VisualPing vs Blit: What are the differences?
Developers describe VisualPing as "Get notified on visual changes of a website or website area". VisualPing is a simple service for monitoring websites for changes. You'll recieve a notification when it detects any change in the content of the page. You can use it for price tracking, ticket & product availability checks, competition monitoring, or just to check your facebook-likes, twitter followers etc... On the other hand, Blit is detailed as "Schedule screenshots of your website to your inbox". It is an app that takes screenshots of any website and sends them to your inbox. You can schedule them hourly, daily, weekly or whenever you want. The best part is that you'll be the first to know if your favorite web page posts a new update or if your personal website takes a turn for the worst.
VisualPing and Blit can be primarily classified as "Visual Website Monitoring" tools.
Some of the features offered by VisualPing are:
- Enter the web address of a webpage and VisualPing will create a screenshot image of that page.
