SitePing: The Self-Hosted Feedback Tool That Survives Layout Changes

SitePing addresses a fundamental weakness of SaaS feedback tools like Marker.io: expensive subscriptions and annotations that break when pages redesign. By combining intelligent anchoring—CSS selectors, XPath, and text matching—with percentage-based rectangle positioning, SitePing keeps annotations accurate even after major layout changes. This self-hosted, open-source approach gives developers complete data control while eliminating monthly costs, making reliable client feedback collection accessible to freelancers and small teams.
