Host your status page on a custom domain
Every StatusGator status page is automatically available on a default StatusGator domain (e.g., yourcompany.statusgator.app), allowing you to go live instantly.
If you prefer a more branded experience, you can set up a custom domain like status.yourcompany.com that reflects your organization and feels seamless to your users.
Set up a custom domain
Follow these steps to point your own domain to your StatusGator page:
- From your board, go to Status Page in the left menu to access the General tab.
- Scroll down to the Domain section and choose the Custom domain option.
- Enter your preferred domain (e.g.,
status.yourcompany.com). - Click Save.
- In your DNS provider, create a CNAME record pointing your domain to the randomly generated hostname provided in the configuration. This hostname remains valid even if your DNS settings change later.
Once the DNS record propagates, your status page will be accessible at your custom domain.
Important: StatusGator uses Let’s Encrypt to issue SSL/TLS certificates automatically. Ensure your DNS setup responds globally—regionally restricted DNS could prevent successful certificate issuance. Also ensure that your domain's CAA record, if set, allows "letsencrypt.org" to issue certificates.
