Guides and playbooks on the things that quietly cost websites money: errors nobody reports, funnels that leak, forms that fail in silence. Written for owners, useful to agents.
Guides: askbowtie in action
- How I Ran an AI Content Audit on My Own Site
An AI content audit in one sitting: I pointed my agent at my own Search Console and analytics, and it graded all 27 pages. The exact prompt, and what it found.
- How I Find a Silently Broken Form With AI
A form can fail silently for weeks while every monitor shows green. Here's the exact playbook I run to find the broken element and the deploy that broke it.
- How I Diagnose a Sudden Conversion Drop
When conversions drop, the cause is usually split across four tools. Here's how I ask one question and let my AI agent join them into a fast diagnosis.
- How I Give My AI Agent Memory Between Sessions
My AI agent forgets when the session ends. Here's how notes give every project a memory: one log per site, readable across all of them, so nothing is relearned.
MCP
- Model Context Protocol for your website
The practical hub: what MCP is, which servers matter, and how to point an AI agent at your live traffic, errors, and conversions.
- The best MCP servers for your website
Most lists cover your codebase. This one covers your live site too, with an honest rundown of what each server connects and where it stops.
- Connect your site to Claude
Three steps to let your agent read your real site: add the tag, connect the server, then just ask.
- The analytics your AI agent can read
When your agent is the one asking, an MCP that serves joined, queryable site data beats a dashboard.
Analytics
- Section Engagement Analytics: See What Converts
Pageviews can't tell you which part of a page visitors use. Tag your sections and page role with two HTML attributes, then see which parts drive conversions.
Error monitoring
- Website Error Monitoring Guide
Catch JavaScript errors, broken elements, and silent failures before they cost you conversions. A practical guide to error monitoring that connects bugs to revenue.
- Silent Failures Your Error Tracker Can't See
Uptime is green, the error tracker is quiet, but users are still stuck on a dead button. How askbowtie detects the silent failures that throw zero errors.
- Prioritizing Errors by Revenue Impact
Sorting errors by frequency is wrong. Use this framework to decide which JavaScript errors to fix first based on actual business impact, not volume.
Conversions
- Conversion Funnel Leaks: Find Where Sessions End
Your funnel's leak is already in your data. Sort pages by exit rate to find where sessions end, then join errors and performance to learn why they leave.
Performance
- Website Performance & Uptime Monitoring
Monitor site speed, Core Web Vitals, and uptime in one place. Know when your site is slow or down before your visitors do — and fix it fast.
Fixes
- Website Fixes: Step-by-Step Troubleshooting
Fix broken forms, checkout failures, plugin conflicts, and slow pages. Platform-specific solutions for WordPress, Shopify, and general web issues.
- Find a Silently Failing Form Fast
A form can show a success message while losing every submission. How to detect silent form failures from error and conversion signals, and trace where it dies.
- Shopify Checkout Problems: See Hidden Drop-Off
Shopify checkout runs on Shopify's servers, so you can't see where buyers leave. How to detect the checkout drop-off from exit rates and conversion data.
The tracker
- How askbowtie Works
What the tracker script does, what data it collects, what it doesn't, and how it keeps your site fast and your visitors' data private.
- Install the askbowtie tracker
Add askbowtie to any site with one line of code. Copy-paste steps for plain HTML, WordPress, Shopify, Google Tag Manager, and Cloudflare. 9.8 KB loader, cookieless, no PII.
- JavaScript API
Report conversions, errors, and custom events from your own code with the askbowtie JavaScript API: bowtie.converted(), bowtie.error(), bowtie.track().
- Cookieless Tracking
How askbowtie tracks sessions without cookies — and how to keep it that way when adding server-side conversions, payment webhooks, or custom integrations.
- Security & Data
How askbowtie handles your data — what's public, what's authenticated, how sites are isolated, and the CSP directives to allow the tracker.
