Short answer

Explains site onboarding, URL validation, automatic uptime checks, scheduled audits, and the difference between real visitor data and simulated test data.

Set up a site

Add a site and run the first audit. nimo will monitor uptime, store history, and use that context when you ask questions.

Add your site

Open the dashboard

Sign in and choose Add site. Use the public URL your visitors use, including the protocol, for example https://example.com.

Start the first audit

nimo queues the audit, checks the URL, pulls available Chrome field data, runs a simulated test, and builds the report.

Review the first finding

Read the plain-language verdict first. It is meant to answer: what is slow, why it matters, and what to do next.

Hint

Add production pages, not staging pages, when you want search and real visitor context. Staging can still be useful for a quick simulated check.

Choose the right schedule

Paid plans can use weekly, daily, or manual audit schedules. You can also run a manual audit any time you make a change and want a before-after check.

Use weekly audits when your site changes occasionally. Use daily audits when the page is tied to paid traffic, high-value SEO traffic, checkout, lead capture, or client reporting.

Understand the data sources

Real visitor data

Chrome field data shows what real visitors experienced. It is the primary source when available because it reflects many visits, not one test run.

Simulated test data

Lighthouse-style lab data helps diagnose why a page is slow. It is useful, but it is not the same as what real visitors saw.

Page inspection

nimo can inspect page structure, scripts, images, and common performance patterns when answering chat questions.

Connected integrations

Google, Ahrefs, Cloudflare, and MCP connections add traffic, SEO, infrastructure, and workspace context.

Manage site settings

Use site settings to change schedules, run manual audits, compare history, connect integrations, and remove sites you no longer want nimo to monitor.

Keep the first setup simple

Add one important page first. After you trust the recommendations, add the rest of your money pages or client sites.

Add your first site

Start with one production URL and let nimo build the first report.
