Site detail page

Everything DomainDash knows about one site, all in one place.

Overview

When you click a site on your dashboard, you land on the site detail page. It summarises how the site is doing right now: uptime stats, response time trends, SSL certificate health, DNS configuration, and domain registration status. The page updates in real time, so you don't need to refresh it.

The site toolbar

At the top of the page is a toolbar with the site's domain, its current status badge, and a few controls:

• Back arrow takes you back to your dashboard.
• Timeframe selector lets you switch between different time windows (last hour, 24 hours, 7 days, 30 days, and more) to see how your site has performed over that period. On desktop this appears as a row of tabs; on mobile it's a dropdown.
• Site menu (three-dot icon) opens a menu with quick actions:
  • Incidents to see this site's incident history
  • Settings to go to the site's configuration page
  • Pause checks or Resume checks to temporarily stop or restart all checks for this site without removing it
  • Remove site to permanently delete the site and all its data

Status badge

The status badge in the toolbar shows the most pressing thing about the site. When more than one row applies, the one higher in the table wins:

Status	What it means
Paused	Checks have been temporarily turned off for this site.
Setup failed	The very first checks couldn't complete. Open Settings to review the details and retry.
Down	The site isn't responding, is returning an error or a response that doesn't match its Expected response setting, or has failed a content check. The badge shows from the first failed check. DomainDash alerts you once it's confirmed.
Recovering	The site has started responding again after being down, but DomainDash hasn't confirmed it's stable yet.
Domain expired	The domain's registration has lapsed.
Domain expiring	The domain expires in 1 day or less.
Security expired	The SSL certificate has expired.
Security problem	The SSL certificate is invalid for another reason.
Unstable	Uptime is under 97% in the selected timeframe.
Domain expiring	The domain expires in 7 days or less. Shown only while uptime is healthy.
Security expiring	The SSL certificate expires within 30 days. Shown only while uptime is healthy.
Healthy	The site is responding normally.
Needs attention	The site is responding, but slowly: a response took 1000ms or more.
Pending	A brand-new site that's waiting for its first results.

Only the uptime check can make a site Down. A certificate or domain problem by itself shows on the badge as above without making the site Down. The exception is a secure connection that fails outright (a failed TLS handshake): the uptime check connects over HTTPS, so it fails too and the site shows Down. DNS has no badge of its own: a failing DNS check marks the Domain routing card Failing.

Alert banner

If something needs your attention, like an ongoing incident, an expired SSL certificate, or an unexpected response code, an alert banner appears just below the toolbar. It tells you what the problem is and how long it's been going on, and links to more detail where relevant. Click the banner to open the full incident detail page, where you can see a timeline of everything that's happened and post updates for your team.

Summary stats

Below the alert area, a summary strip shows three numbers for the selected timeframe:

• Uptime: the percentage of checks that came back healthy. Anything above 99.5% is highlighted in green.
• Average response time: how quickly your site typically responds, in milliseconds. Under 300ms shows in green, 300--800ms in amber, and above 800ms in red.
• Total checks: how many individual uptime checks DomainDash ran in this timeframe.

Response time chart

The main chart shows your site's response time over the selected timeframe as a continuous line. Each point represents an individual check. If you've added a second check location, a second line appears in a different colour so you can compare performance between your primary and secondary locations.

Below the chart, a View uptime details link takes you to the full uptime page with individual check history and timing breakdowns.

Adding a location from the chart

Plan availability

Multi-location checks is available on Starter, Pro and Business. See the plan comparison.

If you haven't set up a second check location yet, you can do it directly from the chart. Click a location pill above the chart and confirm in the dialog that appears. DomainDash will start checking your site from that location straight away.

SSL, DNS, and registration cards

Below the response time chart, three cards cover the other checks: Security, Domain routing, and Domain registration. Each one opens a page of the same name.

SSL certificate card

The Security card shows whether your site's SSL certificate is valid, along with:

• How many days are left before it expires
• A progress indicator showing how far through the certificate's lifetime you are
• The current SSL status (valid, expiring soon, expired, or invalid)

If the certificate is invalid, the card says why in plain English. A View security details link opens the Security page.

DNS card

The Domain routing card shows the current state of your site's DNS (Domain Name System) configuration, labelled Healthy, Failing, Pending, or Paused. If DNS is healthy, you'll see a summary of the key records. If something has changed or looks wrong, the card flags it. View routing details opens the Domain routing page.

Domain registration card

The Domain registration card shows when your domain was registered, when it expires, and how many days are left on the registration. It reads Expiring at 30 days or less, Expiring soon at 7 days or less, and Expired once the registration has lapsed. View registration details opens the Domain registration page.

Paused checks

If you've turned off a specific type of check (for example, SSL or DNS) in your site settings, the relevant card shows as paused rather than displaying data. Re-enable it at any time.
