Adding and removing sites

Pick which sites DomainDash keeps an eye on. Add new sites in seconds and remove ones you no longer need.

Overview

Enter a domain and DomainDash starts its uptime checks, response time tracking, SSL checks, DNS health checks, and domain registration alerts straight away. When you no longer need a site, you can remove it from its detail page.

Adding a site

1. Click Add site

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

   If you've organised your sites into groups, each group section also has its own Add site shortcut.

2. Enter the 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/about, DomainDash will extract the domain for you.

3. Choose where to check from

   We'll suggest the location closest to you as your primary check location. Click Change if you'd rather check from somewhere else. On paid plans and on the trial DomainDash adds a second location automatically (the nearest one to the primary) unless you pick one yourself. Starter alternates between the two locations, and Pro and Business check from both every time.

   If you opened the modal from a group's Add site shortcut, the new site is added to that group automatically.

4. Confirm and start checking

   Click Add site. DomainDash immediately begins running checks in the background. You'll be taken back to your dashboard, where the new site appears in your site list and is highlighted briefly so you can spot it.

   Results start showing up within seconds, and a fuller picture builds over the first few minutes as data comes in from each type of check.

Site limits and extra sites

Each plan includes a set number of sites. The Free plan includes one, and the 30-day trial includes 15. Starter, Pro and Business each include more than Free, and let you add extra sites beyond the plan's limit for an additional charge.

To compare how many sites each plan includes, see Plans and pricing.

When you try to add a site that would exceed your plan's allowance, the Add site modal shows a warning with the extra cost before you confirm. The charge is prorated from the day you add the site.

If you'd get better value from the next plan up, DomainDash suggests the upgrade in the modal.

Check your plan

Not sure how many sites your plan includes? Head to Choose your plan to compare your options, or visit Settings → Plan & invoices to see your current allowance.

Removing a site

You remove a site from its detail page.

1. Open the site

   From your dashboard, click the site you want to remove to open its detail page.

2. Open the site menu

   Click the three-dot menu in the top-right corner of the site toolbar and select Remove site.

3. Confirm removal

   Click Remove site in the confirmation dialog.

Data is permanently deleted

When you remove a site, all check data for that site (uptime history, response time charts, SSL checks, DNS records, and incident history) is permanently deleted. This can't be undone. If you only want to stop checks for a while, pause the site instead. Pausing keeps everything in place and you can resume any time.

Removing a site frees up a slot on your plan, so you can add a different site in its place.
