Add your first site

Start checking a site in under a minute. All DomainDash needs is the domain.

Overview

Once you've created your account and team, you can add a site straight away. Enter a domain and DomainDash starts its checks within seconds. You don't install an agent, add a script, or change your DNS.

How to add a site

1. Click Add site

   From your dashboard, click the Add site button in the top-right corner. If you haven't added any sites yet, you'll also see an Add your first site button in the centre of the page.

2. Enter your domain

   Type or paste the domain you want to check, for example example.com. If you paste a full URL (like https://www.example.com/page), we'll extract the domain automatically.

3. Confirm and start checking

   Click Add site in the modal. DomainDash immediately starts checking your site for uptime, response times, and SSL certificate health.

   You'll be taken back to your dashboard, where the new site appears in your site list.

What happens next

DomainDash runs these checks in the background:

• Uptime: we check your site regularly to make sure it's responding
• Response time: we track how quickly your site responds so you can spot slowdowns
• SSL certificate: we check your certificate is valid and warn you before it expires
• DNS records (your domain's routing configuration): we watch for unexpected changes
• Domain registration: we keep an eye on when your domain expires

Results start appearing on your dashboard within a few seconds. The picture fills in as the first few rounds of checks come back.

Plan limits

Each plan includes a set number of sites. The 30-day trial includes 15, and your free trial explains what happens to them when it ends. Paid plans raise the limit, and you can add extra sites on top of any paid plan. See choose your plan for the details.
