Webspector provides serveral options for adding URLs. Chances are, you have a list of URLs in mind. If you already know the address of a page you wish to add, click the 'Add a URL' button on the second screen of the Wizard to enter the desired URL.

Upon clicking the button, Webspector will display the Add/Edit URL window, allowing you to enter the appropriate information. For example, if you wanted to monitor a general news site, you might type 'http://www.cnn.com' into the 'URL' field and 'CNN Interactive' into the 'Description:' field, as shown below.

Since you do not always want to be notified of every single change, Webspector lets you place limits on page downloads. Click the 'Advanced Features' tab of the Add/Edit URL window to further customize download restrictions. Then, to reduce the possibility of a page change due to a rotating advertisement, for example, type '400' into the Size Threshold field. This means that if the page is less than 400 bytes bigger or smaller than the previous version, Webspector will not recognize the page as having been modified.
To avoid excessive clutter in your WebBoxes, you may also want to specify that Webspector only keep the latest version of a particular page. To enable this option, check the 'Keep Only Latest Page' checkbox.
