail.
The report is meant to help you decide what to fix first. It is not trying to rewrite your whole site at once.
Can it scan locked pages?
Yes, if you provide a login URL, username, and password. NotSlop signs in, captures the session, and uses that session while collecting page copy.
Some sites use multi-factor login, bot checks, or single sign-on. Those may still block the scan.
Only enter credentials for a site you own, manage, or have permission to test. Avoid accounts that contain sensitive personal or customer data.
Are reports private?
Reports are not public marketing pages. A report can only be opened by the account or guest session that created it.
If you sign in after a guest scan, NotSlop moves that guest report into your account when possible.
Report URLs should still be treated with care. Do not share a report link with someone unless you are comfortable with them seeing the audit.
How many scans do I get?
Guests get one scan. Signed-in accounts get three scans.
Buy Me a Coffee Pro supporters get 15 scans when their membership email matches their NotSlop Google email.
Pro also adds Audience Mode and before/after progress plans for repeat scans of the same site.
What does Pro add?
Pro gives you more scan room, plus reports that can be tailored to a product type or buyer view.
Audience Mode can focus the report on SaaS, agency, ecommerce, local business, AI tool, portfolio, newsletter, course/product, buyer, investor, recruiter, busy customer, or enterprise buyer needs.
If you rescan the same site, the progress plan shows what improved, what repeated, and what to fix next.
Does it include an SEO check?
Yes. NotSlop checks simple SEO basics such as crawler access, sitemap presence, readable page copy, structured data, internal links, and proof that can be quoted.
This does not guarantee rankings. It shows whether your pages give search systems clearer material to read and understand.
Does NotSlop replace a human review?
No. It gives a fast first pass and points to likely weak spots.
Use it to decide what to fix first, then review the changes yourself before publishing.
A human still needs to choose the right proof, decide what claims are fair, and make sure the final page sounds like the company.
Is NotSlop an AI detector?
No. NotSlop does not claim to prove whether copy was written by AI.
It reviews the quality of the page itself. A page can be human-written and still vague. It can also use AI help and still be specific, useful, and well supported.
